James Caan is pretty cool in some things so it could be interesting.

Seems whenever I post that Ill be watching a movie "this weekend" I wind up digging up the thread a little over a year later, still not having watched it.

However now this is physically in my hand, and I'll be watching it in a matter of minutes, unless I fall down the stairs or something on my way.

Anyone seen it/Like it? They filmed part of it where I live!

In short, this was amazing.

For a longer review, look down. This is copy/pasted from the Last Seen Movie thread:

Without a doubt this is the best movie that I've seen in a very long time. The Story centers around the agoraphobic, amnesiac superintendent of an apartment building called, as you guessed, Jericho Mansions. When one of the residents is murdered, dark secrets come out and wounds from his past are reopened. What secrets do the walls of Jericho Mansions contain?

To avoid spoilers, that's the best I can give you for plot. Kept in guessing until the very end in true thriller fashion. For a change the twist ending was completely unexpected and very well done. All the actors, especially James Cann, gave great performances. I do wish some of the characters had more screen time, but that wasn't a huge problem. The CGI effects left a lot to be desired, but the idea behind them was pretty good.

Overall this is a great mystery that sucks you in right from the opening. I found it in a bargain bin for $5, and if you happen to be browsing through just such a bin I highly recommend picking this up. Amazing film that deserves alot more recognition.

9/10

Figured I may as well bump this again, see if I might not be the only one that's seen this hidden gem.

I enjoyed this one. I have always enjoyed James Caan and again he puts out a good performance.
