Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Topaz1922 Surprisingly, this movie was entertaining! It is a little slow in the beginning but as the movie progresses, it keeps your attention.The movie has many twists that will at some point have you thinking you know who the killer is and then all of sudden, you think it's another tenant when all along it was the least suspecting one.The movie lacks some directorial flaws and a few common sense errors when eluding a killer but aside from these minor details, the movie was suspenseful.I didn't give it a 10 because I didn't like the direction the the director chose to go with th ending. However, I would recommend you see it.
jeffronthi Pros: We get a chance to see early Jennifer Carpenter at work, and it is very interesting to say the least. This movie is worth it for that reason alone. The actual script had potential, as far as the storyline goes, but no budget to speak of I imagine.Cons: Everything else. Oh, it's Judd Nelson alright, but it ain't vintage...I whole heartedly recommend this for Jennifer Carpenter, she has some serious chops. She's kinda hot in this movie, too, depending on what character she is playing.Get it, you have nothing better to do.
MagicStarfire I gave this 5 stars out of 10.I thought it was an interesting thriller, parts of it were a bit different - although it does have the old cliché of the bad twin and the good twin.However, there are some unusual characters in this film that revolves around a group of people living in a rent controlled apartment building.We have the nervous old lady, played by Michael Learned (of The Waltons), who is constantly knocking on the other tenants' doors trying, to little avail, to get them to turn down their music and that sort of thing.We have the three young male roommates, who are wasting their lives away living in squalor, doing drugs, and doing any girl they can get their hands on.We have Hector, a trans-gendered person, and his friend in another apartment - Sara - who is living with her mentally disturbed twin sister, Tess.The landlord of this apartment building gets offed early in the film and the building is then purchased by a middle-aged black man and his young, attractive daughter, Amanda, who would prefer this not remain a rent controlled building.Shortly after the new landlords arrive, tenants start turning up dead.Just who is offing the tenants? That's the question in this film. Are Amanda and her father guilty? And just what is going on with the mysterious Dr. Shep (played by Judd Nelson,) who suddenly moves into the building, and seems a little more interested than he should be in Tess and Sara.While there are some questionable actions on the part of some of the characters - such as one being chased by a killer and instead of running out the door and seeking help, runs past the front door and down into the creepy basement - but over all - this isn't a bad movie to spend your time watching.I found it entertaining and well paced. It held my interest throughout.
rts718 This movie was supposed to be a thriller, but it turned out to be a silly comedy, and I am being kind when I say this. Judd Nelson is an excellent actor, but in this movie he has a consistent blank stare on his face. This in itself was funny. I was surprised to see actress Michael Lerned, who played the mother on the television series 'The Waltons.' I don't know if it was the make-up job or what, but she looked terribly older looking than from when I remembered her in the 70's. The direction was poor, photography was slightly better, and the acting was passable(except for Michael Lerned who played her role brilliantly).It did not take a rocket scientist to find out who was doing the 'evicting' of the tenants in this run down apartment dwelling. Just give it 30 minutes and you will know. This movie is just another slasher movie without any teenagers in it.I'm sorry everyone, but this movie was just plain lousy. Judd Nelson and Michael Lerned's talents were wasted in this one, and I'm surprised they even agreed to do this movie. Evict this movie please...lol Richie, Bronx, New York
