Rating: Summary: Fincher + Foster = Good movie !!!! Review: Jodie Foster did an incredible job in this movie and kudos to her and Kristen Stewart who played her daughter. I don't want to give anything away about the movie but it was definitley one that I would recommend to my friends, male and female alike.I was sitting on the edge of my theater chair during a large portion of the end. Forrest Whitaker also did an excellent job in his role as bad/good guy. You wanted to feel sorry for him but he just wouldn't do the right thing... And David Fincher (his best movie is Fight Club) is a master of illusion. Great camera working. Anyway, don't take my word for it, go see it. I don't think you'll regret it.
Rating: Summary: Next to Joy Ride the scariest movie I've seen this year ! Review: In Panic Room, Writer David Koepp and Director David Fincher manage to generate suspense from a seemingly impossible set-up: A mother & daughter locked in an impenetrable vault (The titular "Panic Room"), while a trio of criminals try to get in, or failing that, to coerce them into coming out. This "Die Hard in a room" set-up could easily have been an overwrought action dud, but Koepp and Fincher build the characters and situation slowly, giving us time to get to know the principals.There are only 5 actors in the first 75 minutes and all 5 principal actors are excellent; Jared Leto(robber) and Dwight Yoakum (robber) are appropriately menacing, Forrest Whitaker(robber) manages to be a criminal AND a human being, and Jodie Foster (mother Meg Altman) is superb as usual. Kristen Stewart (daughter Sarah Altman) is great in her rolle, and the resemblance between Foster and Stewart is remarkable. Great casting all around. This movie is a masterpiece and very scary. I think next to "Joy Ride" the scariest movie I've seen this year.

Rating: Summary: Fifth masterpiece from David Fincher !! Review: Panic Room is the best thriller I have seen in years with this style and energy. Jodie Foster is believable as the divored Mom. I wish she did more like this because you hardly see Jodie Foster in movies anymore, but this is a trimph for Foster! Director Fincher(Alien3, Se7en, The Game, Fight Club)has much for an eye of capturing his actors and his style of the movie. It's very rare when the main charactor doesn't do anything stupid! Huray. The film is geniously suspensfull. It always is true to what it is and never anything else. I loved Panic Room and I can garenttee that you will have a good time seeing it. No matter if you like it or don't...you will have a good time. It is not a horror film at all for those who don't like them. I am suggesting that everyone who reads this should see Panic Room. It's a lot of fun for everyone in your household! rated R for violence, and language nothing else.
Rating: Summary: No Panic about panic room Review: Panic room is a great movie. I've seen it twice and would have seen it again, but time would not allow. Jodie Foster is great in this performance as usual. Forest Whitaker was just ok. Maybe he was still thinking about the Fat Albert flop. Not sure what was on his mind, but the movie was original and filled with excitment and unexpected activity. I recommend this movie to anyone who wants originality and excitement all at the same time.
Rating: Summary: One of the best movies 2002 ! Review: Panic Room is a great Thriller from the director of Se7en, The Game and Fight Club: David Fincher. His directing is very good. The Actors are great: Jodie Foster(first Nicole Kidman) is typical amazing and Forrest Whittaker is frightening. The Plat is not bad. I think you must see this movie, its one of the best. Thanks David Fincher, Thanks Jodie Foster!
Rating: Summary: Fincher should quit Review: Yes, it's a nice movie. A little bit of suspense, laughs and nice camera movements but... Do you all remember who is David Fincher? He directed the two great movies "The Game" & "Se7en". Do you remember who is Jodie Foster? She got the Oscar for "Silence Of The Lambs". Now when I went to the cinema to watch a movie starring Jodie Foster & directed by David Fincher I expected the ultimate of thriller & suspense. I expected a terrifying twisted end. Panic Room is fine but it is not what I expected from Fincher & Foster... maybe it was my mistake that my expectations were high, I don't know. But one thing for sure... David Fincher lost his touch!
Rating: Summary: David Fincher is THE M-A-N Review: This isn't Fincher's best work, but it's still a very great film. His direction and the cinematography is just brilliant. The way Fincher uses CG is just incredible...the camera swooping, going through walls and close to flashlights. Wow! Did I mention the very good performances from Foster, Whitaker, and Leto? This is a must for all Fincher fans and anyone who enjoys some thrills.
Rating: Summary: Don't Panic Review: How can it be that in a horror movie, you can be hit over the head with a shovel and be hit over the banisters down two flights of stairs falling on your head and get up and still know not only where you are but who you are, and I know of people who trip over their feet and twist an ankle and cannot walk.....But lets be sensible for a mo, Jodie Foster is great at pulling loads of faces, just when she is ment to, I love her to bits, her acting is as ever, very very good, and this film lets you know that even if your doing bad, you might just have a heart too. well done Jodie, I'll buy the DVD when it comes out. Any chance of some tickets or something Jodie.
Rating: Summary: Great Acting, Great Directing, Great Movie !!!!!!!! Review: Panic Room is a great Movie, because the acting is wonderfull (Jodie Foster: need I say more?), but directing!! Fincher will win the oscar!! The Plot is total new!! So you must see Panic Room!!
