My Thoughts:

Close your eyes.  Imagine yourself on a boat, you can hear the waves, you can feel the water hitting you and  in the face, and you can smell the ocean.  You have no idea where you are going but when you open your eyes all  you see is a island in the distance with a huge prison like building.  You find out that it is a mental intuition and you are there to investigation a murder. You don't know anything about what is going on but that you were brought in to help find out what happened.

I really liked this movie.  I am a sucker for suspenseful movies that keep you on edge of what is happening.  To me those are the best movies that have ever been made....this is one of those movies.  You really don't know much about the characters at first, but by the end of the movie you know their whole life story. This movie is purely epic.  If you haven't watched it you need to....like now...
