    Overrated

    I wanted to review this film and then read the first reviewer's comments...they expressed exactly what I was planning to write: This is a thriller that doesn't generate any thrills.

    It's also a whodunit that simply isn't that interesting because it's fairly obvious who IS NOT the killer and the film only comes up with one other possible option. I feel like this could have been a 1hr bottom of the bill picture and fared just as well. The acting is good and dialogue is fine, but not much happens in 100 minutes.

    I managed to purchase a pristine print with excellent subtitles because I could not find it anywhere else -- not sure if it was woth it.
