How sad is this?
Absolutely the worst movie.
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Hexed is daft, but enjoyably so. It's clever in places too.Once you've figured out the idea behind each of the characters, the plot becomes fairly predictable. You don't mind that though, it's all good to watch and there aren't really any dull moments. It's not laugh out loud funny but that's OK too. The two lead characters have good chemistry and the supporting characters all contribute something. Claudia Christian is stunningly beautiful in the two black outfits we see her wearing :-)RIP Adrienne Shelly
This is one of those movies that never got the appreciation that it deserved. Most of the humor is very tongue-in-cheek, and it has some of the best lines and visuals of any comedy from the late 80's early 90's era. One of my favorite lines comes from Det. Ferguson (Full Metal Jacket's R. Lee Ermey) when he is questioning a witness and tells her that he has all the night to wait because "I'm divorced and have no charisma." This movie is chock full of satire and subtle jokes that you will probably not get until long after the movie is over or upon a second or third screening. Treat yourself to this movie if you want to see a light comedy with some very funny moments reminiscent of some of the great comedies of the 30's and 40's. (fans of this genre will hopefully understand my meaning after seeing this movie)
What's wrong with you people? Is everyone crazy? This movie is hilarious. At the time I voted, thisthing had a 4.4 which is way too low. It is not best picture and hasno best actors but among the genre of modern comedy (which ishorrible), I give this an 8. They should put this out on DVD tomorrow.
Maybe my expectations were too high -- but then again, all I wanted was a few laughs from a movie promising to be a send-up of all those Fatal Attraction-type thrillers. Claudia Christian and Arye Gross weren't bad, but the dialogue they were handed was just doltish, and the supporting cast was about as funny as a hearse -- what was with that ridiculous police sergeant? I just got the sense that everyone involved was either trying way too hard to make a lousy script funny, or (in the case of Norman Fell and the rest of the supporting cast) just marking time and waiting for their paychecks. 90 minutes, maybe half a dozen laughs. A waste of a great premise.
