Radha Mitchell stars in this thriller movie. She owns a small diner. The story starts with a drifter appearing on her diner. Then a cat and mouse chase starts with the drifter claiming that 3 surfers are chasing him. But when the surfers show up the heroine has a difficult time figuring out whom to believe.
It is a heroine centric story. There is not much of a suspense but the plot is clever. There are a couple of good 'U' turns. But the story breaks down in some places. Especially in explaining why the cat and mouse game is taking place. But that being said it does keep the viewer fully interested in the movie. There is not a dull moment.
There is not much a drama or dealing with unncessary emotions. The chase starts in the first 10 minutes of the movie and director does a good job in maintaining the pace till the end of the movie.
All in all I would rate this as an average movie. I would give it 3 stars out of a possible 5.
(My rating system: 1 star - hated the movie. 2 stars - The movie is boring but I did manage to finish the movie. 3 stars - The movie is watchable at least once. 4 stars - very good movie. 5 stars - I find it a classic!!)
