Speechless. That is the state I was in for the most part of the ride home. This late review comes in fine from since the movie didn't open locally until July 30th. My god was it worth the wait.
Mixed reviews is what you will get with this completely different style of film. It is nothing I had ever seen. Nothing I had ever expected. It had no sex, no real violence, and just a touch of gore. It had no big name actors either. Here is what it did have. It had suspense, and an incredible ability to make your mind think. Thinking of all the countless possiblities that could've happened. At one point, perhaps the beginning, I actually felt that the movie was real. How many movies do that to you? The whole method of presentation makes the viewer be a part of it, and builds a much different atmosphere.
If you are prone to motion sickness, scared of the dark, fear the unsuspecting, you should not go see this movie. If you can handle the unknown, abnormal, and anything else, you should definitely see this. I still seem to be in a minor state of speechlessness. I can not think of anything to say other than go see it. I give it a hard core rating of 5 bright lights.
Oh yes, I'm also planning on buying it when it is availible on DVD. Apparently it will have 3 possible endings and tonnes of extra footage.

Amazing movie, i saw it twice... not as scary as some people make it to be but definitely a thinker indeed.
