फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
Follows similar story of 1981's Body Heat.
Could tell the director's decisions were aiming to have some sort of artistic value added but were questionable and fell short of the desired effect - odd transitions, meaningless scenes, forced music, and long scenes with dialogue that felt redundant failing to move the story forward.
Hard to root for or get attached to any of the characters - none of them felt real, all kind of forced stereotypes. Each of the main characters (Diane Kruger and Ray Nicholson) were equally mysterious, but didn't feel like any substance between them, just physical attraction. The dialogue and decisions they made felt more like a Hollywood creation than anything based on reality or logical thinking.
Side characters were pretty good. The boyfriend (Yousef Abu-Taleb) at the end stole the movie for me and felt like the only real character in entire story. Parole officer (Hank Azaria) was good, his intro scene playing the role of a no non-sense tough cop was over the top. The deputy (Fred Weller) was even more over the top, but felt more in-line with the spiteful, I am the law, kinda persona a cop on a power-trip gives off.
Entire time watching, felt like a different take on Body Heat. Want to again mention weird transitions - if the director.(Neil. LaBute) reads this, what are you doing??

Absolutely predictable, not one surprise, or novel idea from start to finish. You could call some of it foreshadowing, I suppose, but that would give the screenwriting far more credit than it deserves. Hard to believe that even one 'named' actor signed up to be part of this movie and the horribly obvious faux-plot that it pretends is worthy of your time, attention and electricity to suffer though. Do yourself a favor, and watch just about anything else you can, and skip this one.
This is probably obvious from the above, but I'd be horribly surprised if this didn't get nominated for multiple razzies. If not, the diner scene, and the "I can sit here all day with my **** down your throat" scene alone should get a writer a good, old-fashioned tarring and feathering.

No pun intended - Diane Kruger whom I (and I assume many others) had discovered in the movie Troy, has been in quite a lot of movies. I assume she tries to get better scripted stuff than this most of the time. But one has to pay the bills too - also the script may have sounded better than what came out of it - including all the cliches we get served .... you almost know from the get go what is what.
The main male character seems weird - and he has quite the character flaws. Also he changes attitude ... and intellect it seems. So I get the 4 rating ... what saves it a little for me: Hank Azaria ... the guy has fun to say the least! I actually would love to see a spin off with him playing that character! There is a way more interesting movie there ... and him being here and there (character wise) ... well I can take and dig that to a degree. He has the charisma to carry that though ... also be aware, while this is rated R, there is no real nudity in this. If this is one of the reasons you watch.. well thrillers like this one. Still it gets steamy from time to time - just don't lose your mind over it ... although you won't really care in the end ... twists and all that.

Boring, generic, and completely predictable. The plot is absolutely tedious. The screen cards telling you the time that passes between each scene are completely unnecessary. They become very annoying and cut the fluidity of the story consider they appear basically every two minutes making you lose interest. To be honest I'd rather watch paint dry and get more entertainments from it. Diane Kruger is one of the most boring and unerotic actresses in the industry. I've seen the Kardashians act out better emotions than this wannabe Hollywood actress. In a nutshell another forgettable performance on Kruger's part!
The end is made to shock us and reveal the absurdity of this kind of movies. But it is a bit forced and cringy. I felt nothing for any of the characters.

I cannot believe I just got sucked in and watched this entire movie. The main reason for its low rating is the acting. Krueger and Azaria were the only decent actors. I felt like I was watching a Nickelodeon teen soap. Well, with a little more spice and violence. The story itself wasn't too bad but it started spiraling near the end. The very ending was the WORST. Please...with all the creative people in Hollywood I am sure they can do a better job than this! The only thing this movie had going for it was the scenery. Looks like it takes place in the northeast and it's just gorgeous! That's the only way it got its 1 star.
