My wife and I just saw this at the Sitges Festival and were
unfortunately very disappointed in the movie. Elijah Wood is the focal
point of the film and frankly, the script nor his ability were able to
carry the movie to an even reasonable level of interest for us (let
alone tension, suspense or anything near the edge of the seat). A
critic stated this is Speed but with a piano. I say it is Speed at the
relative pace of a piano. This really comes down to the story at hand
and can a single scene movie keep someone interested to the point of
being called a thriller? I really do not believe so and especially feel
that way after seeing the film. The movie was just flat out boring.
Very disappointing start to the SFF.
