Uma Secretária de Morte

This is a quirky and enjoyable enough movie, but entirely forgettable.

Leslie Bibb, inspired by her Guardian angel, Saint George bumps off a collection of her colleagues in various inspired "accidents". She seems to become increasingly creative and eager with her exploits as the film gallops along. Also, where did her super strength come from, Supergirl has nothing on her, slinging dead bodies around like paper mache. Hilarious.

I loved Barry Bostwick as the priest and other supporting characters were also great.

She gets her just deserts in the end, just as she's about to swan off into the sunset. A pity in a' way.

A very good looking movie that has a fluffy charm, considering its subject matter, that keeps it from becoming a real "black" comedy. It is more like a throwback to an earlier time of whimsical romps with a touch of more cynical modern sensibilities.

The casting is dead-on and the Miss Nobody is cute as punch and the actress does a great job in this entertaining and fun story. There is a nice twist and the only weakness is the ending that could be much more in tune with the style that preceded.

The film is a successful attempt and it is not very witty or deep, but can be enjoyed as a better than average entry into the now in vogue Premium Cable quirkiness that is always fun in its inoffensive and a bit edgy satire.

frankly i am unfamiliar with the actors in this richly produced 'murder to laugh at' comedy. the laughs are deliciously off color and the (for me) unexpected twist in the plot had me wanting to watch the whole movie again right away!

a full cast of wacky and maybe a bit sick characters walk through this story and will keep you wondering 'who's next?' and what will our lead character do with them.

this movie is sweetly bitter and in that is the charm to a good one and one half hours of fun entertainment. this might not be the type of comedy some people find funny but then, they don't know what they are missing!

ps - the mother is my favorite character!

Leslie Bibb gives a wonderful performance in the lead combining a naive outlook with her own personal justification that carries the film. Everything works here, and all in all, this is a fun (and surprisingly non-violent) murderous trip into the corporate world that could well be a sleeper hit like Office Space was - it is a good little film, with loads of character actors that you'll recognize, a strong romance, and suspense, and is, all in all, a wry take on corporate life.

As a massive plus, it is beautifully shot, the use of grading and filters is superb and adds much. Throughout the film the color grading and shots are really really nice and the overall sense that this was lovingly made shines through.

Miss Nobody is one my favorite comedies about work since Office Space. Though much more like Amelie than an out and out satire, this tale of the secretary who almost innocently murders her way to the top of the corporate ladder is actually engaging and fun.

This film reminded me immediately of one of my favorite films - Amélie. It is delivered in the same quirky, cartoon-like style but without the mesmerizing charm and flowing story line. The acting by Leslie Bibb was fantastic and she did a wonderful job with what she was given. Everyone in the cast was outstanding and acted their hearts out. I can easily see why they all won awards for their performances in Boston. The main problem I found with this movie was that after the first half hour it was so repetitive and predictable, I found myself looking at my watch every 5 minutes. That being said, I appreciated the director's (Tim Cox) dedication to the style of Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amélie), as I imagine that these kind of films are much more difficult to direct and produce than a straight forward, dark comedy. I was relieved when it all came to an end.
