Panic Room: Claustrophobia Done Right, or Just Overhyped?

Okay, so I finally got around to watching "Panic Room" again last night, and I'm still wrestling with it. On one hand, the sheer tension is undeniable. Fincher really knows how to crank up the pressure cooker. I mean, that opening sequence with the credits weaving around the brownstone blueprints? Genius. And Jodie Foster, as always, just anchors the whole thing. But I can't shake the feeling that it's all a bit… superficial? Specifically, the motivations of the burglars always felt a little thin to me. I get it, they want the bonds, but their plan seems needlessly convoluted and risky, especially considering how much noise they make. And Sarah, played by Kristen Stewart, while good, does pull off a few character choices that felt a bit forced. Like when she chooses not to call from the phone room a second time, or when she randomly has diabetes. It's a well-written reason why they can't stay in the room forever, but it felt a little random. I'm not sure if all these elements are simply plot devices moving characters in the right spot, or if they all have meaning. What I'm really curious about is how people felt about the overall logic of the situation. Did you buy it? Did the plot holes (and let's be honest, there are a few) detract from the enjoyment of the film? Or were you so caught up in the suspense that you didn't even notice them? I'm leaning towards the latter, but after some time has passed, it felt like I'm watching a house of cards crumble under its own premise. Thoughts? I've always been a sucker for these tight-space thrillers but maybe this one hasn't aged as well as I expected.
