Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe movie that Jillian and Spencer watch together is Penny Serenade (1941), which also centers on a dramatic child rearing.
- GoofsAll NASA shuttle astronauts live and work in the vicinity of the Johnson Space Center in Houston, many of them in Clear Lake, a Houston suburb. Yet in the film, Jillian teaches school in Florida, where she and Armacost clearly live. Astronauts only go to Florida for launches.
- Alternate versionsThe Indian Censor Board made cuts for an 'A' (adults) certificate by deleting the word "motherfucker", muting the word "fucking" from the line "Jesus fucking Christ" and reducing 50% of the love-making scene especially reducing to a flash the thrusting movements on the bed (when shown continuously) (Length Retained: 37.00 ft).

Featured review
Could have been a Classic Thriller
I watched this movie yesterday, and I was hooked to its haunting story till the end. First I have to say the performances were excellent, Johnny Depp still surprises me with his variety of roles, I can't imagine he could have done the hilarious role of Captain Jack Sparrow after this scary role.
His eyes were acting more than any part of his body and you could feel the slight change in his character through the stillness of his eyes. Charlize Theron gave a better performance than her Devil's advocate role although they had the same criteria, the disturbed wife. But her genuine agonizing performance distinguished her in this movie.
I noticed the music was a major pillar in this movie, it was like another main character in this movie, the editing was great also especially the scene in the subway. The story was an original also, it had good turn ups and twists.
The movie had all the right elements in general and it certainly doesn't deserve a 4.7 on the imdb. I think the voters were greatly disappointed after seeing all those good elements destroyed by the cheesy and typical ending that only producers could have had a part with, in order to make another sequel.
The ending by all means was bad, it destroyed the originality of the story and the tension build up. I give it an 7.5 for all the good elements, it would reached a 9.0 if the ending was different.
