Me You Madness

It feels like the vanity project of a rich guy's wife. There's nothing at all relatable or interesting in it; you've seen the same things in better movies plenty of times. Even the rich people in Mr. & Mrs. Smith had the decency to play down their wealth, and that's a much better version of this.

The acting is atrocious; I never though Ed Westwick was that great on Gossip Girl but he made it work for the show. Here he's wooden and unfunny. And she... well there's a reason she had to make a movie in order to star in one. Oof.

Plus, how many more tributes to the 80s do we need? It was 40 years ago, let's move on already.

Watch Promising Young Woman instead. You'll still feel icky but at least you'll have had a better time getting there.

I sit here after just watching this film and feel I've definitely wasted the last hour and a half, I could've cleaned the house in that time. I wonder what Ed Westwick was thinking agreeing to be in this.

I had very low expectations based on the reviews, but I ended up actually finding it very entertaining and never had the urge to hit fast forward.

First of all, despite portraying a serial killer, it is not dark or scary at all. The movie does not take itself too seriously, with the main characters constantly breaking down the fourth wall at the right times. Acting is also much better than expected from a low budget black comedy.

Quirky? Sure. Cliches? Plenty. I'm not sure I would watch it again, but I would definitely recommend it when you have to kill 100 minutes at an airport or on a train.

The reviewers who've said this is an obvious self-flagellating, movie-referencing, over-the-top, wannabe-clever movie is right. The people who've said this has an awesome soundtrack and some fun moments are right, too.

There are bits and pieces that are absolutely god awful. I, personally, couldn't stand the constant narration or the fact that what she's saying is literally what she's doing on screen. So much of it came across as someone reading a book over the movie and it's constant. There's also an eight and a half minute exposition dump at the very beginning.

The main character is an evil Mary Sue, super rich, loves showing it off and bragging. The only time I enjoyed her at all were the scenes between her and the male lead, and even then it was only sometimes. A lot of their dialogue was nothing more than quickly spoken sentences and repeated phrases for a solid couple of minutes because that obviously equals comedy!

On the other side, it does have moments of actual fun, but they're few and far between. So, yeah, both sides are right, hence the middle-ground rating. I didn't mind it too much.

Absolutely awful rip off of American Psycho. Could have succeeded as a different gender perspective. But wanders off to nowhere land of bad dancing extravaganzas.
