David Hyde Pierce was very good. It's surprising to see a guy who I know mostly as a dorky actor from Frasier, go and perform the way he did in a movie like this. He pulls off an Oldman-worthy role. Honestly I feel he might be partially insane in the brain in his real life to be able to act this out so well. I also very much enjoyed his vocal skills in the 2nd half of the movie.
The movie itself was like a mix of Funny Games, meets I Saw the Devil and Misery, which meets the Frasier cast while they are visiting a psycho ward. I could have done without the flashbacks. They were done in a bit of a cheesy way. Cheesy isn't the right word, how about just not done well. Anyway, the entire experience was fun if you are a person that likes psycho thrillers. Also for those that haven't seen the trailer yet, there are a lot of twists which are unexpected. The supporting roles of Roman and the others were a bit annoying as well, but I get it. Definitely worth watching tonight.
