Jessica Alba is Paranoid May 22, 2009

If you are buying this for Jessica Alba nudity, don't. The story line is good and the acting is above average. However, this movie is nothing special.
 HUGE potential wasted... September 6, 2008

This movie could actually have been really good if someone had bothered to edit it. The acting is great, especially by Iain Glen, who plays the villain with a sort of perverse glee. Jeanne Tripplehorn is awesome as a pathetic accomplice. It was cool to see Ewen Bremner playing a voyeuristic dweeb, and Jessica Alba, gorgeous as ever, gives one of her better performances. Portions of the script were quite brilliant and funny. The photography was often beautiful and creepy. But the scenes go on interminably, and there is a lot of dead space in the dialogue, like they just let the camera run. There's not enough actual action to sustain the viewer's attention, and sadly, not enough eroticism, either. It's unbelievable that a movie featuring Jessica Alba handcuffed to a bed for two days could be so boring and unsexy. I actually contemplated suicide while watching this movie. If they shaved off a half hour and added some actual sex and violence, it would have been awesome.
I'm a real person, with feelings... and stuff... January 22, 2006

I admit, I'm a bit of a sucker for cheesy erotic thrillers. Well, this one is neither thrilling, nor particularly erotic. But it's definitely cheesy. I realize that Jessica Alba's character is not supposed to be multi-dimensional, but if she claims to be "a real person with feelings" she should do more than pout and roll her eyes.
The "bad guy" looks like a British clone of Jack Nicholson. The features, the facial expression, the tone - it all echoes of "The Shining". Even the notion of the abandoned hotel is used.
 Not Bad... November 6, 2005

This movie is really a 3 1/2 star movie but I rounded up. Jessica Alba plays a super model who is two-timing her boyfriend with another man. The other man brings her to a old hotel run by a friend of his and soon she is left alone with just the family but is not able to remember if she is being hurt by them or what they might have done to her. Mishca Barton (of O.C. fame) plays a deaf girl who sorta kinda saves the day. Also the bad guy in the movie is someone you just plain hate. He is creepy and disturbing...the movie wasn't bad...but it wasn't scary and the plot didn't come together at the end. They ending was a little disturbing but the movies puzzle as a whole never fit together right. Jessica Alba makes this movie 100%. She doesn't really do a lot in it except say things like, "why are you doing this?!" or, "Let me go!" but she is fun to watch. This movie is not a great movie but it entertains. I would say you should get it if you are a die-hard Jessica Alba fan but stay away if you don't care for scary movies. It isn't scary, but it might scare younger kids. The movie is not rated but if it were it would be a R movie. They use the F word many times and show many woman's breasts throughout the whole movie. The violence level is nonexistent. This is a good movie if you are a JA fan but I wouldn't recommend it otherwise.
