Again the director's obsession with the puzzle and the video.

Another good Atom film. I did miss out on something crucial to the plot because of the subtle nature of the film and the fact I was a ill, so be aware. A change from his previous two movies in that the dark mystery element I enjoy is here, that's not to say his previous films are bad because I like them as much. The usual themes of obsession, damage and deep-seated sexual themes which are suggestive and provocative. It's always a good ride. The failing of this movie for me was that I didn't really think the conclusion was clear and it was on the cusp of being powerful but just didn't make it.
