Still waters run deadly in this gripping suspense thriller about the extraordinary depths to which seemingly ordinary people will sink in the name of love.

Tilda Swinton "is magnificent" (The New York Times) as housewife Margaret Hall, a fiercely protective mother caught in a vortex of deception when it appears that her son may be guilty of murder. One desperate act leads to another, and soon she`s being blackmailed by the mysterious Alek Spera (E.R.`s Goran Visnjic). But what begins as a riveting cat-and-mouse game between them soon evolves into a haunting romance.

Immersed in the tradition of Hitchcock`s best twists and turns, The Deep End "holds its suspense to the very last drop." (The Toronto Star)

erwartungsvoll...

...warte ich jetzt auf diesen Film. Warum? Es ist ein Remake eines wunderbaren, spannenden Film Noir von Marcel Ophuls aus dem Jahr 1949, mit Joan Bennett und James Mason. Kann mir zwar kaum vorstellen, das diese Neuverfilmung nach der gleichen Buchvorlage das Niveau des Originals erreichen wird. Doch Tilda Swinton sorgt sicher für einen mindestens sehenswerten Film.
Notabene finde ich die meisten hier veröffentlichen Meinungen über Filme arg daneben und von Unkenntnis der Materie.

Ein äusserst langweiliger Thriller. Erinnert mich einwenig an die Serie Akte-X
..auf einmal hört der Film einfach auf (Ich erwache auf dem Sofa und gehe ins Bett).

Bolli leider bin i nid ganz dinere meinig!! Ich finde de film hammermässig!! ja er isch scho nid mit action überfüllt!! aber er hed vom Inhalt her sehr vill zbüte und dschauspieler bietet en grandiosi Leistig! Hochachtig!! Wer Filme wie Signs, Unbreakable, The sixth Sense, Im Zeichen der Libelle gseh und guet findet wärded au vo dem begeistert si!!
Settigi Filme hend äbe Inhalt und bietet nid eso en totale mist wie american pie, austin powers, bend it like beckham, und anderi billegi Hollywoodschlaftablette-Filmli. Chan nume eis säge GENIAL!!!
