It's always refreshing when David Cronenberg isn't waving a vaguely sexual tentacle in your face. Unfortunately, I expected more from this film in terms of mysteries and twists. The plot, at first, moves at a snails pace, and it's episodic nature betrays it's origins as a graphic novel. However, the performances are fantastic and the last scene, mesmerising. All in all, a menacing film that may or may not have a happy ending.

As a big Cronenberg fan, I'm still trying to figure out why people loved this movie so much. I found it unconvincing and can't seem to find any of the brilliant subtext or insight that people rave about.
Oh well.
