Factual errors: When Lucinda and Charles are looking for a hotel the first hotel that Charles asks about is The Renaissance Hotel which is on Wacker Drive. Later when Lucinda asks the taxi driver to stop the cab the cab is again in front of The Renaissance going the opposite direction on Wacker. However, when the cab comes to a stop and they get out of the cab they are not standing out on Wacker Drive, nor in front of the Renaissance. more

I was avoiding the film because of the lower ratings it had received but after several recommendations, I went and saw it and was surprisingly pleased with the whole film from start to finish. In my opinion, this could be very well one of the best thrillers of the year. The trailer for it really doesn't do it justice for what the movie really is; a dark, suspenseful, edge of your seat thriller. Jennifer Aniston does a great job breaking out of her Friends character that everyone associates her with and that so few sitcom actors have been able to do. Don't wait for this one to come out on DVD. You definitely want to catch this one in the theater.
