It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
This is your basic psycho beotch movie. I wouldn't be surprised if its been shown on Lifetime before. Bridgette Wilson does a good job portraying a conniving psycho. There some sexy scenes with her, in a bra, or swimsuit, but no nudity. Overall, the movie kind of lags and is not paced well. Most scenes without Bridgette are boring. Some of the other actors performances are lacking. It has potential,the basic story or "premise" is good but could of been developed more. "The Hand that Rocks the Cradle" is a better movie, due to a better script and better performances. Even "Poison Ivy" was better IMO, but this is worth it for Bridgette fans. Another gripe, is there are no cast interviews or commentaries. Also on my stock TV speakers, it seemed like the music was mixed too loud and sometimes drowned out the actors voices.
This film was OK but at times it got a bit crap the movies about how a married couple can not have children of there own so they get a surrogate mother to have the child for them.The movie stars actors like Seiko Matsuda,Bridgette Wilson,Scott Cohen,Claudette Nevins and Peter Boyle from the funny TV show Everybody Loves Raymond.The acting is OK in this movie and the story line is good and there are some good violent scenes in this movie like when Peter Boyle got beaten to death and the end scene in the movie.This film is a must see for fans of the Thriller genre or anyone looking for a OK movie and over all this film was OK and my rating is 5 out of 10.
Bridgette Wilson is the only draw for this film. It was fun watching Billy Madison's sweet 3rd Grade teacher portray a demented surrogate mother. She far outshines Rebecca DeMornay in the similar Hand That Rocks the Cradle.A wealthy young couple, played by Scott Cohen and the talentless Seiko Matsuda(what producer is she related to?), can't have a child of their own, so in enters Bridgette Wilson who becomes their surrogate mother.Bridgette adds such raw deviant emotion to this role which makes it worthy to see alone. I had no idea she was capable of portraying such a violent evil woman, but she pulls it off brilliantly.Peter Boyle fans, don't bother, as he wasn't used much. This is basically for Bridgette Wilson fans, who want to see a darker side to Billy Madison's item of lust.
Don't be fooled and don't waste your time. This movie was SOOO bad that I don't even want to waste time writing about it. This is only a warning to others not to see it unless you enjoy bad writing, blood and a full-on loony as the main character. Peter Boyle and Scott Cohen are too fine of actors to put their energies into such a pathetic film. What were they thinking?
