Viewing Notes
Been a while since I’ve seen this so I was looking forward to the re-release. Had to tonight before it leaves theaters. Forgot a few of the twists. The puzzle / revenge elements are still quite good. What’s not good is the acting by Elwes and Whannell. Wowza they are awful. Serious overacting that nearly derails the movie it’s that bad. Everything else is so good that I can forgive this but that last scene with Elwes is laughable. Still cool to see this on the big screen since I missed it during its initial run.
