Trivia:
Originally the script called for the character of Abby to be diabetic, but Panic Room (2002) also featured a little girl with juvenile diabetes and as it was to be released first, so Abby was changed to an asthmatic instead. moreGoofs:
Revealing mistakes: Towards the end of the movie when Joe and Karen steal the car from the garage, as they drive out of the garage you can see a group of people through the rear window of the car. They appear to just be by-standers standing around watching the movie being filmed. moreFAQ

Average. The movie is full of clichés and most of all, the ending is totally unrealistic and overblown.
Otherwise, if they had stuck to the basic plot, this could have been a nice little thriller, especially because on average, the acting was pretty good (especially Charlize Theron and Kevin Bacon). As usual, for some reason Hollywood producers (or Directors) feel it necessary to cram movies with tons of unnecessary subplots most of the time, as well as add minutes of ridiculous 'action scenes' which usually make the films look unreal and unbelievable to the audience. Do they really think the average moviegoer is a moron? In this case, the ending definitely ruined what could have been a good thriller...
