Heart of Stone

(2001) Heart of Stone PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER

It opens with a murder of a young girl with viewers unable to see the perpetrator's face. Then the movie flips to Marie (Angie Everhart) who appear to have some husband problems, since her husband is hardly intimate with her. So she hooks herself up with an attractive psychopath, Steve (James Wilder) who goes to the extremes of stalking her with a twist toward the end some viewers might be able to figure out way before the movie is over.

If viewers are able to figure out the ending before it even happens then it's a sign the movie is not worth watching.

Man I feel cheated. I watched this crap on Cable labeled as "College Girls Massacre" and because of my huge appetite for horror movies I decided to give it a try. Well, I watched another erotic thriller with lame death scenes but I have to admit it, decent sex scenes. Most of the death scenes are off screen and you can see little of the weapons of choice but it doesn't makes a difference because this movie is all about the SEXY blonde Angie Everheart. She is the best thing about the movie. I liked her cynical phrase with a sweet voice "last night was amazing but I have to go now". Well the that night she had it hard.

Oh well give it a try but only if it's on cable. Don't waste a single dollar on this.

I'm an Angie Everhart fan and I always watch her movies with an open mind. But this one is strange. Thanks to the plot holes, the film produces a lot of "How?" and "Why?" questions, which left unanswered at the end. I don't say the movie is not enjoyable, but it could have been much better, if the writer payed more attention to the details. But hey what do you expect? This is a typical low budget B movie and you should treat it as such.

My girl is mesmerizingly beautiful and her outfits are super sexy. Plus she drives a cool Mercedes SL. She plays the neglected wife's character nicely. Peter J. Lucas is Angie's husband, who's a busy doctor and he's often away from home. James Wilder is the handsome lad, who turns Angie's life upside down. These two guys are not too good, but the worst are the detectives. If the LAPD would employ such dumb officers, they wouldn't solve one crime in the city. The rest of the cast isn't too important. They are just there to fill up the time.

If you're an Angie fan and you didn't see this film so far, give it a try, but this is definitely not her best movie. Others simply avoid it or watch it with friends on a cold winter evening. You'll laugh a lot on this silliness.

Boring....boring...boring... The movie tries to impress with advanced technological stuff, and look like a woman version of Mission Imposible.

The actors play like children...Gal Gadot is struggling to look like a bada$$, with no success. She looks like she forgot she wasn't playing Wonder woman anymore...in some scenes she had identical body postures... The actors'lines are sometimes mechanical and predictable, that watching the moviw becomes painfull.

I made big efforts to watch this movie until its end, but ultimately, I made it...just didn't want to write a review based only on the first half... My honest advice: watch something else...

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.
