When my sister watched this film few months ago, she encouraged me to watch it especially since I travel a lot. Then one of my good friends was able to watch it too and told me I should definitely watch it as I travel extensively and maybe this movie will scare the s&*^ out of me [...]

SPOILER ALERT! Following might contain spoilers. If you haven’t watched this movie yet, you might not want to read this review.

This is a good example of a chop up film that is nicely executed and put back together without making your head hurt.

I was quite determined to watch two movies last Sunday. There’s been a drought of good movies recently and I was beginning to feel bored and wanted to prove otherwise that there must be some nice ones showing this week. So I chose to feed my senses with We Own the Night and Lust Caution. [...]
