I don't know if this film will live up to the re-watchability factor for everyone, but I guarantee the first time you view it, you will be holding onto the edge of your seat.
Jody Foster and daughter have just movied into this huge NY ( house, mansion, duplex, ???) and it contains a Panic Room, completely outfitted with closed circuit surveilence and other necessities to hide from burgulars. Well first night and there are burgulars and all hell breaks loose. Foster and daughter make it to the safety room, but there are all kinds of problems that I won't reveal.
This is Superbit and the disc has little in extras. This is a dark and shadowy film, so many have questioned the value of offering it in Superbit. But I saw a lot of detail in many of those darker scenes that may not have been visible in a standard disc . There are a few daylight scenes and these are magnificent. The cheap packaging is also creating a bit of controversy, but it didn't bother me too much.
Some good acting here, especially by Country singer Dwight Yoakam as a real baddie. Also stars Forrest Whitaker and Jared Leto as the other two burgulars. I don't recall the name of the young girl who plays Foster's daughter, but she is one heckuva good little actress.
I'd give it 3 and a half stars.
