8/10. I'd say it's Edward Norton's 2nd best performance, right behind "American History X". The film is the opposite of predictable, it was very well written and thought out. Special effects were flawless. The story all comes together at the very end - you are kept waiting throughout the movie scratching your head as to how everything is going to unfold. Very suspenseful and engaging. It's worth the money to pick this one up - it was very good "rewatchability". Rotten Tomatoes rates it a 74%, which is very high for them and for once I agree with the critics ratings. - @Monday, March 30, 2015 1:24 AM
