Although I had seen this movie once before, I couldn't remember much of it, apart from the end.
I didn't like it very much, mainly because of the unsympathetic protagonists, some far-fetched plot points and some vocal popular music. To me the weakest part probably is the script. I feel a bit uneasy about this, because I usually don't want to judge a movie solely on matters directly concerning the script, like dialogue or plot. A movie is much more than just the story. However I was constantly irritated by the things that just 'happened'. The camerawork, the cinematography, and the editing are all fine. The music during the suspense and action moments was fairly impressive. I really hated the Fuller character, but Steve Zahn did a good job. The other main character roles were played decent enough to mediocre.
The movie bares resemblance to:
Duel (A business man is terrorized by an unseen psycho driver of a tanker truck)
I saw what you did (prank telephone calls)
