"You killed the wrong man."

Preston Tylk finds out something that rocks his world: his wife has been having an affair. He and his wife Emily get into a fight and we find out that she broke it off with the other guy by letter instead of in person. Jonathan, the lover, calls and talks to Preston, who leaves in a rage. When Preston has had enough time to think things over, he decides that he and Emily need to talk and goes home to find her murdered. Suspecting Jonathan, the jilted lover, he goes to his house and is attacked by someone he assumes to be Jonathan and he kills them, then buries the body. He goes back home and Jonathan is waiting for him, letting him know that he killed the wrong man. Jonathan thinks Preston killed Emily and Preston thinks Jonathan killed Emily. Was it Jonathan or Preston? Or did Preston really kill the wrong man or the right man?

This movie is a suspenseful delight of twists and turns. You never really figure out who is responsible for Emily's death until the very end. As always, Norman Reedus was brilliant in this film! He portrays the angry brother set out for revenge for his brother's death. Luke Wilson gave an emotional portrayal of a husband who has to deal with his wife's infidelity and her murder in the same day. The film is a constant chase beginning with Jonathan being the one chasing and then ending up being the one being chased. It toys with your emotions because you feel sorry for Jonathan and then you feel sorry for Preston, back and forth, until you realize that both men are exactly the same in so many ways. This film will keep you from looking to see how much time is left while watching! Check it out!

I rate this film: 9
