by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Yes! This is a GO SEE IT!!!! Writer/Director Leigh Whannell has presented us with a fine thriller starting scene 1 – You become immediately invested in the escape without having seen who, why, where an escape is even needed.

The story travels back and forth from present to past in a languorous mode, this is a film, not a movie.
