Review of Lost

Lost (I) (2004)
8/10
Entertaining low-budget nonsense
4 July 2009
Prolific B-actor Dean Cain drives around, some unseen guy wants to kill him, and before you know it eighty minutes have passed. The plot outline doesn't really leave open many options, which is why the writing is that ingenious. This is a really difficult movie to turn of, mostly because of the smart plot developments and the (despite his actions) very sympathetic hero. It also has a general uncomforting style which always implies something bad is going to happen, it just doesn't tell you what exactly. The movie without a doubt benefits from its short running time, because just when it starts to drag, we really get this killer of an ending. I knew they wouldn't be playing it straight-forward, but this is really a good surprise ending. There's nothing bad I can say about this charming little movie.
