    I watched this over three different segments on the treadmill......take that for what it's worth.

    This thing got 1 star for ACTUALLY filming in Boston despite the low budget. I appreciate that more than anything.

    Then a bonus 1/2 star for the strong work of the art director.

    I usually like movies that take place in only one location but this wasn't it...too ambitious for it's budget, paired with 10 cent writing.

    I know I always complain about older…

    This ran a little too long for me either wise this would definitely be a higher rating.

    They walked around looking for Vanya for what felt like 35 minutes and it was so repetitive. It really took me out of it.

    Other than the movie is relentless (in a good way) with one of the longest most effective scenes in recent memory (when Toros and company first come to their house).

    I laughed a lot and really wasn't sure where…

    I don't really know how to rate/review this as a first time viewing EIGTHY TWO years after it was made.

    I appreciate the skill involved for the year it was made, but for something so hyped up I was kind of underwhelmed when 75% of the movie takes place in Rick's nightclub....kind of takes away from the expectations that were set from the "all time best" reviews I've been told all my life.

    Also am I the only one also…

    This started as a 2.5....and as time went on, it slowly worked it's way up to a 3.25/5

    Sydney seemed outmatched by her peers at the start, but once she settled in this thing really took off.

    Lots of cheap jump scares initially (to the point where I had to lower the volume because I was annoyed) but as the story unfolded it veered away from that and morphed into pure adrenaline.

    It's beautifuly shot but even the Blu Ray…
