Great story, Poor directing


I didn't have high hope when watching this movie. To me, any movie that has Eric Roberts and Greene playing a major role, would label the film "low budget" (sorry for being subjective). And then there're the meaningless city / shadow shots that got inserted multiple times during the movie, as if to fill up time space.

Putting aside the technical stuff, the story was rather good, cleverly play with reincarnation and subconscious memories. Given to Guillermo del Toro and it could have been a classic.


Classics are names that everyone heard, yet most have never seen!!
