You can tell the plot of this movie in two phrases. It didn't convince me at all. I know Cronenberg wanted to make a commercial movie, but that doesn't mean it had to be so predictable. I could see the end and everything from the first minutes of the movie.. It was clear like a half-empty glass of water.. and mr. Cronenberg was usually treating us with a huge pint of a dark strong beer..:) Let's see what is good: - Eddie Harris is very good - The suspense and tension is very well built (Cronenberg is a good filmmaker, he couldn't totally mess out his movie) - The atmosphere is very nice at the end, in the brother's house
But where is the substance.. Where is the twist, where is the combustion. Compare this to Crash and to Dead Ringers.. to Spider and M. Butterfly. It doesn't go where those were going.
