you can definitely see Charlize and Stuart's chemistry with this movie. Really good movie

Charlize Theron delivers an emotionally engaging performance and Dakota again proves herself as one of the most talented child actresses to conquer the silver screen. Kevin Bacon proves to be an absolutely evil villain and though there is no earthshattering twist, the intensity of this movie will keep you on the edge of your seat from the opening sequence to the final scene. So often in movies, the characters sustain many injuries but then run around as if they are completely healthy - I like that in this movie, after a character is stabbed in the leg he runs accordingly. This one is definitely worth watching.

nothing great about this movie, anyone could have come up with the boring script and plot

Kevin Bacon as a bad guy - check. Charlize Theron as a beautiful strong woman - check. Courtney Love who acts so bad she almost ruins the movie - check!
