Danny K @king3107 Jun 15 Such a shame. Brian de Palma built tension really well and we get a classic De Palma train station jeopardy scene near the end. But in the end, too many plot holes, and a really disappointing ending. The making of the 'film' of the car crash was quite clever, but obviously flawed. Then using the actual photo's was also clever (but are we to really believe that the photographer took a stream of photo's?). The building of the tension, especially with Lithgow's character was quite nice if a little hurried. But the last 20 minutes was really rushed, and are we really to believe that Travolta can drive through the middle of a city, not be arrested, with a wire, and be left alone asleep in the back of an ambulance? And he killed someone, where did the body go? And no arrest for that? And the whole film was just for a recording of a scream. Massive wasted opportunity for a potentially brilliant film ending.

Some parts near the end are hard to believe. He drives through a parade and doesn’t get arrested? He wakes from a concussion and has no problem running around?

A must watch. See more Lucas D @Lucas.Dorner Feb 2 Good movie, great acting by John Travolta, great soundtrack, nice story however, there where still parts which felt unnecessary or dragged too much. I still really recommend this movie to everyone who likes Drama, Horror and Thriller. See more Read all reviews
