So what happened, who killed who?!


I'm a little confused. Who killed who and why?

I think Catherine killed. She made everything so clever and intricate that there were no direct evidence against her. I believe she killed as her rich imagination and mental disorder made her do it. By the way she made great money with her books but money wasn't important to her and I think she enjoyed such life though wasn't happy.

Glass killed everyone!

Isn't it who killed "whom"? Anyway, I was confused myself. It couldn't have been the guy all along because when he finds the book and reads it and goes to save the psychiatrist lady he's obviously not faking it. Plus all those conversations betw. him and sharon stone would be stupid if he was the killer or they were both in on it. I hate movies where they put a whole bunch of crazy twists just to create suspense for the viewer when it doesn't make any sense with the plot. And who else thought it was stupid that the guy kept changing sides every 5 minutes. First he thinks it's the chick, then she tells him it's the cop so he believes her. Then the cop says it's the chick so he believes him, but (what a surprise) she tells him it's the cop again and so on. In the ending she tells him it's the cop so he shoots him but the cop with his dying breath tells him it was her so he's about to shoot her too but gets jumped by some cops before he gets a chance to. And in the ending the chick tells him it was him all along and he probably believed her then too. So idiotic...

I think they purposely left it ambiguous and up to the viewer, which always sort of annoys me, though it's intersting to debate....

I just listened to the director's commentary last night, and yes, he purposely left the ending ambiguous, so viewers could decide for themselves what's real and what's not, and who the killer is....

I think they're both killers

so what is the final decision

I just saw this waste of celluloid last night. Catherine killed them all, played a serious mind game on the psychiatrist so he kills his cop buddy. It was Barzini,,,I mean Tremmel all along.



Maybe poker's just not your game Ike. I know, let's have a spelling contest!
