I missed this one on the weekend (it's another 2 hour long movie) so I grabbed a ticket for today's earliest showing.. (12.30?! Yeah, I know..!)
OK, basic synopsis - Emily Blunt plays a FBI hostage negotiator and at the start of the movie she and her team stumble apon a grewsome find during a raid in Arizona.. After this she's offered a chance to join Josh Brown in an 'unknown' organisation whose task is to find the man responsible.. That's the basic jist..
Initially it reminded me of 'Se7en' but as it progressed it morphed into something more in line with 'The Shining' and it's sense of impending doom.. Emily Blunt was... well, Emily Blunt. She can do no wrong in my eyes.. Josh Brown and Benicio DelToro also put in very convincing performances.. The whole tone of the movie was right up my street. The music also helped to create a really foreboding atmosphere.. Overall an excellent movie.
An easy ****.
