Review title: Overlong and overwrought
Product review: I hadn't read the book nor did I know about the plot prior to viewing this film.It's a fairly average thriller that relies on high level violence and sexually explicit scenes to try to push it over the top. The story is rather weak and at least 30-45 minutes too long. Despite the movie's length, there is very little character exploration, giving it a strangely hammy quality that makes supposedly serious scenes almost laughable. It just doesn't ring true and because of this, is not as suspenseful or menacing as it attempts to be. The anti-capitalist pro-socialist subtext also distracts from the story. In other words, the writer has an axe to grind in the guise of telling a story. Don't waste your time.
