The "mystery" in this movie is why good actors like Ricci, Cusack and Fletcher chose to be in a straight to video stinker. It's as if Lifetime decided to have Danielle Steele adapt a Stephen King story.

This had to be a tax write off.
Gawd!!
Who cares about dialogue! Not that it mattered in this film since it was so inanely stupid. Fortunately, there were no subtitles; poor audio level control; poor enunciation by actors(?). Other signs of bad: Scenes of people in car driving on road - cheap filler; background music/sound effects annoyingly blatant & used as crutch for boring nothing going on scenes; scenes of apartment building in which clouds in background do not move. Script: Nothing creative in this redux of mind control through subliminal tele messages, and droning sound. (Here are some of the subliminal's - failure, transgressor, flawed, worthless, weak, broken, obey, eliminate, assassinate, kill, all interspersed w/death images). Stupid predictable ending.
Bad, just really bad
I can remember a time, when the ratings on IMDB were an indicator for the quality of a movie. Those days seem to be gone.
Nowadays, I have to read through all reviews and check the distribution of ratings to get an idea, because the rating alone seems to be fake most of the time. Sadly I was blinded by this one, maybe because I really like John Cusack.
Unfortunately, Mr. Cusack seems to have devoted himself to the absolute worst possible roles in the absolute worst possible movies lately. I can't remember the last time I liked a movie with him in it.
This one is a new low, I don't know where to begin. The non-story, the amateurish production, the laughable CGI, the missing direction, the incredibly bad acting all around, the wig??
Really, pick any one of those and it will be enough to skip this pile of garbage.
Dear Mr. Cusack, remember Martian Child, Grace is Gone, High Fidelity or even Identity? What happened?
