Review title: Starts good - gets tiresome
Product review: I was struck by the brutal realism of the first half, but then was highly disappointed by the time it was over. The problem with this movie is as follows: the family that's being terrorized is left with NO options and NO way out. Frankly put, this gets boring. Even if you are a sadist that simply wants to see graphic violence, there's not much of it, and nothing is what I would consider 'graphic'. This movie plays on the terror of a husband, wife, and small child being held captive by two "psychopaths", which is VERY scary and disturbing. However, when one of the psychopaths "rewinds" the movie to change an outcome, or when he stops to converse with the viewer, I felt the director ruined a perfectly good film to try something "different". I condone experimentation and breaking away from the norm, but it does NOT work in this film. Prepare to be disappointed.
