John Anderson Variety 04/13/2010
Works as a well-guided female empowerment missile -- few women on film have managed to terrorize two possibly psychotic males while handcuffed to a bed and bleeding to death. Go to Full Review Brad Miska Bloody Disgusting 04/13/2010
3.5/5
The blend of sound design, score and editing is what made the film as suspenseful as it was. Holding the frame for the perfect amount of time is a science and doing it correctly can make or break the final cut of a film. Go to Full Review Johnny Butane Dread Central 04/13/2010
3.5/5
Yes, you'll see some of the many twists coming a mile or so away, but there are others that aim to blindside, and do a damn fine job of it. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

02/28/2021 Sympathy 22.2.21 6.3/0. The flat performances and continuity aside, it was watchable. Maybe it should be called 'slow psi- empathy'. Reminds me of a different version of identity. D.B. See more 11/30/2016 Does a surprisingly decent job with the little amount of resources at its disposal. Twists galore in this little one location thriller. See more 03/21/2012 A man abducts a young woman and holds her hostage in a hotel room after a botched robbery, then things get worse when an escape convict shows up in the same hotel room. It's an interesting movie with plenty of secrets and and hidden motives. The acting is decent but not great, the storyline is pretty solid, and it has a nice unexpected twist ending. Overall is has a student film style to it with it's b grade cinematography.

It has laughably bad, over acting and it bored me right away so I turned it of after 10 minutes. Its DOA! Avoid!!! See more 07/08/2010 What could have been an interesting low budget movie is wrecked by terrible overacting by it's 3 member cast and pedestrian direction by it's helmer. See more Read all reviews
