I didn't read the book prior to seeing this movie. The story is good and the actors are great. Somehow, I didn't care much for this movie and found it boring. The events occuring were predictable, and I felt as if this movie tasted like wine and water ; diluted. I'm not a big fan of movies made in Québec, nor am I of american blockbusters. Would have it been filmed in the USA, this movie might have had a bigger punch to it. I get that psychological thrillers are often slow paced, and I have no problem with that, but this one was plain boring. Sadly, this movie will probably get an average of a 9 or 10 and I wouldn't be surprised. The book may be great, but the movie isn't. You should check Stephen King's Misery ; it's much better.
