What is a Mystery is This Movie's High Rating

Rating: 3/10 (6 October 2014)

With all due respect, I have come to the conclusion that I really disliked this movie. When I got home from the theater, people asked me and I said, "It was pretty good", but the more I thought about the more ridiculous things kept coming to mind. The stereotypes of the cunning women was unwelcome. Amy's sudden turn to violence was absurd. Prior to slashing Doogie Howser all she'd been guilty of was fraud. How do you go from fraud to cold-blooded (and very bloody) first-degree murder without batting an eye? Also, all the cops were skinny dudes with ordinary haircuts. Been up close to a police force any time in the past 30 years? They're all skinhead bullies nowadays, not clean-cut gee-whiz do-gooders like in this movie. And then Nick wordlessly ends up staying with Amy? Just awful. The only mystery here is why people thought this was any good.
