It has taken me SO long, but I've finally caught up with this film and it was just my sort of thing. A solid 8/10 for me and one which stays with you afterwards. It could perhaps have been a little shorter and it did seem long, but not too long for. Still around, too, and has been number one at the Box Office, so evidently a hit with audiences, whereas newer, much-hyped releases (I won't name the film I first think of in this respect as I have made my point about it elsewhere) have disappeared or been scald back in only the second week of release.

I've finally managed to see this film tonight with OH.

We both really enjoyed this, it was intense and kept you guessing the whole way through. I'd agree with previous comments in that it was a bit long although it did keep your attention.
A solid 8/10 from me.

finally got round to seeing this in full, and have changed my opinion, its a remarkable slow burner interspersed with some horribly riveting scenes. 9/10.

Good film, but a bit too long I thought. 8/10
