Really? 6.0 on IMDb? There is a new serial killer in town and a housewife gets in trouble with her unplanned extramarital affair. The plot thickens, those things intertwine, we see some nice boobies, justice is served in the end, blah, blah, blah...
Despite this it could still be at least a semi-decent film.
But it isn't.
This film is a real insult to an intelligent viewer. The whole plot is idiotic, the so-planned twists are not only foreseeable but totally unlikely as well. Most of the acting is pretty darn wooden, the only exception being those of Everheart's and Wilder's. The audio is terrible, luckily on the DVD there was a very clear foreign language dubbing available so choosing that I understood more. Interestingly the score was quite decent, maybe the best of all departments. Lame, lame cops; lame storytelling, lame victim behavior (doing _nothing_ of what you should do), lame everything.
So many idiotic moments that if you have seen at least 30 thrillers/suspense movies in your life and if you have an IQ above 100 and at least some expectations for a movie to deliver, than you will be scratching and shaking your head so many times that it won't even make a good enough, forgettable popcorn movie.
It's not the worst film of the world, maybe it was the worst of 2001. What makes it more unbearable for me that even with a 2 million dollar budget and the score it has, and also the two main character's acting it could have been a decent, a real 6 or 7 film given a better screenplay.
All in all I give it 3 for the score and for Angie's and Wilder's role. Oh, and for the boobies. If you have nothing better to watch this might fill the void but if you do have expectations it will upset you more than entertain.
