Inspired casting and a grim sense of humour help sustain the unlikely thrills in M Night Shyamalan's latest about a family man who learns police have him surrounded at a stadium concert and are closing in, but you spend a long time waiting for this "No Way Out" scenario to pop and not only does it never pop, there comes halfway through the movie a shift into a second and then third unwelcome act, as though even Shyamalan felt trapped by his plot contrivance, and rather than maintaining the black fun in these second and third add-on chapters things become mired in some especially unfun and longwinded expositon of the Psycho-endscene type.
★★★☆☆
