riveting. stomach in knots.

this movie was as slow-moving as it was riveting. my stomach is still a little tied up.

the plot was, well, not that thick.

and i'm no judge of good acting or bad acting - normally.

but....

i totally get why Natalie Portman is taking home all of those heavy trophies for this movie. she totally sucks you into her crazy-making character. it's not the kind of scary where i'm afraid to sleep in my house alone tonight, but she was incredible in this role.

a must see either while on the big screen or when it comes up for renting.
