Terrific. It invites you to guess what's going to happen next, and allows you to be right so often that when the final wrinkle emerges, it's a true surprise. Very well constructed I thought, but restrained direction from Raimi, who for some reason I expected to be more.

.. kinetic and showy. Paxton might not have had the chops to really nail the lead character, but Thornton and Fonda are great. Also, it was nice to remember that there was once a day and age where Danny Elfman didn't suck.
