Onlinewsma Absolutely Brilliant!

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

pointwardenemy I'm just an average guy. This movie was good enough that I stayed up late on a work night to watch it thru to the end, followed by staying up even later to write this review.It's entertaining enough to cut my sleep to six hours. There were a few scenes where I became drawn in enough that I found myself giving encouragement to the Father figure character, and putting myself in his shoes for a little while, until they became to small and tight on my feet. The end of the movie left me wanting just another 5 minutes. If only we could just be in the room 5 more minutes, I think all hell would have broken loose and all couples watching could learn what happens when we push each other just an inch too far. Enjoy!

David Holt (rawiri42) Butterfly on a Wheel is a very pleasant change from most American thrillers where so much reliance is placed on 'way over-the-top action sequences' that never happen in real life. Everything is at the same time both gripping and low-key and that isn't easy. So well done director Mike Barker (I'll be watching for more of your work) and to what is, basically, a cast of three.It was interesting to see Pierce Brosnan as the 'bad guy' rather than the hero and, when you watch the film, I'm sure you'll agree, he was quite loathsome with his cool, calculating manner.I won't include spoilers here but leave you to see if you can work out the reason for everything. No doubt some of you (smart-asses!!) will and get all blasé about that but I didn't. I thought I did but, in the end, I was wrong - and, when you think about it, that's what makes a thriller great isn't it?Well worth a second watch.

ffmskyline This movie is literally one of the worst I have ever seen. I don't even know where to start.With the awful plot that makes no sense after the first 10 minutes? With the motivation for the kidnapping that was pretty much revealed in the first 10 minutes? That is if you are not braindead it's pretty easy to figure out.Great acting? I always thought of Brosnan as a respectable actor but not anymore.And nobody should be surprised by the ending.Sometimes you just want to pick up a movie for the evening and you don't expect to much.But after watching this I am actually angry I wasted my time on this.How could anyone greenlight this?

Sam Matras I enjoyed watching this movie (on TV). One of my best movie-evenings for several weeks. At first it seems like a movie where the irrational madness of Tom Ryan (Pierce Brosnan) enters the perfect life of a perfect couple (Gerard and Maria). Gerard and Maria are forced into doing things that will eventually destroy their lives. This would be enough to satisfy an action-addict like me, but as the madness evolves Tom Ryan increasingly symbolizes some demonic darkness within this seemingly perfect relationship, a kind of bad conscience leading to a raving night-mare. (My interpretation)At the end Gerard is forced into crossing his final moral boundary, and at this point Tom and Gerard swap their roles in the movie: Tom becoming the protagonist and Gerard becoming the immoral antagonist.Until this point the movie is splendid, but the end including the actual role of Maria is a bit shallow and could have been better written. Nevertheless it is definitely worth watching, partially because of the high-quality music that lifts the movie.
