"As gripping as it is grueling, with performances that swing for the fences and a knotty central mystery."--Boston Globe"One of the most intense thrillers in recent years. Best performance of Hugh Jackman's career."--Richard Roeper"A film that seems headed toward one conclusion, then veers toward another over two and a half of the fastest-moving hours I've seen in a recent movie."--New York Post"The plot raises complicated moral questions about how far an anguished person will go for the love of a child. At the same time, it sets up an intricate, horrifying mystery with breathtaking skill."--USA Today
