*May contain spoilers*
The Panic Room is an excellent movie, with wonderful actors. Though I definitely cannot compare it to movies such as Lord of the Rings (completely different categories), it ranks up high on my list.
The plot is like this: Meg Altman (Jodie Foster) and her daughter, Sarah (Kristen Stewart), decide to move to a new house. The first thing they notice, which was not in their other homes, is something called a "Panic Room" (hence the name of the film). A Panic Room is designed for a person to hide in there if someone were to break into their house. Surprise, surprise; they get some use out of it.
The first night in their new home, someone breaks in. Three men, Burnham (Forest Whitaker), Raoul (Dwight Yoakam), and Junior (Jared Leto), have come to steal some money (approximately three million dollars). The problem is, it's in the Panic Room.
Meg and Sarah have locked themselves in there; unfortunately, Sarah is a diabetic, and her medicine is still outside of the Panic Room. To add on to things, Meg is a bit claustrophobic (afraid of small places). They can't call 9-1-1 (the phone in there isn't connected). One thing leads to another.
I leave the rest for you to find out.
Overall, I give it four out of five stars.
