Can I say first, wow the woman who plays the maid is very beautiful. I read somewhere they were criticized for "demonizing the rich"? No, this shows quite frankly, exactly what rich white people are like, so not sure where that came from. However, they make the maid look like a complete moron, so that kind of made me angry. There is so much with that, I can't begin, but basically, they make her out to look like a complete dumb****. So, like what, immigrants are too stupid to out think the white rich people? There is countless of things that she did in this movie, that would never have been done by a real woman, any woman, other than a ditsy rich white girl, would do. So, I guess that's where they got their inspiration for her character from. With that said, like I said, this movie had potential, but it stops about 10 to 15 minutes in. So, I guess if there is nothing else you can watch, then do so, but this is not a movie you'd seek out to watch, no. Nice try though.
..the film was atmospheric and to some degree well acted and directed.
The early half of the film was pretty good leaving me with a plot I was about settle into and in the main enjoy. I enjoyed the superiority of the rich against the poor. The lady of the house informing the maid 'my son has been sick in the garage, clean it up'
I particularly enjoyed the early stand off against maid and wealthy owner .....there were some early clues of the rich kid attitude.
Matters did take a predictable course but could I predict the conclusion, not really because I could not make out the action as most of the plot, unfortunately, was shot ...no pun intended... in darkness and I believe this really did spoil what could have been a thriller of worth.

Waste of time. Amateur story/screen writing/music/directing. Thriller? You gotta be kidding! All predictable cliché. Not worth the release in theaters or DVD rental. I was hoping for a certain twist to the plot. But the story just keeps dragging until at the very end you are left wondering what the production team was thinking when they made this movie. This is more of a story in the newspaper, sad but not worth turning into a feature film. I'm giving it 2 stars for the effort. The main characters are all badly acted. Any college student studying filming would have just as easily directed and written this script. You're better off watching reruns of past hits.
Still scratching my head. Pointless? Nothing happens? I was waiting. It could have been great. Never got there.
Ok it's not gonna win an academy award. But it was well crafted and suspenseful. It's not a big budget but it kept me interested the entire time. I see way worse movies with higher scores that this. It's a good thriller to sit down and watch with the wife or husband. We enjoyed it I'm giving it an 8 because if the low score but it's a solid 7.
