Don't Bother!
By LolM (2 reviews) from London , 28 Mar 2008[Highly rated reviewer]
Absolutely dreadful. I was conned into this by the trailer which made it look original, interesting, clever, and full of imaginative twists. Unfortunately it's a cheap and unintentionally comical parody of the Hollywood blockbuster with all the usual clichés, car chases and happy endings. All the goodies survive car crashes, being shot, blown up, while the baddies get what's coming to them. By the fifth 'vantage point' (the same scene being repeated again and again and again and again from a different points of view) I was ready to shoot myself. But being boring is its best point, other than that, it panders to American patriotism and arrogance with a lazy and ridiculously unbelievable script and laughable symbolism. Forest Whitaker made a mistake agreeing to this. Should have gone straight to TV.- Was this review helpful to you?

surprisingly very good
By cheesekake (1282 reviews) from uk , 08 Jan 2013I really didn't think that I'd enjoy this film simply when I read the blib, but when I watched it I was pretty hooked, its got lots of action and some great stuff in. worthy of a watch, even if it is just once- Was this review helpful to you?

Advantage no-one
By Timbob16 (7 reviews) , 10 Sep 2012I was drawn into the concept of this film, one significant event revisited from different view points to piece together in what would inevitably be quite clichéd but remain enjoyable. Half right.
A promising beginning evolves into a predictable, stereotypical 'thriller' spitting blood and fire about the place like a dragon with laryngitis. The implausible character interchanges and impossible fortuity takes liberties with every bad directors best friend; 'suspension of disbelief'.
A great cast, a great opportunity and a great disappointment- Was this review helpful to you?

Russian Doll
By a customer , 29 Aug 2012At the beginning had not realised the film had twists until you see the film unravel from different aspects from the characters. At one stage I thought it was ground hog day but keep watching and you will be pleastanly surprised.- Was this review helpful to you?
