Without a doubt the worst movie I ever thought I was liking
29 January 2005
I'm a fan of psychological thrillers. A big fan. I'm also a person that dislikes clichés and scenarios that are overused (most often in this type of movie.) I believe this movie had a lot of promise in the beginning, then when you got to know Radha Mitchell a little better, something about her really bugged me. I think she's capable of better. She overacted her attitude. Her kind, sweet face leaves you feeling betrayed. Why couldn't they give that girl a little more personality and (considering her personal story, which is very fuzzy at best) a little move savvy sense? Josh Lucas was *brilliant* in this movie. I think he honestly was the best of the bunch. His character's weirdness was so believable.

Likewise, I enjoyed watching Barry Watson. I hope that his future roles give him a little more "meat" to act from. I honestly believe he played this role the best he possibly could have. There just wasn't a whole lot there to draw from.

Overall, I was left with a feeling of slightly having wasted my time at the end, because the end of this movie was a huge blank. It left me with a feeling that the movie was not the same one I started watching so long ago... too long to get to that empty ending. I honestly wish they would have at least told what was on the CD. Big bummer.
