    Great film! One of my favorite David Fincher films! Clever! In every way! The photography too is beautiful! One of Michael Douglas’ best films!

    Suspense, action, drama. All rolled into one. Sean penn had enough of a role in the movie to add dynamics. Highly recommended.
  • Epic.

    Its 2019. Movies don’t touch you like this. They don’t ring the same timbre.
  • Thrilling and then some

    when you have "everything in your life" there is more and this movie is so much more - wish life could be as Sean says "a profound life experience."
  • Good movie.

    It reminds me of a Stephen king short story I read once called Quitters Inc. from his short story collection Night Shift.

    This is not a movie that requires an in-depth analysis or praise of the writing, acting, direction, or cinematography. The excellence of these is a given. The story is unique, compelling, scary, and it drives you to the same point of desparation as the protagonist, plus it has a great pay-off. I own this on DVD and later as an iTunes purchase. I've watched it roughly once every 20 months since it came out and it's just as good every time. If you are into thrillers, this one should definitely be in your library.

    This movie is in class all its own. I rarely feel the desire to review or rate a movie but in this case I felt it was more than necessary. This movie had an extraordinary impact on me and the way that I thought about everything. I highly recommend watching this movie and when it's over ask your self if you truly understand what reality is and whether or not it is absolutely and cannot be manipulated. Perhaps I read too deeply into the concept of this movie but he deeply affected my perception of reality. Al is in Wonderland

    This movie might as well be the best movie I have seen in a long time. A classic movie with many twists and turns that you have to pay attention to which makes this a very interactive movie. If I were you, I wouldn't even think about renting this movie... I would buy the crap out of it.
