Nathan Conrad is a well-known psychiatrist, who has to deal with Elisabeth Burrows, a disturbing and strange 18 year old girl, who won't say much. When Nathan's daughter, Jessie then gets kidnapped, the main bad guy, Patrick (With the help of some creepy men.) put a surveillance around Nathan's home to keep watch on his wife and tells Nathan that he won't give his daughter back, until he can get him a six digit number out of his patient Elisabeth, which is "locked in her troubled little mind."
Don't Say A Word is a different, yet good psychological thriller. Now, the main plot to the movie is obviously about the six digit number that is wanted by Patrick and he's going to do anything to get it, so he can get his jewel. Now, of course we're going to think of things like 'what is the number' or 'why does he want this jewel so badly, even after 10 years,' etc. so when we find out, as the movie goes on, (Even though they basically tell us at the beginning.) we're still left thinking 'is that it.' Okay, fine he wanted the money that the jewel is worth, but poor Elisabeth, especially is she's apparently pretending to be 'mad,' just so she can escape the bad guys and stay in the institution. Don't Say A Word is a suspenseful and good movie and I wasn't expecting the biggest and best twist or anything, but when you get things like that coming up, it's not good. Good performances from most of the cast in the movie, including the great Michael Douglas and Brittany Murphy. I love thrillers and if you enjoy thrillers too, then go see Don't Say A Word.
