Unhappily, although Ian McEwan's screenplay has its strong points, and Ruben skillfully builds tension and suspense, this updated, gender-bent Bad Seed falters at key points. Full Review

There's wonderful use made of a Maine port town, and Ruben gets a dizzying thrill or two out of overhead shots, but the conceptual overload finally prevents this from coming together. Full Review

Product Description:

Macaulay Culkin goes bad in this story about a boy who tries to eliminate his family members one by one. Elijah Wood, who has gone on to an impressive career as an adult, costars. Audiences should see the 1956 movie, THE BAD SEED, for an interesting comparison.
