Brief Review of the Film "The Hitcher" (2007)

I haven't seen the original so keep that in mind with this review. I thought the movie was a good action film, with enough violence, gore, and suspense to make it a good thriller. The problem with this movie is that you don't end up caring about the characters in the end. The hitcher himself also has no character development which could have mad his character more frightening. The ending was also a little disappointing. It could have been better if the hitcher lived at the end and could have set the plot up for continuation in a sequel. Overall, highly entertaining, but certainly not an award winner for plot or acting.

I rated this movie 8 out of 10 stars at IMDB.com.
