You strike me as the kind of guy who's on the lookout for a head he can knock off with a shovel.

It's actually a film that shows both the good and bad sides of Johnny Depp and Stephen King adaptations to film form.

Depp plays a writer who whilst going through a divorce and living out in the country in isolation, is suddenly menaced by John Turturo, who claims he is the victim of plagiarism perpetrated by Depp. Mysteries and murky shenanigans to follow...

That the film, in spite of its flimsy heart, is watchable, is down to the two stars, both are filing in for eccentricities and spooky menace respectively. Yet it's a bit of a one trick pony and difficult to take seriously, while it's also surprisingly bloodless, negating the interest of the potential Stephen King blood-lust crowd. The reveal is something of a cheat given what has gone before, belief of suspension is so stretched to breaking point, you literally should be wondering just what all other characters were doing in the film?!

Still, Johnny and John, resplendent with weird hats and hairdo's, give good camera time and save David Koepp's movie from stinker damnation. 6/10

**A successful writer who accused of plagiarism.**

It was based on the novel, though the original title makes more sense than this film. Maybe they wanted to avert the spoiler. But I don't think it would have affected much, because the twist comes at the final segment. The tale of a writer who is in the middle of divorce and now living alone is the lake house got threatened by a stranger, because according to him he stole his story. Followed by many unpleasant events, how he gets out of the trouble told in the next half.

Feels just an okay kind. Though Johnny Depp was good. The suspense was good, particularly in the first half, but later it comes falling down. The second half was average, the twist was not interesting enough. After some point, you might predict it, but the point is it was too familiar. I especially did not like the finale, it was like not in detail. Still a watchable film, because of the actor and for decently made. So I think worth a watch if you keep a low expectation.

_6/10_

Really good watch, would watch again, and can recommend.

This is a great mystery / psychological thriller, but most of what makes it interesting is a spoiler.

They do a great job of creating the tension, or Johnny Depp does, as he's alone on screen for about half the movie.  The rest of the cast is excellent and gives exactly what is needed to bring the movie, and the audience, to a natural conclusion.

**_Suffering betrayal, an author faces challenges at his remote lake house_**

A successful writer (Johnny Depp) is finalizing divorce proceedings while working on a new book at his house on a lake in upstate New York when a hick from the Deep South shows up at his doorstep, accusing him of plagiarism. Maria Bello and Timothy Hutton are on hand as the wife and her beau.

“Secret Window” (2004) is a drama and crime mystery that morphs into thriller/horror in the last act. It was based on Stephen King’s novella, but director David Koepp changed the climax because “the ending is everything,” as the movie argues.

The locations are excellent (cited below) and the depiction of a writer’s mundane daily life is accurate, as well as amusing. Depp is always good while Gillian Ferrabee is a highlight on the female front in a cameo (as Fran Evans). It’s cut from the same cloth as "What Lies Beneath" and, maybe, "Cold Creek Manor,” yet mixed with the later “1922” and an angle that I can’t give away or it’ll ruin your experience (although it’s kinda obvious and predictable). I enjoyed the flick, but it’s underwhelming and won’t watch again. I prefer those other three, yet this isn’t far off.  

The movie runs 1 hour, 36 minutes, and was shot at Bromont Sur Le Lac, Québec, which is about 45 miles east of Montreal, plus areas nearby, including the big city. Second unit work was done in New York City.
