Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Not a good movie, honestly. I've seen lots of stalker films, and some of them were pretty moronic, but this one takes the biscuit.Not in the least enjoyable. I'm struggling to find anything good to say about it, as I thought every aspect of it was below par.The acting was atrocious. The only plausible performance was by the blonde girl (the main character's girlfriend); everyone else was borderline incompetent IMHO. The brunette (the antagonist) seemed to be embarrassed by her own performance and uncomfortable with the part she was playing - and who can blame her, given the laughably pathetic and poorly-written character she's portraying? And why did they even need to come up with all that American-in-Australia crap? What purpose did it serve? It didn't add anything to the story and only confused the viewer, since the supposed American doesn't even sound like one. Extremely sloppy writing. As someone else here pointed out, it feels like a soap-opera, not a thriller. Very bland and one-dimensional; lacking edge and substance.Three words that come to mind: clumsy, amateurish, unrealistic.The so-called "twist" was cheesy and ridiculous; besides, I saw it coming miles away, and anyone, who's ever seen "The Sixth Sense", most certainly would. These people should have at least researched the paranormal prior to incorporating elements of it into the movie. It would have been more enjoyable had they done something more believable instead of the whole dream nonsense a la Freddy Kruger. By the way, the Freddy movies were actually believable and scary (back in the day at least), which is a lot more than I can say about this one. Anyway, I regret wasting my time with this stinker, and certainly won't be recommending it to anyone.

Chris Egan is just awful in this film. Emma Lung is a good actress, but her character is horribly underwritten. The twists are just ridiculous, the dialog is cringe-worthy and the supporting characters are pointless.This movie is a steaming pile of ass. A decent soundtrack is the one redeeming feature, but even that can't make up for the fact that this movie is worse than Gonorrhoea. What happened to Australian cinema? Why is the main character American? How did someone think that this was a good idea? I genuinely enjoyed the room more than this. If you want to watch something better, choose any film at random. It would be hard to pick something worse.

Well, I am from Perth & IMHO the only honest review on this page is from the much maligned 'Craig in Canada'.I won't reinvent the wheel; Craig hit the nail on the head. That anyone could describe this cast in such glowing terms, much less the plot & scriptwriting is beyond me.Within seconds of Egan opening his mouth, I was cringing at his awful accent. And as has been pointed out, that he is supposedly American adds nothing to the plot, so why torture us?The frat boy friends are a complete mystery. And as for the supposed 'can't see it coming from a mile off' ending....spare me. Saw it coming from about 10 minutes in.I'm all for encouraging good local film making. But this is most definitely NOT it! I can't see anyone independent of the production company who made this lemon holding the glowing views that have been expressed here. And the endless references to Nexus by name pretty much confirm that to be the case.If you're missing your dose of bad Australian soapie in the off-season, then maybe this will take the edge off. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother.

I just bought it last week and watched it and I loved it! Being a tae kwon do devotee in my younger days I loved the fight scenes and the music was fantastic. I thought Chris Egan and Emma Lung were brilliant. I faintly remember Chris Egan from Home and Away but that was a long time ago and he is a solid actor, he is perfect in this role. He doesn't look too bad either! Emma Lung is absolutely gorgeous and is an absolute standout in this movie. Her progression from seductress to something a lot more is incredible to watch. What a great story with some really neat twists. I am going out to buy some more copies for Christmas presents!
