Review:
I loved this movie the first time I saw it! A very simple movie with a great story. The three main actors do a wonderful job - if only all movies could be so simple and yet fulfilling.
And why did Nicole Kidman ruin her face with surgery?? I wish she looked like she did from this movie.
Sam Neil - a great actor. Even though I have nightmares of him trying to kill me.. :/ :D
I definately recommend this movie! Not many movies out there that show that a movie doesn't have to be complex and expensive to be awesome!

Billy Zane was in it to you know... hello??? Nothing about him? HUH?!?!?!?
/dissapointed Fredde
*sigh* :D
Billy Zane did do a great job in the movie! Makes a person wonder why he hasn't been in many more movies since then, because he definately has the acting ability. Maybe just poor casting decisions on his part?? But he is a very believable character in this movie and he does a great job in the part.
