Excellent, a Must See

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

This could have been a good little thriller.Don't blame the writers for the awful execution of what could have been a great movie.The director re-wrote it. Badly.A music video director of modest talent was given a great opportunity here.When will Hollywood stop giving guys who've never shot a word of dialogue or told a story a chance to make films.Usually all flash with no story telling skills. This film doesn't even have any of the flash you might expect from a music video.Very talented actors were wasted on this one.

One of the worst movies I've seen in a long time, particularly since the idea of it is quite a good one, with a lot of potential. Without the interesting basic premise it surely would have rated a 1.So what's wrong with it?1. 45 minutes of boring, badly acted, unconvincingly plotted, standard 'art-theft' action before the main plot line is actually introduced.2. Shockingly weak dialogue - every bad thing 'sucks'. And sure there are lots of movies where every other word is fk or a variant thereof (which is fine if authentic) but here, almost exclusively in the latter half, the fk word is so clumsily and obviously inserted into almost every line that it becomes very tedious3. Really poor characterisation. Are the characters smart or stupid? You can't really tell because the authors never decided - most of the time their actions and motivations don't ring true at all.4. One glaringly obviously plot development - (no spoiler) but if you end up watching this movie to humour someone you love (the only excuse) then you'll know what's going to happen as soon as...5. Do characters still have to smoke cigarettes? The year is 2002, not 1952 thanks very much.Enough said. This movie is crap - pure and simple. One day someone may use the idea to make a decent movie - but it won't be anyone who worked on this movie.

The idea of this movie is brilliant and it could have led the script towards a totally different perspective of the action. Although some scenes are obviously forced, and higly unlikely, the movie captures you till the end. The dilema, the game to decide the killer and the victim, could have provided much more psychological moments than it actually does, and that would have made the movie better. Unfortunately, after the middle of the film, it becomes a simple action movie with simple and way too predictable events. All in all, a good idea, a nice watch, but it's a pity - it could have been great. Vote: 5 out of 10.

I gave this one a shot, lured by the text on the cover that this flick would be like mix of the two very good above mentioned films. Not at all in my opinion. I think the plot is very cheaply worked out. The '4 dogs' could have found their way out of the situation more easily than making up this stupid idea about life insurances. I found the acting very poorly too, except maybe for Tim Curry.All in all not worth the time or money.
