Reviews
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
