Sorry, this movie sucks

As Good As It Gets

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

One girl(A) gets mad at another girlB) for inviting a guy to their girls night..........20 seconds later the same girl(A) is about to stop the car to see how cute some random guy is. The ending was a bit silly. They may think that they got away with murder, but there is still a witness. If Holly ever breaks up with Ben, they're toast. Plus how fragile Mel is, she might just tell herself.

Three fairly unlikeable young women break into a house and are left in a difficult situation following an accident. This is all about moral quandaries but not particularly interesting ones due to the boring characters involved. There is little tension built up and due to the unsympathetic characters you really couldn't care less what happens to them. Although the bland dialogue doesn't help the acting is uniformly wooden from all concerned. This film is only just over an hour long but it seems longer. It's rare to find films with hardly any redeeming features but this is one of them. There is literally no excitement at all as it limps to a dull climax.A very poor film.

For a movie that starts out with having refreshingly realistic portrayals of young women (for a movie of this genre) it's almost painful to bear witness to the very conclusion of the film as it goes against those very portrayals.Put under pressure humans can be driven to go against their nature of course but the very end there simply was no need for it, just add a last minute twist for the sake of adding a last minute twist is just poor writing.But the road there is still enjoyable so I'll still give it a 6, even though the ending truly was pushing it.No complaints regarding the acting or script etc otherwise though.

Technically, my review does contain spoilers but the movie's conclusion will ruin any chance this movie had of being memorable. Having said that, I won't forget just how disappointing the conclusion was.Had such high hopes for this movie and had my suspicion that it was going to be similar to Identity (where there multiple personalities lead you to assume there are several characters involved), I would have been pleased, albeit omitting the suspenseful ending that particular movie provided. Yes, I would have worked out the ending within 15 minutes but I would've been happy with that.Sorry guys (and girls), but this movie's ending was like opening the Xmas gift from you (ex)boyfriend expecting Victoria's Secret sexy lingerie and instead, be gutted cos it8s a pack of Primark full brief knickers(in Size 12 when your a Size 8).Granted, the ending wasn't predictable, I'll say that much but only because I never envisaged it would be so darn rubbish.What was the point in one of the 3 main characters commenting on how the Scrabble board had followed them???? I honestly thought that was an ominous comment that meant it was going to be a great mind f*** movie like Triangle OR Identity. Boy was I wrong! The only actor that gets any credit for their performance is Holly's boyfriend, who was in the movie for just over 5 mins. And what was the point in that? He loves Holly but not enough to endure anything other than a "walk on- walk off" part. I would've been more entertained if there had been a "wax on- wax off" scene lasting the entire running time of the movie, with everyone polishing the numerous cars outside with Turtle Polish!!!! Do yourself a favour and play Scrabble instead of watching this movie. It'll be more entertaining!
