This Makes No Sense

Why has this man been approved to stalk a woman to death?

How did his wife and child die?

My theory is he either killed them both or he seen them both killed through that gun periscope. And now, he's PTSDing.

not dark enough, not thrilling enough, not enough

Stephen 'The Eye' Wilson ((Ewan McGregor) is a loner investigator for the British Consulate in Washington. He is assigned to investigate an official's son and witnesses Joanna Eris (Ashley Judd) killing him. He suffers from hallucinations of his daughter whom he lost in a divorce. His hallucination convinces him to protect the wayward serial killer and start following her.

The movie needs better style from director Stephan Elliott. It's not dark enough to be compelling or paranoid. It's definitely not tense enough to be thrilling. The movie sets up the premise but does few exciting things with it. It has a Hitchcock feel but lacks his expertise. Even the surreal element of his hallucinations need some help. They're not unreal or fanciful enough. This could be something worthwhile if it isn't so unimaginative.

Flawed But Visually-Audibly Entertaining

Here's an extremely stylish, different film panned by almost all the professional critics which means here's another example of why they should be ignored. You are better off reading the reviews of people here,

Being one who appreciates stylish film-making, I thoroughly enjoyed the images and the sound on this movie. I found it absolutely fascinating. Being a male, it doesn't hurt that Ashley Judd stars in it, either.

To be fair, I can see where the story would turn off a number of people.The co- lead, Ewan McGregory's character, is odd and not very credible. k.d. lang's character is unlikable, there is some stupid numerology as part of the story and the ending is unsatisfying .

Yet, despite the above, the story is very involving and the visuals and sound (5.1 surround) are just so good that they outweigh the negatives. The movie flat-out entertains, which is the name of the game.
