Renny Harlin delivers what his producers ask for. Not as much fun as Deep Blue Sea, but enjoyable in a guilty-pleasure kind of way.

Still, it would have been nice had one of the super-smart FBI profilers-in-training characters mentioned that they had at least heard of "Ten Little Indians".

Cheap fun with a couple innovations, and mostly well done, if a bit over-the-top performances by the gang.

Really bad CGI, in places where they could have easily used a physical effect and had it look totally real and cool. Not sure why they did that. Most inexplicable CGI shots since Tommy Lee Jones threw a "rock" at Cedric the Entertainer in "Man of the House".

Hahaha, I can't believe you went and saw this. God damn.

Actually thought I shouldn't criticize you. I kind of wanted to after seeing the trailer in front of... Hitchhiker's Guide?... some damn movie. Maybe I should just rent Ten Little Indians instead, though, yeah.

edit: it was in front of Sin City, I remember. Hitchhiker's Guide too, though, maybe.

I give it a solid B. Not good, certainly. But always fun.
