rainsong2 Jason Bateman! Of all the lovable characters he plays, this was not one of them! From the start, I was calling him a condescending pr!ck, and for good reason. I won't spoil anything. Very good movie, steady tension, great suspense. The actors were amazing, the story line perfect. Nice twists, but all in all, a good moral of the story kind of flick that makes you examine everyone you may have ever bullied! Highly recommend!
jleon25 Ok, yea it kept me interested. but starting off, the way the guy introduced himself to the couple should have raised a flag to her husband. If he did what he did to the guy, he would have remembered it and put a stop to his intrusions immediately. Just a few more issues that makes it unbelievable and outrageous. First. The guy shows up at the house the 1st time un-invited while her husband is at work. With her husband knowing the past between them, he should have addressed it immediately. When he shows up the second time, while he is at work, the ditzy wife should have put a stop to it instead of inviting him in again. Only a pollyanna would have considered him safe at this point. Well, it it was me, at this point, I would have confronted him for sure.Second, after all the conformations and both of them being aware that he has been getting in their house when they are not home, at least change the locks. The seem to be well off. They seem to have an alarm system that isn't working so well . Get it fixed, replaced, hire private security.By the time she passed out drinking the water she got from her fridge, and given how her husband had bullied him, it was all downhill and predictable. As for leaving us up in the air by not knowing if the new born father was the husband, Simon or Gordo, well this must have been written before we had DNA testing. A quick DNA test would determine who the father is, add in the video he got from Gordon in bed with his wife passed out, even with his monkey mask. Given the video and DNA test. If it was Gordo's kid, a prosecutor just out of law school would easily convict him.Sorry, it didn't impress me with the idiotic actions of the characters and it's easily predictability.One other possible ending is, Gordo told her it was his baby. Look at her face when Simon run's back in the hospital and sees his wife, in the nursery, about to start to breast feed her baby. She accepted, it since she had a soft spot in her, for Gordo from day one, even if he did rape her. She wanted a kid, and it was obviously, she no longer wanted to be with her bully husband, let alone a kid with him. So, when she is told it is not Simon's kid, she was content. Gordo did fake the injured arm when he tossed the arm sling away. Maybe that extra sympathy was enough to give him a pass on raping her. To me, this is the more probable ending. Again, given her look, as she is about to breast feed her baby, she accepted it, I think Gordo gets away with the rape. After all, she did allow him to come in her home, un-invited and without her husband present in more than one occasion. Proof enough to tell me she like him more than her husband, especially after she uncovered his past and how he got his promotion.
jogibs Behold, the unusual protagonist! So clever, but not very satisfying. I was captivated, but concurrently annoyed. Do watch, but don't hold high expectations above a 5. I LOVE Jason Bateman, and the acting is superb. Have at it while drinking with friends and accomplishing other things, but do have at it!
brittanydiane I gave the movie a 9/10 just for the fact that they leave you on a cliff.I just want to know if the baby is Gordo's or Simon's!!! This movie had my feeling all sorts of emotions throughout and it was very well told. I would highly recommend this movie.All in all. Don't be a Simon.
