The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Near Perfect and Consistently and Brilliantly Toned Female Fantasy. A Tragic Childhood Tale of the Storybook Variety. A Modern Day Take with Off-Beat Style that Chooses its Words Cleverly, Succinct, Funny, and to the Point.Katie Holmes is a Wonderfully Bent Schizophrenic Vigilante, a Jekyll and Hyde Character with Hyde's Monster Motivated by Justice.Never Residing in Real-Life there are not so Subtle Hints that none of this is Happening in what could be Conceived as anything but an Expressionistic, Exaggerated Existence. Surrealism. Even when the Titular Character meets Her Love Interest (James Badge Dale) the Local Law Enforcement, They address each other as Miss Meadows and Sheriff til the Very End. The Entire Beautifully Rendered Movie is Goofy like that and what makes "Miss Meadows" a Sleeper that is Destined for Cult Status is its Bona Fides with much More Going for it than just a "Girls With Guns" Appeal.Writer/Director Karen Leigh Hopkins has Crafted a Decidedly Female Rant with Feminine Machismo Charm.

What a movie. I watched it without knowing what to expect; the only propaganda I got from it was the cover, I didn't even read or check for synopsis or trailer. A creepy joy ride with lots of not knowing what to expect perhaps not intensely but still. if I had to choose as film only I'd return to this one before bad teacher any day. For me there was no sense of build up to tragedy, just more along the lines of anticipation for revealed layers as the story went.Not a big fan of crime movies even though I like a lot of them. This one brought an element to it that makes it stand alone, my title of review aside. Did not expect Katie Holmes to do a good job like this.

i've never reviewed a movie on IMDb before. i review them on my facebook page when i feel the urge, but i'm supremely unqualified to do so. although what the qualifications would be, i don't exactly know.first, let me say that black comedy is a category which seems to impact me and stick to me longer than nearly any other genre. and i'm a sucker for the unreliable narrator as well and they usually go hand-in-hand.when i say this movie was brilliant, i have no proof of it, no one single detail which would qualify it, but i do know it held me enthralled from beginning to end. and yes, there were a couple of rough patches where i thought the script sort of wandered off track, but then, i didn't write it, so it might well have been exactly what they intended and that one scene or two or an exchange of dialogue just didn't resonate with me.i completely understand this genre is not for everyone and the comedy goes right over the heads of many people--too many things seem to do so these days.i apologize for the wandering 'review', but i just think it deserves 2-3 stars more than the IMDb is showing as the average. don't let the slightly low rating keep you from watching it./guy

Well, "Miss Meadows" one night, "Everly" the next, followed by "Spring" the third. Why can't the girls just get along with people? "Miss Meadows", well portrayed, and humorously so, by Katie Holmes, is straight out of (no, not Compton) that old school, sweet mannered, elementary school teacher mode. Except! She's got some issues and a pistol in her purse. She's a staunch believer in exacting justice where necessary, but the little darlings/munchkins love her so she can't be all bad. Props, sets, locations, acting all good. A bit of a hyperbolic parody on all those Miss Manners types. Flash backs will start to explain her past and will be clearer by the end of the movie, but has she changed? No subtitles, but Katie Holmes dances (sort of) and sings "These Boots are Made for Walking". Also, an unusual connection to the Polly Klaas event.
