damn this movie was clever...so very bloody freakin clever...i remembered thinking that, the very moment i figured out what was going on...ive never seen any movie like this, its thoroughly unique, and damn...so CLEVER!! i have not been as totally impressed with a movie recently, as i was with this. as his problems escalated (cross, double cross, triple cross, .... and then the ending...bloody heck)... the acting was amazing, ive never EVER seen lucy liu act that amazingly, i have a whole new view of, and respect for, her now as an actress (not just a pretty face...) the only problem i had with it, was the ending. it was great, but i think i was expecting something HUGE... possibly something that wouldn't be revealed, and maybe left up to the viewer (like pulp fiction, or ronin...).. or maybe the plans for the cube (given who directed this...), which would have been really creepy and tie the two very surreal films together. man, wasn't the vault a total mind tripp?

this movie is an easy 8.5 out of 10, totally recommended for anyone who wants a thoroughly engaging film.
