So It Turns Out Jennifer Lopez Can Act...
23 July 2015
To my own surprise, I have to say I was impressed with Jennifer Lopez's performance. Having seen most of her movies, I was convinced that she was one of the lousiest actresses around. I thought she was completely hopeless. She is so one-dimensional in all of her movies, that I was sure she is simply not capable of portraying anyone other than herself. So, compared to her other movies, this is, thus far, her finest performance, I think.

The movie is not perfect; I thought the whole story was a bit underdeveloped and rushed, but it's watchable. It is not exactly the quality I'd expect from a Hollywood thriller; it has the feel of a made-for-TV flick.

The twist was the highlight of the movie. Didn't see it coming. Nice one.

Worth a look. Like I said, it was interesting to discover that Jennifer Lopez is not entirely talentless after all.
