    Good little thriller here.Acting is good and the surpense is well done to.Again nice to see a twist at the end that i did.nt see coming which made this movie well above par.Worth a look people..

    An exciting, well-paced thriller that loses all my respect due to a dumb-ass ending.

    It's rare to come across a modern thriller/horror that actually thrills and scares; this film manages to do that.

    Two friends travel to Mexico hoping for a memorable vacation but a late shuttle bus ride from the airport turns horribly wrong when they realized that they are being transported in a place that is not part of their plans.

    I wanted to like this movie but again, I couldn't stop th...( read more)inking how stupid the characters are. They obviously outnumber their kidnapper(s) but they just make the wrong decisions!

    This movie is bad.

    You know how someone can say one thing in a movie, or do one thing in a movie, or something happens, and you think wow.. well credibility is shot there, that sucks.. and it brings down the whole movie? That happens CONSTANTLY in this film.

    For example,...( read more) they are in a major city..Boston I believe.. and can't get a cell signal? What, is that because they are driving through the "hood"?? It seems to be what they want you to believe??

    That is only one of the many illogical or common sense lacking events in this movie. The characters and their actions make no sense. There are so many things in this movie that people in real life simply wouldn't do, or would do and don't. If I were on that shuttle I would have escaped or died trying 100 times over.. there is no chance it would have gone down like that.

    I didn't like it, and I can only imagine the people and "critics" (hah!) who are rating this well, simply haven't seen a decent movie with the same theme and atmosphere.. IE: P2, Panic Room, and another that comes to mind, but I don't want to say as it might "ruin" the ending.

    Not that it could be since everything is completely predictable, and what they probably hope to be plot "twists" aren't.. there are no suprises.

    This thriller has some twists and turns which i like for that reason.Creepy thing to think about coming late at night to an airport,no shuttle or cabs for me.I better arrange someone i know to pick me up.

    A film I had no prior knowledge of going in that really surprised me. There's plenty of twists and turns abound while the characters are basically stupid and do things that normal people would never do, but that's the kind of thing you just get used to and it really doesn't bothe...( read more)r me anymore. I think the story is strong enough to make up for it though.

    Great dark film. Edge of your seat nail-biter with a gut-puncher of an ending that does "The Mist" one better. Loved it!

    Original idea...better than most.

Critic Reviews

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune

The film is an efficiently engineered mechanism for creating suspense. full review

March 19, 2009
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

There is no release for the audience, no 'entertainment,' not even much action excitement. Just a remorseless march into the dark. full review

March 12, 2009
Ty Burr, Boston Globe

Shuttle mostly exists, in the words of Alfred Hitchcock, to 'put the audience through it,' but it leaves you in a very different place than where it started and with remarkable economy of effort. full review
