A very good movie until after the bus scene, then it falls apart. Scene involving Kidman, Penn and African President very Hokey, and should have been eliminated. Unfortunate.
The plot is definitely suspenseful. Overall I don`t regret paying that 7.5 bucks even penn underperformed in some scenes and made them kind of awkward
Excellent movie, great story line, however you have to pay complete attention or you may get lost!
I thought this was a wonderful film,great acting from Kidman and Penn. It seems that unless there is action every minute, people are bored, so I do not recommend this for(late teens and twenties). Hello!!!! there is a story here!!!! ADULTS ONLY PLEASE!!!!!
fanstastic, intelligent movie! Lots of suspense. Great role for Kidman. Nice to see an intelligente woman`s role. (PS for the person who thought it was a "chick flick" - if the person in Kidman`s role was a male would you say that?)
Good movie but could have been cut down a fair bit. Sean Penn`s acting was very good.
Wonderfully suspenseful. Writing was a little strained at times. Overall great movie. Entertaining.
Very well done. The suspense builds throughout the movie and is not just thrown into one`s face. People...you have to wait for it... that`s what makes it suspenseful! Good performances by Kidman and Penn - I was glad to see he can be just as effective and engaging when playing a `quiet` character as when he goes all out and over the top! If you think a movie should be like an amusement park ride.. don`t see this film ... you`ll be disappointed.
The world has been going through hell. The movie represents the fact that we should always stand for the things that we support. It`s important to be on our own way. Lastly I want to say no more kepela....
Great film.. Intersting and gripping. Nicole Kidman and Sean Penn are really good!!!
