Absolutely a great movie. And it's special to know that this movie released within 1 to 2 days of the 9/11 terrorist attacks of the World Trade Center. It did so bad in the movie theaters that the movie makers were embarrassed of this movie. That is why many of us have never heard of it. It is a very good thriller , and sure the later half of the movie unwinds at a much faster pace, but I will take it because it is a very good movie. I have not seen any other movies like this and to think it is criticized for not being very original when this was the first of its kind I had seen and I watch a lot of movies. This is a must see if you like Thrillers and suspense and the late 1990s.
