Intriguing as hell.

I don't know if I would have kept up with all the seemingly absurd twists if David Hyde Pierce wasn't the psycho. Excellent job.

I couldn't stop guessing at what was going on, even until the last minutes.

This is a VERY confusing movie but I was completely immersed.

I was waiting for it to end poorly with all the loose ends but it actually ended quite well. Maybe that's just because I need to watch it few more times to iron out what I didn't understand or figure out the plot holes.

Either way for a first watch and a movie that is way under the radar. Highly recommended.

For entertainment, this is perfect. :P

I didn't think this movie was confusing...at all, but it was well-written, and the twists were GREAT! The only twist I was expecting was the reason why he stole the money (or why he thought he was stealing the money.) The rest was brilliant.

Maybe smartly misleading is a better term than confusing, but it kept me guessing... that was my point, and that's why I enjoyed it.

I still think there are some gray areas that could be explored.

One of the most intriguing films I've seen in quite a while. It held my attention throughout.
