Not much running, actually.
Fulsome praise has been lavished upon this thriller, and watching it I wonder why. Maybe it's something called "backlash", or perhaps my expectations were too high. Either way, I came away underwhelmed. Not really any edge of the seat moments (although I do admit that one sequence was particularly tense). Just a whodunnit that winds up only to loosen up right after, with a storyline that occasionally lost me. I'm the guy who likes mystery from the beginning right to the end with oh, lots of chases and twists and turns. This film has them, but in the most minimal amounts, with the rest being devoted to "characters" and lengthy expositions. But that's just me.

well, i was pretty underwhelmed myself too but i thought it was a decent thriller though. the Hitchcockian style was way over-celebrated and the music was quite appaling. nevertheless i enjoyed most parts of the film.
