Beautiful thriller -- no kidding!
13 November 2003
This was a good movie, but I was expecting quite the thriller. Instead I found it disturbing enough, but completely overwhelmed by art direction and set design. The lighting, the ambiance, and everything else the two aforementioned departments were involved in creating, were nothing short of a slice of Americana worth preserving for future generations, as has already been done.

And the movie itself? As someone mentioned at an earlier date on this board, it is very uneven. The first half and second half seem only awkwardly linked. Yet, the entire production is worth watching although it's a bit slow in parts, and doesn't maintain the tempo of a good thriller. In closing, you have to see it for yourself; this film depicting the battle between good and evil is much too different from others of the same genre, and thus difficult to label.
