Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

inioi The facts are perfectly applicable to real life. And there is a really serious content in its plot.Sometimes it happens in our daily lives, or when we have to take a decision, life shows us some clues that we can follow: fortuitous event, strange coincidences...But often we are not sufficiently aware of these signals, or we just don't believe in it. Later on, we realize that this could have helped us or offer us something new to our lives. And then...our problems keeps unresolved.Cliff Martinez soundtrack is amazing, as well as the filmmaking.8/10

lathe-of-heaven Basically, without going into a lot of detail covered by many here already, you get a pretty good idea just from the review summaries for this film that many found it really well done, moody, and a great concept, BUT... unfortunately I felt that it was ultimately watered down by the ending chosen by the film makers (or possibly yet ANOTHER stupid studio interference...)So, without entering any Spoiler territory, if you can excuse or overlook the completely OBVIOUS and somewhat ham-handed ending, and just sit back and enjoy the rest of the film, it actually is quite good and intriguing, and you probably will like it for the most part. And, Guy Pearce's acting is superb... But... I REALLY would have given my left nut (the smaller of the two) if they had just left the ending far more ambiguous and moody, just like the rest of this excellent film. I basically gave it about 2 stars less than I would have normally for a film of this overall quality; specifically because of the poor way in which I feel that they handled the ending...(I undress further, oh, excuse me... I mean, ADDRESS this further in a much more detailed SPOILER laden thread here in the discussion section for this film below...)

kai ringler never heard of Guy Pearce before I think he did a remarkable job given for someone I never heard of.. this movie has a very interesting premise. you go to a fortune teller to get you're future told to you, and then you get hit with the hammer over the head, you're only gonna be safe up until a certain time, then all bets are off. what would you do , and how would you go about trying to alter the course of what god has in store for you, this is what attracted me to the movie once I understood what was going on. I liked all of the plot twists and the scenery in the picture was also very nice. our main character tries to do several things to try an alter the almost certain outcome, and it's sorta like a psychological thriller in his journey to overcome what has been presented to him by the fortune teller. pretty darn good movie I will watch again soon.

Manfrombelmonty What can I say...not much to this one at all. Pretty dull and uninteresting.The actors performances are just OK. The only one that shines in any way is Simmons, but he only has, maybe 3 scenes. I understand that by keeping his screen time to a minimum he retains the mysterious psychic aura he has, but I can't help but feel his talent was wasted. No one else rose above mediocre.The story itself seems like it may be intriguing at the beginning, but then just doesn't go anywhere. There wasn't a single scene in the movie that impressed me or made me feel like I had just seen something special. The cinematography was fairly bland...I mean desert in a washed out sort of sepia...not very inspiring.The story of his childhood pal back outta prison seemed only partially thought out and didn't really add anything to the story, other than making an average 'Twilight Zone' script into a full length feature.Drab.
