Bradley Cooper plays a freelance photographer who is sent into the night by a demanding art director (Brooke Shields) and ends up on the trail of a serial killer (Vinnie Jones).
I won't mince words here, the storyline is great until the ending. They give you a flash of something stupid coming around midway through the film, but you hold out hope that they don't go that route. Unfortunately, they do go that route and it ruins an otherwise, very good psychological thriller.
The ending seems completely tacked on. It's like they came up with the idea for the killer, and once they had the story fleshed out realized he couldn't exactly get away with it unless...
The acting is fine, and everybody brings their A game, but Vinnie Jones is fantastic in this film. He doesn't get many lines, but all of his facials ae exactly what they should be for this character.
This is worth a rental for horror fans and is creepy enough to make you look over your shoulder the next time you're on a subway.
Just remember that I warned you about the ending...
This movie would've easily received an 8 out of 10 from me, but the ending makes it...
5 out of 10.
