CHAOS (1999)

Hideo Nakata, who was behind Ringu (1998), has created an interesting and suspenseful story in Chaos as the beautiful wife of a wealthy businessman vanishes.  It appears that she is kidnapped, and she is brutally handled by the kidnapper.  As the story reveals itself, it develops into a thriller in the spirit of Hitchcock, yet the film has its own character.  Throughout Chaos there are several twists and turns which the audience has to squirm through in order to reach the films conclusion.  In the end, Chaos is a pretty good criminal drama that offers a fine cinematic experience.
