Trivia:
According to Bruce Beresford in a book he wrote, Steven Seagal asked for a supporting role but was declined. moreGoofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Ray is showing Sandra how to use the pistol, he says that "this gun has no safety... just pull the trigger." This model revolver does have a slide safety located just in front of the grip on the left side. moreSoundtrack:

This film was a real let-down for Cusack and Freeman fans alike.
A movie doesn't have to have a large cast, doesn't need to include special effects, it can be good even if it runs for only 83 minutes and is set mostly in the woods- but in this case it just didn't work.
There are so many movies that come to mind while watching this one, déjà-vu all the time.
The plot is also very predictable and nothing much happens.
The only good thing is the scenery but the talents of the two stars are waisted here.
They did succeed in putting some Starbucks and Sony product placements in there though, even if the setting almost didn't allow for it.
