Mixed Messages!!!, 22 January 2002

The confusing vibe I get from this film bothers me. Too many mixed messages, one of them being "Don't under estimate a woman!" Or something like that... Which gives the film a real feminist man hater approach... in my opinion! Many scenes that were meant to be funny and shocking came out embarrassing. Alyson Hannigan fans might find this interesting. The characters behave very strange, though it does get exciting when it desperately has to show a nude female in the opening shot!!!! Trite! Many elements puzzled me, starting with Hannigan's little number with the French woman on the bus bench. Scene's that were thought to be good scenes turned out to be nothing. Characters that you start to like and feel sorry for suddenly become the characters you are suppose to hate, and some characters disappear for great ammounts of time and suddenly re-appear. In my over all opinion, it just wasn't about anything (new) atleast... I give it *1/2 out of 4.
