What a load of hokum

Rating: 1/10 (30 May 2009)

I'm going to tread what for some reason seems to be a lonely experience with this film and tell that it's the biggest load of hokum I've seen for a long time. It's so bad if I hadn't been with someone else who wanted to watch it I would have walked out - something I haven't done for a while.
OK - the story has promise, but it's the endless use of the same tired old movie clichés and techniques to create any suspense. Yes, I'm talking underground car parks (do small bank branches have underground car parks? And even if it was a shopping mall, when she leaves work how come there are only half a dozen cars left in this place?). A big swollen lip one minute and then one minute later in the film (later that night in movie-time) she looks perfect and giving full on frenchies with her fella. And what the hell happened to the goat?
As for the twist...well you'll only miss the signposts to what's going to happen if you're completely dumb or asleep, which there is a reasonable chance of.
All in all, I wish I been dragged down to see Hannah Montana instead. It couldn't possibly be less entertaining than this drivel.
