"Columbus Circle" is a suspenseful thriller movie that was released in 2012. It features a star-studded cast, including Selma Blair, Amy Smart, and Kevin Pollak. The movie is directed by George Gallo, who is also known for his work on "Bad Boys" and "The Whole Ten Yards." The film tells the story of a wealthy heiress named Abigail Clayton, played by Selma Blair. Abigail is a recluse who has lived alone in her spacious Manhattan apartment building, Columbus Circle, for almost two decades. She is extremely cautious and paranoid about her surroundings, to the point that she has installed high-security measures to protect herself from any potential threats.

However, Abigail's carefully constructed world is disrupted when a mysterious new neighbor moves into the building, Lillian Hart (Amy Smart). Lillian is an outgoing, bubbly woman who manages to charm everyone she meets, including Abigail's piano tutor, a kindly gentleman named Klandermann (Kevin Pollak), who lives in the same building.

As Abigail watches Lillian closely from afar, she begins to suspect that something is not quite right about her new neighbor. When Klandermann is found dead in his apartment, Abigail becomes convinced that Lillian is responsible. With the help of a handsome detective, Abigail sets out to investigate Lillian and uncover the truth.

The movie is well-paced and delivers plenty of suspenseful moments that will keep the audience on the edge of their seats. Selma Blair delivers a standout performance as the damaged, paranoid Abigail, who must confront her fears and take action to protect herself.

Amy Smart also delivers a compelling performance as Lillian, effortlessly portraying her character's charm and likability while also hinting at a darker side beneath the surface. Kevin Pollak is similarly impressive as Klandermann, bringing warmth and levity to the movie's tense atmosphere.

The movie's setting is another standout feature, as the Columbus Circle apartment building becomes a character in its own right. The lavish, isolated building serves as a fitting backdrop for the movie's themes of paranoia and isolation.

The film's twist ending is unexpected and satisfying. It will leave viewers reflecting on the true nature of trust and tenderness in our world, especially as societal forces oppose such things. In conclusion, "Columbus Circle" is a well-crafted, expertly executed thriller that is well worth watching.
