To be honest?, 13 July 2008

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

I liked it. Now, you must remember I am a huge Nicholas Lea fan so, I was sort of satisfied with his role. But, onto the movie. But, I will say: If you like Nicholas Lea...WATCH THIS MOVIE. You'll know why when you watch it. He's got a very "nice" scene at the gun range. *grins*

Okay, first I should just say is that I did enjoy it. And even if Nick wasn't in it, I still might have liked watching it. I'm not very critical with films. I just sit back and enjoy them. So, if you're like me...then you'll like the film.

If you are someone who takes film-making seriously. A real film-buff then you won't. There ARE some tiny holes in the plot. The characters aren't really all that likable. Nicholas Lea's character isn't defined at all. You know little things about him but you don't truly understand how Rebecca's character feels about him, I guess you could say. And then...he just kind of disappears.

And, also, they don't really explain what happens to Rebecca's character. She goes crazy then...is fine. It's like, "What?"

Anyway, like I said, if you (one) like Nicholas Lea and (two) just enjoy films then watch it. But, if you're a hardcore movie fan and take them seriously then STAY AWAY.

I give it a 6.
