Slightly Overrated

Rating: 9/10 (4 January 2015)

I heard a lot of great things about this film but I just thought it was okay. The acting is great but by putting Neil Patrick Harris and Rosamund Pike before Tyler Perry in the opening credits, you kind of give it a way that you're going to be seeing a lot more of them later. I get that Fincher tried to make Neil Patrick Harris a red herring, but it doesn't work when he is too over the top that he's obviously not the villain. I haven't read the book so I don't know if it is a successful adaptation or not, but as a film I though it was enjoyable, even if it did lose focus around the second act. But like I said, it's a good film and you should definitely check it out if you haven't already
