Great acting. Editing was perfect. Loved the suspense and twists in the plot.

Got lost along the way with all of the "red herrings." The script could have been shorter and less wandering. The five main actors all did themselves proud. We will wait to see if the third time is the charm for the director.

Very good suspense thriller and I have to admit I tried to predict the outcome even before the movie started and based it solely on the description from the newsletter (I had a wife being the culprit and doing the “set-up/revenge”, which was of course was one of the many directions this film lead the viewer). I would very much recommend this film to those who want a great cinema experience and are not discouraged by subtitles. I have to admit it was a little embarrassing to hear from our guest speaker last night that Warner Brothers/U.S. attempted to imply that 5 men committing adultery would just be too inconceivable for an American audience and that one husband would ONLY be at the loft to play video games…SERIOUSLY?!?! We’ve had a U.S. President commit adultery while in office!!! Despite all that I am very glad Director Van Looy stuck to his guns and is going to be able to keep the integrity of the film, I just hope there is no further attempt by “us” to try and mess it up.
