How Far Will You Go To Keep A Secret? Following the unsolved murder of one of her childhood friends, New York City newspaper reporter, Rowena Price (Halle Berry), decides to go undercover to investigate the case herself. Her search leads her on a chase through the darkest corners of the Internet as she observes her primary suspect, multi-millionaire, Harrison Hill (Bruce Willis). As a CEO of a powerful advertising company, Hill is a very respected and public individual, but that helps Rowena keep a close eye on him. As she jumps between various on-line and real-life personalities, she searches for any signs of guilt or weakness in her subject. With the help of an IT wiz and hacker named Miles Haley (Giovanni Ribisi), and using the anonymity of the Internet to her advantage, she hopes to finally achieve some justice as she tracks down the killer online.

This film had the elements of a really good thriller; a great cast and cinematography, lots of twists and slatherings of glamour, but somehow it never came together. Disjointed with tacked on court room montage towards the finale, and lacking the poignancy it needed, in the hands of a more adept filmmaking it just might have worked. One of those films that you might find surfing channels on late night tv, it's forgettable, unfortunately.

MOVIE BUFF!!!

Yes I saw this one when it first came out, forgot most of it including the ending. Big fan of Hayley and Bruce Fantastic plot don't see the ending until your right on it good mix of characters or is it, just enough suspence, action, and thrills to deliver an entertaining thriller. p.s just goes to show we all have dark secrets and know how to hide them.

It was just OK for me. Yeah it had a few twists but not much different to twists I've seen many times before. Wasn't really suitable for the kids.

Good enough to keep you interested but nothing nail-biting about it. Solid performances and a good, unexpected ending make up for the lack of thrill.

oh dear this movie is very lame.... the story line and writing are so lame that not even these actors could salvage it... some dialog is laughably bad, its all a very predictable story line, not developed nearly enough... it almost seemed like some college grad with a father with money let him make a film... then a production team tried to fix it in post production - it seems amateur with great equipment and actors...

OK movie, but there are several problems with this film. You couldn't pick the ending because it was very far-fetched and very left-field. Halle Berry plays a fairly unlikeable character - rude, blunt and manipulative. Bruce Willis is the best thing here, playing a very powerful, yet flawed character. Worth a look, but don't expect too much.

Surprisingly good acting in this thriller with lots of unpredictable twists and turns. A few plot holes with the technical aspects of the story don't detract too much. Great to see Willis doing something other than save the world with a wry smile.

I was really disappointed with this movie. Bruce Willis was under-utilised and there was very little chemistry between him and Halle Berry. The plot had quite a few twists and turns which left you wondering "whodunit" but the ending was totally far-fetched.
