Watch While She Was Out For Free

Just perfect...

Don't Believe the Hype

Absolutely brilliant

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The performances are great, the story is what is the problem. While She Was Out is unwatchable from the moment of the first kill of one of the thugs. There isn't much to this Flick except people being killed one after the other and that's pretty much it.Viewing this film the first time will have you scared for "Della" played by Kim Basinger, but as the movie goes on - you realise that they messed with the wrong b*tch.It is good to finally see that "Della" is no longer scared of her abusive husband by the end of the movie, and we see that her kids are what keeps her literally fighting for her life, that picture that one of the kids drew early on in the movie is very important to the story, we see that she looks at it at some point while trying to hide from the punks and that picture enforces her to stay alive by any means.I read some of the reviews and some people just don't get it, the scene where she tries to seduce the punk "Chucky" was clearly a ruse as she has a plan for his death, we see that when she is literally on top of him - she tries, nearly fails, but successfully kills him, there is no way she would be able to do that had she not pretended to let her guard down, "Della" was not a stupid woman, she knew that "Chucky" was talking crap about running away together, his plan was to kill her in revenge for his little buddies, and he was going to kill her anyway due to what he did to the security guard pre-car chase.The Film Score composed by Paul Haslinger is fantastic, it has that thriller/creepy vibe and i never get tired of listening to it on my Spotify playlist. Skip the movie and check out the film score instead.

The title of the movie really makes you expect something interesting and mysterious, but what you get is just incredibly hilarious. Everything is so exaggerated and taken to ridiculous unreal measures. Della seams to be really thick in the safety department. Because we all go to an abandon place where no one can see us or call for help when 4 people are chasing us. right? The plot is just ridiculous. Running around with the red tool box through the woods while they try to find her and slipping on rocks and banging the damn tool box, making noise, and the thugs going "there she is!". So funny. Then what comes next is just plain ridiculous. If you want to laugh at failure watch this movie. It's been years since I saw this movie and I still remember it. I was laughing about it for a month since I saw it with my friends. I would definitely watch it again.

Della (a still youthful Kim Basinger) is a downtrodden home-maker with young children and a domineering husband. She ducks out to the mall on Christmas Eve to buy some wrapping paper. Unable to find a parking space she leaves a stern note on the windscreen of an inconsiderate driver who has occupied two spaces.When she leaves the mall the parking lot is empty except for the car she had left the note on. It turns out to be a group of thugs looking for trouble. They shoot a security guard who intervenes and Della speeds off; pursued by the gang of thugs who want to get rid of the witness.She crashes her car and hides, grabbing a red toolbox. As the gang chase her through building sites and forest she knocks them off one-by-one with different tools from the red toolbox.The surviving gang members get spooked, deciding that she had a taste for blood.This was a strange movie but in a wonderful way; Kim Basinger is like a deer caught in the headlights but wants to survive for her children, and she gets better and better at dispatching the gang members.When she gets home she is no longer scared of her nasty husband and the ending leaves it pretty clear that he is dead meat.This movie is very entertaining, and Kim Basinger is wonderful as the meek and mild housewife who becomes a ruthless killer.If you get the chance to, see it!

This movie is good for watching while folding the laundry or doing some other mind-numbing monotonous task.Other reviewers have pointed out lapses in logic which I won't repeat here ... except the part that really gets me is ... why does the barista/cashier write "Dela"'s name on the cup if she hands it right to her? Things like this drive me crazy. Though obviously this detail was pivotal to the plot line of DelLa becoming increasingly irritated to the point at which she becomes a raving homicidal maniac.I did enjoy the various dispatchings of the ethnically diverse gang members via the Magic Red Toolbox. Would've been better if they were even bloodier! And I kind of feel disgusted at myself for thinking that the quasi-sex scene at the end was HOTTTTTTTTT. Poor Chuckie! Ending scene was pretty rad though predictable. This movie probably should have stayed as a story, short and sweetly bloody.Among "bad" horror movies (which deserve their own rating system), I'd rate this a 4/10. Among all films ever made, bad-mediocre-good, I'd rate this a 2/10.
