Film Threat Rated: 4/5 Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Film Threat Rated: 4/5 Mar 16, 2004 Full Review Brian Mckay eFilmCritic.com The film's premise doesn't really pay off in a satisfying manner, but for most of the ride it is a decent psychological thriller in the vein of Memento.

Audience Member Quite interesting! kept me awake for a long long time. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member i have been trying to catch this movie for a while. its very up-beat in the beginning and a bit confusing i must say. bt after a while things fall into place - then i found myself waiting for the point in it all ( a bit drawn out) the building up is worth it. bt the ending a bit soppy - all in all, its ok Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member If you like movies like "Sliding Doors" but break into hives when Gwyneth Paltrow is on screen, then "Undermind" is worth a look -- maybe. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Sort of like "Sliding Doors" where there are two different realities and we see both... Here, though, it's more of a science fiction tale as the two from each reality switch places and must live each other's lives. Interesting, but the script doesn't really do much with it and never explains how the switch even occurred. However, there is a nice little twist near the end that I didn't expect. Intelligent and entertaining, but didn't take it as far as it could go. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member it's an thought-provoking concept. what if there truly is an alternate reality world in existence and the 'alternate us' there are 360 degrees different than ourselves??? i imagine i would be a famous writer or poet there. in my imagination only. and it's great to see Ellen Pompeo being the bad-ass chick who robs, steals and wields weapons. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie had potential, but fell through the cracks. To bad. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
