A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
