SOME PEOPLE MIGHT FIND THIS FILM INTERESTING, BUT FOR SOME ACTION OR COMEDY LOVERS, IT MIGHT NOT BE THEIR CUP OF TEA. IT'S AN ADVENTURE DRAMA FILM, WE WOULD ASSUME IT'S A BORING FILM AND INDEED IT IS, BUT PERSONALLY, I WATCH A FILM BASED ON THE SCREENPLAY, THE PERFORMANCES, AND THE PLOT. IF ONE OF THOSE GOES WRONG, IT'S NOT A GOOD FILM ANYMORE. IN THIS FILM, I GOTTA SAY GARRETT HEDLUND'S PERFORMANCE IS MIND BLOWING AND PERSONALLY IT'S AN OSCAR WORTHY. PEOPLE SAY YOU HAVE TO GO NUDE OR HAVE A SEX SCENE TO BE NOMINATED AND YEAH SOMEHOW IT'S TRUE, BUT IT DOESN'T ALWAYS HAVE TO GO THAT WAY. HEDLUND'S PERFORMANCE IN THIS FILM IS INDEED AMAZING BUT KRISTEN STEWART ON THE OTHER HAND, I'M NOT SURE, I MEAN I LOVE HER IN PANIC ROOM.

I RATE THIS FILM 7/10 OR MIXED TO POSITIVE REVIEW.
