Some things I liked some I did not.

A different way of telling a story

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Iren Koster is a real auteur. Full of ideas that are realized on the screen with genuine skill and vision. Full of action and excitement.This is the hallmark of the Koster directorial approach. I unqualifiedly recommend this film all film aficionados who really enjoy entertainment and a thriller.These Australian actors are comparable to the finest American actors. Enjoyed the locations and great production value.I read that Koster's next project is the action comedy "Perfect Partners". I am looking forward to viewing it on the big screen.Koster has a knack for nabbing "A" talent like Eddie Griffin and Michael Clarke Duncan.

I am a big fan of thrillers and I have to say that Dead End fulfills all of your expectations if you want to make your heart race and jump out of your seat. It's also a film where you'll find yourself wondering just who the real killer is. I'm usually good at figuring out what's going to happen next. However, this does not fit the formula. It has too many red herrings to sidetrack your thinking. In fact, I had no clue until the ending where we finally see just who the culprit really is. I thought the story was exceptional, the actors are terrific and the movie looks really good. You have to love the Australian locations. This film would make a great poster for tourism. Oh yeah, there's a scene where the two lead actors are driving around having dinner in a tram car restaurant. That was the first time I've ever seen anything like that. Talk about romantic. But beware if your faint hearted, some of the murder sequences are graphic and the sex scenes are very sexy. I would say done with good taste but still very sexy. If you want a great ride into the world of psychological thrillers, then Dead End is a good bet. I recommend it highly.

I didn't know what to expect when I sat down to watch this movie but I must say I was pleasantly surprised. The acting, directing & locations are first rate. Would be a sure hit in the states if big name actors were involved. Bottom Line: Definitely worth seeing.

I thought this movie was well planned out. Nicely acted, written and directed. If there were name stars in this picture, it would be a classic thriller. All the actors are Australian and the production value and locations are first rate. I enjoyed it and would recommend it. If you're a fan of Hitchcock, it shouldn't be missed. It does have some nudity but I thought it was done in good taste.
