    I saw this movie last night. It's one of the weirdest movies I've ever seen. I didn't even know where the plot was going until over half way through the movie. Every character in the movie is either crazy or a stalker. I'm not saying it was a bad movie. Just really strange.

    I saw an advance screening. I enjoyed it. It was much different and a lot better than I thought.

    Really? Wow. I had the opposite reaction. This is just my opinion, but I felt it went on forever to tell a story that really had no compelling conclusion. Sure it has twists and turns, but by the time the truth was revealed about what happened, I was like "That's it?" I mean it wasn't straight up awful, but I walked out glad that I didn't pay for the ticket.

    What about "Dorme"? How was Rose's performance?

    I have to agree. I went and saw this yesterday afternoon and I thought it was terrible. The whole movie is slow and the twist are not good enough to change your opinion at the end. I made it through the while thing but was not very happy when I left.

    It's a remake of a french film called "L'Apartement"..

    The basic plot, from what i've heard:

    "This "Hitchcockian" thriller tells the story of a young Chicago investment banker (Hartnett) who becomes obsessed with a woman he sees in a cafe, believing her to be his long-lost love, following her home to her apartment, where he waits for her, going so far as to put his engagement on hold. His search soon sends him down a dangerous path..."


    I've heard really bad things, and the trailers looked pretty horrid (Rose Byrne's performance looked CRINGE worthy..)
