A bit overrated, but still an amazing film
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
I found this movie very interesting and fun and i love Nikki Reed in this. It had me glued from start to finish. Very good performance from all characters. It made me laugh and shocked me a little also. I didn't think i was going to like it but surprisingly it was a really good movie. I would definitely recommend it if you like dark comedy.
With Alec Baldwin, Jeff Goldblum, and Luke Wilson on board, this should have been a far better film. Luke Wilson's character comes across as a "Columbo" clone, with his bumbling questions. Alec Baldwin must have simply been on an ego trip, pairing up with Nikki Reed, while Jeff Goldblum acts like he is in a completely different picture. Parts of the movie having to do with the demise of Reed's Mother, Carrie-Anne Moss, border on sadism, and seem highly unlikely. What you wind up with is a failed black comedy, along with a failed attempt at duplicating an episode of "Columbo", with zero likable characters. Not a total disaster, but not recommended either. - MERK
Not hard to see why this movie is hardly know and why it never got released globally in cinemas. It's a very mediocre movie in basically every way imaginable and it just isn't that much special in terms of its originality, despite having an impressive cast in it.The movie tries to achieve several things throughout but it hardly succeeds fully in any of them. For a thriller it's too light, for a comedy it's not funny enough and for a drama it's not serious enough. the movie tries very hard to be all those things really, with as a result a movie that you just whether don't know to laugh or to be shocked.Besides it's story isn't very impressive or original. The movie tells its story from the viewpoint of the Nikki Reed character mostly, which makes it odd that we as a viewer never get to know or see what her characters true intentions with the things she does are throughout the movie. Not some very good film-making from the director's and writer's part, which are the same person by the way. The movie is certainly watchable but due that it's also being really average with basically everything it is also easily a movie you can easily do without.This movie would had even been lesser known had it not been for it's impressive cast-list. Actors like Alec Baldwin, Nikki Reed, Jeff Goldblum, Carrie-Anne Moss and Luke Wilson all make appearances in this movie. Alec Baldwin is really an actor who gets better with the years and also seems to benefit from the fact that he is getting older. In the beginning of his career he was still being looked upon as the baby-faced pretty boy from the Baldwin family but now he more shows what his qualities truly are. It also was good to see Jeff Goldblum acting again, since I hadn't seen him in anything recently. His particular acting style always remains a pleasure to watch.Watchable enough little movie but just nothing too special really.6/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
When I watched this film I got stricken with a horrible feeling. I was trying to figure it out what it was then it dawned on me; it was not the movie but rather the fact that, despite being just a movie, one is reminded about how it really is in America. The women here are just as portrayed in this flick. Though they may not act out what they really want to do, don't fool yourself. They think just as these characters and this is what's disturbing most. The men, equally likewise; they are desperate women firster douchebags who will do anything for a whiff of snatch, including being duped by the scams females play. There really is no innocence in this country today.
