"The Perfect Guy" a movie to make your entire body shiver with goosebumps. I would give this movie 4.5 out of 5 stars. This movie is filled with action and suspense, but it is a bit predictable. A movie that makes every girl wish that she had a "perfect guy" in her life, but as all good things seem so right, most of the time, disaster is right around the corner.

Leah Vaughn (played by Sanaa Lathan) is a 36 year old lobbyist in L.A. Everything seemed to be in order until Leah decided to end things with her boyfriend, Dave (played by Morris Chestnut) after he tells her that he's not ready to get married and have children. After two months of being single, Leah meets a young man named Carter Duncan (played by Michael Early) and they hit it off right away. As time progresses, Carter continues to charm Leah and before she knows it, she believes that she has finally found the "perfect man" for herself. Little does she know, Carter is far from perfect.

During a night out, Lean and Carter are apart just for a few minutes before Carter spots another man talking to her and he becomes overly possessive. His possessiveness nearly lands the other guy in the hospital. As Leah witnesses this behavior from the man she thought so highly of, sh realizes that she wants nothing to do with him and she tries to end everything with him. Carter won't let her end the relationship and he ends up stalking her, which in turn leaves her scarred and seeking help from the police. After some unfortunate and very obsessive behavior, Leah is forced to place a restraining order against Carter, this angers him even more.

After some time, Leah ends up back with her ex. Carter isn't too thrilled with her choice and starts to sabotage her work and her relationships with others. He goes as far as to taking people's lives over his obsession with her. His actions cost Leah her happiness and before long, she is forced to take matters into her own hands. She decides to play into his games which later ends up paying off. As the movie comes to an end, Leah has finally won her battle with Carter, but in the entire process she has lost people she cared about.

This is a thrilling and an action filled movie with a predictable plot. A movie that will leave you at the edge of your seat with anticipation. I would rate this 4.5 out of 5 stars. I would recommend this movie to people who like thriller movies. This is a movie to remind you that there is no such thing as a "perfect guy".
