This film comes close to working. Patrick Stewart tries, but the story wears out it's welcome before it ends. Starts out great and the fizzles. It's generally predictable.

Patrick Stewart is one of my favorite actors. He always does a fabulous job and this film is no exception. I love how the film keeps you guessing...I didn't figure it all out until almost the last 20-30 minutes. The only thing this movie lacks is a little more action.
