Pecados Mortais

This film starts off OK. It has heather graham in it, so I wasn't expecting much besides nasty sex scenes and bulging eyes (of which you get both in this film). The fact that she is supposed to be some folksy singer-songwriter is laughable because I've met this character time and time again in the downtown art scene.

All of the dialogue, starting with Jeremy Sisto's entrance is laughable and obviously written by a man. If written by a woman, Hope (heather graham) would've reached for her pepper spray after Will's (Jeremy Sisto) initial pick up line.

The movie goes no where fast, has a small up lift with the black box theatre style of the dinner, then continues on a downward spiral. The cast is amazing, and I'm surprised that so many somewhat respectable actors would sign to such boring banal work.

The special features are a laugh and a half as more praise over Graham's beauty and perfection for the part is expressed. The producer says producer-like things like "many other actresses wanted this part but Heather was just perfect". Way to make it sound like Angelina, Charlize, and Drew all wanted to be part of this ishfest.

I'm glad I bought this for 3 dollars on Thanksgiving. I'll be thanks-giving this away on Ebay tomorrow.

There are so many other problems with this film including editing, music, and character development but the other REAL comments speak for themselves.

Jeremy Sisto...what happened?

Drug addiction is a real downer anyway, so when you have a bad movie with a drug addiction theme, things couldn't be much worse. Throw in some really lame characters as diner customers, and things do indeed get worse. Everyone in this film is either a pompous ass, or a down and out loser. Not exactly a formula for entertainment. In addition, the movie jumps around with annoying flashbacks. When Jeremy Sisto finally pulls a gun on his ex., Heather Graham, I was hoping something would happen to move things forward. Unfortunately, it does not, with relief only coming when the screen finally goes dark, and the credits roll. Oh boy! Is this bad! - MERK

Obviously some viewers have a personal vendetta about this film. It wont be for everyone but it definitely can be appreciated. Its better than 90% of the garbage we watch today. For those that said this movie has no point, or its boring and has no topic would be wrong. You should try just watching a film with an open mind rather than hating on it from the opening credits. This movie is what you make it and its not supposed to be black & white answers. If you had a brain you would understand this film very easily. Most of the characters are just simply symbols for something greater. Whether they exist or not is irrelevant because after all this is why we sit down in front of the TV in the first place, to watch something that isn't real! I think some people tend to forget that.

My brother and I watched the first 15 minutes of this movie and both decided it was boring and we were getting nothing out of the movie, yet we decided to give it a while longer to see if it got any better. 20 more minutes went by and still - nothing too interesting. The only relatively interesting scene was when Hope and her boyfriend hook up. Then about 5 minutes later she makes out with a girl on who's experiencing her first trip on ecstasy for about 5 more minutes. Then you basically find out after reading the reviews on here that the movie is not what you expected it to be. The back of the DVD package makes it sound like Hope is supposed to go crazy and have hallucinations and things of that nature, but it's really about drugs. She's battling an addiction of her boyfriend and her boyfriend's battling his own addiction with drugs. Overall, it's the biggest waste of time ever.

This is among the top three most terrible films I have ever witnessed. I kept waiting for it to have some kind of theme or point. There is absolutely none. Its not even worth my typing these words except for the idea that I might spare someone the curiosity. Don't be fooled, this movie doesn't have anything to do with the synopsis on the back. There's no manifestation of "the seven deadly sins", there is nothing remotely interesting in this movie. It never wraps itself up into a remotely understandable, sensible package. Its just drug use after abusive situation after drug use all twisted up in a largely boring cafe. Unless you're looking to see Heather Graham at her worst, don't see it.
