The Housekeeper

Where to begin.

I give credit to anyone that can write, direct and get a movie produced.

So that is the credit I give this film.

It is lifeless at the best of times.

Not sure if they didn't have a proper sound tec for Denise Richards, but most of her scenes seem to be over dubbed. Many scenes are our overdubbed, but it was most noticeable for Denise Richards. And well we don't need to go into her performance. I'm going to guess they got what they paid for. The shining light is that Ilean Almaguer is a very good actor. She even made the poor writing workable. If you're looking for a cheesy 90s thriller, you're not even going to find that here. The jump scares don't make you jump. If you can make it to the end good for you. I was always hoping for something by the end to redeem it, but it didn't happen. I would guess a lot was lost on the cutting room floor between William and Sandra to show how their relationship grew into a friendship.

The movie over all was poor, but Ilean Almaguer do a great job.

Wow.. what a waste of time. There's not much in the way of character build up. The acting isn't believable and the storyline is very weak. I have watched many Tubi originals and this one was the worst. How anyone could have rated this a 10 makes me wonder.. did they watch a different movie or were they paid to post a positive review? Or maybe they were one of the cast members. If I was one of the cast members I would be embarrassed to say I was in this movie. I think that Tubi should scrap this movie and pretend it was never made.

I wasted my time, hopefully this review will keep you from wasting your time.

If you waste your time watching this movie after reading the reviews, its your own fault. First, the movie is so dark in many scenes you cant see what is going on. I hate that. I have no clue why so many movies are made like this. You wait and wait for something to start giving a storyline and it does not happen. The movie drags and drags and drags and is very predictable. Denise Richards acting is horrible like another poster stated. I cant believe I wasted my time waiting for something to happen and make me like this movie. Nope, just another attempt at an overrated horror movie along with so many others.

I love a good thriller, something that keeps you on edge and makes you feel something inside. I definitely felt that with this film especially when the gears get going and they get going at a good pace.

The deal with the housemaids and the Ash family and their secrets while they run for office and how it all ties together is an intriguing one, that once it all culminates to the surprise at the end it leaves you feeling sick (in a good way)

The ending left me wanting more and I mean that in a good way, it definitely has a satisfying enough conclusion but boy do you want more from these characters, it left me feeling gutted.

I loved seeing Denise Richards and Ilean Almaguer is a fantastic star I wasn't familiar with but would like to see more of her.

Overall go watch, perfect for thriller lovers and people wanting to get introduced to the genre.

Can't wait to see more from Stuart Altman who is director of this picture.

Tubi has some interesting titles. This one was interesting.

It kept me wanting to know what was going to happen.

The ending was ok and strange but I liked the film overall for it's atmosphere. It was like a throwback 90s thriller, so it was a sort of tongue and cheek wink and nod at that old genre.

The acting was pretty good. Ilean Almaguer was the best.

Of course Denise Richards was good as well. It's nice to see her in more movies. I hope we see more of her.

Overall, it was an interesting, weird, throwback film, that wasn't perfect but I enjoyed it for what it was. I liked how it was a sort of throwback vibe to the old thrillers. Thumbs up.
