Pretty Good
Fantastic!
Absolutely brilliant
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
In 'Kill For Me' there isn't anything too new, that hasn't been seen before. Yet, it's presented well enough and done just right for that not to matter.Talking about the film would be giving too much away about the plot. It basically revolves around two women with - very - troubling men in their lives. Take a guess as to how they decide to deal with them? One of the film's strengths is its length - it's quite short. That isn't a negative, it actually helps - everything is neatly tied up leaving no loose ends within the film and therefore hopefully not letting the audience feel cheated. All the characters are believable and acted well in their respective roles - the men are suitably horrible and the women... well, you'll just have to see what they're like! If you like a good murder story with plenty of fiendish plotting, give this one a go - it probably won't be remembered as a classic in twenty years time, but fans of the genre should enjoy it anyway.http://thewrongtreemoviereviews.blogspot.co.uk/
A girl goes missing. Her roommates seek someone else to use her room. Country girl Hayley arrives to rent the room. Amanda who works with a famous attorney, notices that Hayley's back is bruised and covered in scars. Amanda has a nice guy friend and some creepy ex who won't leave her alone, but Hayley steps in to protect her from him and also starts making out with Amanda.One day the ex catches Amanda alone in the house, he has a gun and becomes pushy. Hayley arrives and gets tossed around a bit. When the guy decides to leave, she buries an ax in his skull. Hayley suggests they bury the body, since Amanda's prints are also on the ax. They go ahead and bury the body on Hayley's dad's ranch.Now that Hayley has killed for Amanda, she suggests Amanda return the favor. She wants to get rid of her dad, who according to her, killed her mom and abused her- hence the scars. It's a convoluted plan that involves Amanda seducing him, replacing his drink with antifreeze, and printing a suicide note. At first reluctant she agrees, until he tells her a very different story. But there is another twist.Kill for Me is yet another entry in the popular 'evil men- poor victim women who then take revenge' genre, written by...men. It's a well done movie, it's interesting, a tad too slow at times. It lacks a sense of dread, tension. The relationship between the two is interesting as long as there's some sexual tension. But as usual the movie relies on characters being dumb. Amanda consults with the lawyer but never tells her exactly what is going on. Hayley's dad is perhaps the most interesting character- a mellow and likable guy overall. The movie succeeds at leading the viewer around the nose for a while and you think that this is one of those movies with a villain in god mode who has everything planned ahead. Overall the story is good although it is not entirely clear that it works, if you actually think about all the details, and the movie could have used more excitement.
It is a wonder how a film or book can be boring and interesting at the same time but it happens. This is an example. Yes the story line was interesting and on a side note Katie Cassidy (a legit scream queen-Black X-mas, When a stranger calls, A nightmare on Elm st.) loses her normally blonde locks for a much more natural look that I dug very much. I felt this film had a good story but was painfully boring most of the time.I felt the actresses more often than not were one note and dull. The actor who plays the obsessed boyfriend was an over-actor. The direction was fine but the pace and the soundtrack was just not up to par. However i did like the twists and the bit of mystery towards the end but I wouldn't watch it again and that's saying a lot for me because when i even sort of like a film I'll see it at least twice.It wasn't original really and at times reminded me of a wannabe Single White female or The roommate only not as good as either.
This movie definitely isn't below a score of 5.I have watched a lot of movies, some with a score of nine and some with a score of 2. The movie runs together well, and its enough to keep me engaged. As far as its plot, there is suspense and there is twists, not greatly memorable, but this move doesn't deserve a 9 either.I rated it between a 6 and a 7. Most 5's I find it hard to reach the end of.Within the first 10 minutes, i realized it didn't have the hallmarks of a great movie(Usually with a score of 9). Which was strange as i saw a score of 9 online originally. After watching the movie and again checking online, I saw a score of 5.7. I noticed a lot of people gave it a 1/10. Its odd to see so many give it a 10 and so many give it a 1.(The 10's were probably from the crew involved in the movie upon its release and the 1's were probably an equal and opposite response by the public in defiance of its clearly exaggerated 10). The movie sits above the halfway of the two scores but not too high. I would recommend watching.
