8/10
Quite good

To be honest, I was particularly happy with the movie. This might be partially due to the fact that the last one I watched was Musallat 2 - a wanna be scary Turkish movie.

The plot was well-written, although with some gaps in certain places that makes the viewer think if it is because of time constraints, and I really liked the message and the place- New Orleans - chosen for the movie. I also liked how, at the end, it went back to the beginning - and the reverse, thus creating questions in our minds at the beginning.

Sometimes it seemed to me hard to believe how serene Nicolas Cage's character could be- under certain circumstances - it seemed that some emotions were lacking, but it might be a choice of acting of course. I really liked Laura's perseverance, her willingness to move on and her trust in her husband. They did a really good psychological job on the character.

Overall, it was a good one. I really liked what I saw. Actions were in place, and were used well to create suspense.
