Abigail Clayton lives alone. Very alone. In fact, the attractive heiress has not left her Manhattan penthouse apartment for almost two decades. The famous daughter of a wealthy industrialist, Abigail disappeared from the prying eyes of the press and the intrusiveness of her family on her 18th birthday, the day she received her massive inheritance. During years of self-imposed isolation, Abigail has had contact with only two people-her building's Concierge, Klandermann, with whom she communicates via notes-and Dr. Raymond Fontaine, a longtime family friend and her sole confidant for most of her life. When the death of her elderly neighbor prompts NYPD Homicide Detective Frank Giardello to launch an investigation, the agoraphobic Abigail is distressed to find him outside her door, asking to question her. Having tried to acquire the dead woman's now vacant apartment to ensure her privacy, Abigail is further upset when her requests go unanswered, and new tenants Lillian and Charlie move in. Abigail anxiously monitors her new neighbors from the safety of her front door's peephole, but her well-ordered world begins to unravel when she finally encounters Lillian and Charlie face-to-face-and her sheltered existence becomes threatened in unexpected and terrifying ways.

| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThe story fails to sustain the tension or logic needed and though promising for awhile, it never lives up to its potential. |
| 7M PicturesKevin CarrYou'll likely guess every twist and turn in the plot. But I like to think these movies aren't made to surprise but rather to entertain somewhat passively. |
| User ReviewCarlos Jluv it. no A-listers but great plot nd overall a great movie |
| User ReviewSam NJak film! Mora da se gleda luge! Ova ne se propusta! Giovanni Ribisi,Selma Blair,Beau Bridges,Kevin Pollak. Toa e toa! |
| User ReviewMohammed Ai loved columbus circle. saw it 3 tiimes on tv and watched the dvd twice. great movie, the end was good but i question the behavior of the detective at the very end |
| User ReviewDee Phmmm, have you ever seen the tv series, Revenge? this is something quite like it that keeps me questioning throughout the movie, what's her next move. Selma Blair nailed it again! love the character... |
| User ReviewJ M"Her time of remaining that way will be coming to an end" **** The plot was simplistic, & most likely predictable for a viewer that tries to predict a movie; but bored I was not. Driven by fear Abigail Clayton would rather live completely alone then be used & abused as a pawn; only child & heiress to her father's fortune & empire she escapes the eyes of the world on her eighteenth birthday by going into complete reclusiveness in one of Manhattans richest sides of town. Shortly after the death of her elderly neighbor her time of remaining that way will be coming to an end. ~ I give this film a B + (Bright) |
| User ReviewDan HAs a fan of Blair, Ribisi, Smart, and Lee, it was a real treat. Plenty of twists. |
| User ReviewDavid DA smart thriller full of the sort of twists and turns that keep the viewer guessing as to what is really going on and why. Excellent performances by the two stars (Selma Blair and Amy Smart) with equally strong supporting performances. |
| User Reviewroger tvery entertaining...this thriller will keep you guessing until the end.... |
