Was expecting nothing from this film. Then I realized I was very very wrong. This is a film to watch definitely blew my mind
It’s exciting and paranoid; the nature of the movie as a symbol for our post modern reality is rightly controversial. Some people may scoff.
Thrilling with a mega twist. An outstanding film.
Where does one acquire this job? This movie is a little ridiculous, but I loved it.
My dark horse pick for Fincher’s filmography. A fine piece of thrilling filmmaking by one of the best in the business.
Expertly crafted Fincher film. Deborah Kara singer has never been better
Great work from Gay Actor Michael Douglas
Twisty and mind-bending thriller. Douglas is great as his life turns upside down. Prepare for surprises at every turn. Keeps you guessing!
Head trip that ratchets up for the whole duration, never lets up and delivers on a dark premise with aplomb.
A fun mystery that is enjoyable to watch unravel. It’s a little ridiculous the more you think about it though.
