ThiefHott Too much of everything
PodBill Just what I expected
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
jamesharringtondes I had to check, this is the same Joan Allen as was in Bourne movies ? Goes to show: early beauty is no guarantee of later life attractiveness. Most of cast is uninspiring, movie plods like most formula movies, no one stands out as in the 'now' Cliché lines and droll setting; don't waste more than 30mins, clicker is your salvation.
raisleygordon Yesterday, I watched the Keanu Reeves film "Knock, Knock", and while I liked its second act a lot more, the same can't be said of "A Good Marriage". Is this supposed to be some psychological drama? Intentional or not, I'd say it is psychological, because this film only explains (albeit briefly) the guy is a serial killer, and never shows him actually committing such horrific acts. The only time Bob gets violent is in Darcy's imagination. And Darcy does manage to throw him down the stairs. Sorry, but unfortunately that's all the violence we're treated to. If this film had resembled anything like an actual movie about a Serial Killer, then the fact that it doesn't feel like Stephen King might not matter so much.**1/2 out of ****
Ashashhh This movie is a nice movie. Id probably recommend it. It is not very actiony nor is it very suspenseful. This movie is a slow thriller so if you have to have loud screaming or blood everywhere with a lot of suspense at every corner this is not it. This film does not leave you guessing, things are just out in the open and you know right away almost who is doing the awful things and everything. Also one of the main characters just simply puts everything out on the open so.. A lot of the big scenes that are the most suspenseful for this film are sorta in the trailer too. The rest of the film is mostly just like "uh oh what's one of the main characters gonna do?!" And that's okay. So I guess I would say it is a different type of thrill movie since most are not like this. It is not psychological or super fast action filled so don't expect that. I think maybe if you're a more mature person who can sit through A movie like this then great maybe this will be a nice simple thriller for you to see as it was for me. It's not really like other Stephen king films but it's different so. Give it a try.
Wizard-8 I was attracted to this movie after finding out not only was it based on a Stephen King story, but that Stephen King himself adapted the screenplay. It has a very interesting premise, and some of the promise of the premise is delivered. For one thing, the characters are somewhat smarter than you usually get in a movie like this... but also act somewhat realistically. Some have criticized the Joan Allen character for not acting right away after finding out her husband's secret, but I think most people in her situation would at first find it hard to do ANYTHING. It's interesting to watch this character (and her husband), because it's not telegraphed what any of them will do. Kudos also to the filmmakers for making the movie look pretty good on what was a pretty low budget. However, I will admit that the movie has one significant flaw. As I said in my summary line, the movie is VERY slow at times and is definitely drawn out to near the breaking point. I can understand why some viewers would dislike the movie for those reasons, and I would also admit that if the movie had been cut down by fifteen to twenty minutes, it would run a lot smoother. But I was in a patient mood when I sat down to watch the movie, so I was able to tolerate those slow moments. While the movie IS flawed, I think that those who have seen a wide range and amount of movies (like myself) will see that despite what some IMDb users are saying, the movie is far from the worst movie ever made... and far from the worst Stephen King adaptation ever made. Give it a chance on a slow night.
