    Beware of thy neighbor

    Two neighbors strike up a friendship that quickly spirals out of control when an accident happens that changes both lives. This movie, while a little predictablble in the sense, that as a viewer you know that this friendship can't end well, is straight forward, and was well done. Johnathan Rhys Meyers definetly carries it, but the other actors are ok too. Pacing sometimes a little slow, but overall good.

    If only we understood Latvian!!

    Just watched this. A clever and increasingly sinister plot ruined because a significant amount of the content was spoken in Latvian - especially the closing dialogue!! We tried turning subtitles on but the subtitles were not that informative (might have been our broadcaster) - e.g "Woman speaking Latvian".

    If you can understand Latvian and like crime dramas with twists, you'll probably like this. If you don't understand Latvian, you will miss out on some important (I assume!!) dialogue!!

    Too many unlikely coincidences in an otherwise decent movie

    This movie is completely guided by coincidences and unlikely things happening. It started off rather promising and I was curious to see where the movie would go even though the trailer pretty much spoiled the complete first act. Anyway after watching for a while the movie turned to the classic tropes and had little originality left.

    You have a familiar premise where things are done slightly different but it's overall the same thing you likely have seen before. That being said the movie is not bad, it's tense and suspenseful and really draws you into the story, even though you have no one to really root for. The acting is fine but not great and the overall production value was pretty good. Overall it's a decent movie that doesn't reinvent the genre and gets dragged down by some of its flaws. [5,6/10]

    What would you have done?

    This one of those movies that starts out with the question what any of us would have in the same situation as the protagonist. What if you did something bad and you could get away with it? Has been done before. But the performances are really strong. Jonathan Rhys Meyers is great in his mix of subtle and all out moments. Luke Kleintank does a good job, being relatable while at the same time going down a slippery slope. The film has a retro feel in its premise, and also the pacing is not superfast, but the tension rises constantly to a surprising climax.

    • Trivia
      Remake of the 2011 german movie "Unter Nachbarn" (The good Neighbour).
    • Goofs
      The Police question David and Robert about them leaving the club on that fateful night and they say they took the tram back home at around 12.30 a.m. Later, when Vanessa steps out from the same club and waits for the Tram, a line worker comes and tells her that she should take the bus instead as the Trams are being renovated and does not run after 10.00 p.m. She asks him since when, to which he replies, about a month. Being a small town, the Police would have surely known that the Tram service is suspended after 10.00 p.m. and that David and Robert has told a lie about taking the Tram at 12.30 a.m. and would have arrested them subsequently.
