I loved this movie! I just wonder why I didn’t watch it before. It is very well done, has a great plot and amazing actors. The ending is unexpected and I didn’t believe main character’s wife was faithful to him buy the end of the film. OOOPs! Sorry for the spoiler! I didn’t think it was so good when I started watching it. The film turned out more than I wanted form it and definitely above my daring expectations. I totally recommend it, even to those, who are not fond of Nicolas Cage’s acting.

Putting everything else aside…, there were so many F-words in this movie, I finally shut it off… I felt so guilty for watching the half hour that I did, that I had to wash my ears out with soap! I would estimate that every 5th word is an F-word.

For me it is very weird that this movie is not very well known, as i think it is not right, according to my point of view, it is way much better than all the crap i see lately on the television. To start with i can say that the name of the movie is already intriguing. I was expecting to discover some secrets and the consequences of those secrets. And it was exactly what i got in this movie. The subject line is filled with action and change of events. At the beginning everything was simple, the atmosphere of the chic house with the family, where the father is a successful businessman who works with diamonds. His beautiful wife was dealing with the design of their house. So they were set in front of the choice whether to give everything they own to robbers, or to die. I loved the movie as it held me in captivity, from the beginning till the end. I wish there were more movies as this one, my life would have been much better.

The movie is actually pretty good, and brand new, though i have saw it under a different name for some reason, i browsed it as “Anatomy of fear”, and later by accident found out that it has a different name. The essence of the movie is that there is a “usual” rich family- father, mother and a not very naughty teenager daughter. To their house break robbers who try to rob them, that was a banal plot, but some of the psychological moments were spinned on a very big speed in such a beautiful way that the movie gets a new drive dynamics like in a action movies. For me it was very interesting to watch how little by little were revealed a variety of skeletons in the closet. Most of all about this movie i loved the surprises which it was bringing to me, this way i cannot relate it to usual action movies. And of course i cannot pass through without saying how much i loved the main actors, both Nicholas Cage and Nicole Kidman were just awesome.

I liked the movie, though I don’t really like Nicholas Cage, but I can surely say that I adore Nicole Kidman, as she indeed is a great woman. And as an actress she showed herself completely amazing. The subject line, that in a the rich house of the diamond king where live three people, come the robbers who are demanding money, of course it is not a new plot. But in this movie everything is much more complex, because the wife of the main hero is linked with one of the robbers by a very warm feelings, and no matter the big variety of scenes which are alike, I cannot say that it is a boring movie, because there are a lot of events in it, as well as the performance of actors is really good. I like action movies, and even though I am a girl I am not ashamed to say that, because American action movies are to die for. This criminal action is a very qualitative movie, with a light touch of family drama, and this kind of mixture is already something unique and interesting, as far as for now it is the only thing that matters to me.

The plot is overly complex and the tension frequently abated by the introduction of unnecessary flashbacks.
