Story When recently divorced surgeon Juliet (Swank) finds her dream apartment. The apartment is owned by Max (Morgan) and his sick grandfather August (Lee). As the first few days go by sparks seem to start between Juliet and Max, but just as things look like they are going well after a romantic dinner things take a turn. We flash back only to find out that Max is secretly obsessed with Juliet arranging chances meetings and for her to move into the apartment.
How far will this obsession go? Will Juliet figure it before its too late?
Verdict This psychological thriller has an edge of tension from the moment you learn about Max. The build up in suspense shines through over the horror. The final chase through the dry walls is really edge of your seat stuff, thinking Juliet has escaped just as Max finds a way to stop her. If you like a good psychological thriller this is one to give a watch should be enjoyed.
