Surprisingly good

I didn't have high expectations of this movie having seen the cheesy trailers for the past few weeks. Boy was I surprised. If you're a fan of classic thrillers, think of this as Soderbergh's homage to Hitchcock. I don't mean slasher/Psycho Hitchcock, but the really smart movies like Strangers on a Train, The Lady Vanishes, The 39 Steps, etc. I was completely engaged from start to finish and a bit of the edge of my seat. Go see this and forget what the trailers led you to believe it was about.
