I thought the movie was pretty good in terms of building of the character. Anthony Hopkins did an amazing job. Too bad that Maria Cucinotta wasn't used more. She is drop dead gorgeous and a model and should have played a bigger role, perhaps as a temptress to Michael. She had basically a cameo role, that's it. Anthony even hinted that Michael could stay in the kitchen with her and take the consequences, but nothing else was eluded by it....poor directing. Iwould have also liked more special effects and a scarier, creepier movie. Like stuff from Exorcist and The Circle, The Shutter,etc. If I was the Director, I would have done it completely different, now that I think about it. I would scare the hell out of people. :)
