Ira Levin's novel on which this movie is based is one of the cleverest, tautest thrillers I've ever read. One twist in particular has made everyone I know start the book again in disbelief and re-read the entire narrative up to that point before continuing.
I was almost in tears when I saw how this ingenious plotting has been totally shredded to make a cheap pot-boiler of a film. Most of the book's twists are even revealed in the IMDB synopsis of the film.
Since you've presumably already read the synopsis it's a bit futile my writing this. Still, for what it's worth, if you're considering renting this movie please, I beg of you, save the money and buy a copy of the book.
