I mean what's not to love. Nicole Kidman is as pretty in the face as her body is average. Daniel Craig is barely recognizable. Like his makeup and hair people wanted to make him just a little schlubby but didn't consider that maybe people might want to recognize him. But 2007 was a magical time it's possible and likely this was filmed before Casino Royale really introduced North America to Craig. Jeffrey Wright is a bit underutilized but in 2007 when wasn't he. Jackson Bond as the child Oliver fades in to the background which for a child is amazing. Child actors are at they're worse when they're distractingly bad but Jackson isn't. I find Oliver as a character annoying but that's how he's written not because Jackson is annoying.

The tension in this movie is just great. The editing could have been smoother I don't remember it being so jarring when I saw it in theatres. The movie even does a mostly decent job of presenting a plausible narrative although you could write a graduate thesis about a movie where everyone gets taken down except Nicole Kidman. Twice two black dudes give her the survival game. Three is you count the fact that Wright's Stephen Galeano is the one who break down that sleeping triggers the change. But it's fine. It mostly flows pretty well.
