Wordiezett So much average
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.
disdressed12 I really enjoyed this little gem.it's a departure for Katie Holmes and she is more than up to the challenge.she is utterly convincing in her role of mild mannered teacher/vigilante.you could really sympathise with her character even if you feel you shouldn't.but she also has a lot to work with.the acting of her co stars is very good here.and I thought the writing was very good especially the dialogue.i also liked the look of the film,the use of colour.i found the film to be unpredictable and I didn't see the end(as subtle as it was) coming at all.when you add it all up,it's a very well done film.i give Miss Meadow an 8/10
LeonLouisRicci Near Perfect and Consistently and Brilliantly Toned Female Fantasy. A Tragic Childhood Tale of the Storybook Variety. A Modern Day Take with Off-Beat Style that Chooses its Words Cleverly, Succinct, Funny, and to the Point.Katie Holmes is a Wonderfully Bent Schizophrenic Vigilante, a Jekyll and Hyde Character with Hyde's Monster Motivated by Justice.Never Residing in Real-Life there are not so Subtle Hints that none of this is Happening in what could be Conceived as anything but an Expressionistic, Exaggerated Existence. Surrealism. Even when the Titular Character meets Her Love Interest (James Badge Dale) the Local Law Enforcement, They address each other as Miss Meadows and Sheriff til the Very End. The Entire Beautifully Rendered Movie is Goofy like that and what makes "Miss Meadows" a Sleeper that is Destined for Cult Status is its Bona Fides with much More Going for it than just a "Girls With Guns" Appeal.Writer/Director Karen Leigh Hopkins has Crafted a Decidedly Female Rant with Feminine Machismo Charm.
leonblackwood Review: I'm really not sure what the moral behind this story was! It's about a lady called Miss Meadows (Katie Holmes), who lives the perfect life as a substitute teacher at an elementary school and spends most of her time caring for her garden. When she is out of "perfect neighbour" mode, she battles against the criminals in her town, with her gun in her pocket book and a vigilante attitude. She then falls for the local sheriff who tries to dig deeper into Meadows shady past but he keeps on getting shut down. Whilst investigating the mysterious murders in his town, he realises that all of the evidence is pointing to his, now pregnant loved one so he seeks for the truth while they are planning there wedding. With more criminals moving into her neighbourhood, Miss Meadows still seeks for justice but she eventually meets her match which puts her life in danger. The storyline was a bit weird and to be honest, I just found the whole thing annoying after a while. The main character, Miss Meadows, was the most annoying thing about the film and the far fetched plot just made things worse. Her constant one liners like too-da-loo, we're also annoying after a while and I didn't know if to laugh or to take the movie seriously. From an entertainment point of view, it was a big let down but you can't fault it for originality. The performances were more weird than good and I'm struggling to understand what the director was trying to achieve with this project. Weird and not that great!Round-Up: Katie Holmes, 36, is mostly known for her marriage to Tom Cruise, than her actual acting. After filing for divorce in 2012, she has only had brief appearances in Woman In Gold and the Giver and this film really didn't do well at the box office. Before that, she had a promising career after starring in Batman Begins, Phone Booth and the awful Jack and Jill but everything went downhill after her marriage failed. She has a major role in the Kennedy TV series, which seems to be quite popular so there might be some light at the end of the tunnel. This is the first major movie from, writer and director Karen Leigh Hopkins and I personally think that you can tell. The script was sketchy and the whole project just wasn't put together that well. Budget: $3million Worldwide Gross: N/AI recommend this movie to people who are into their drama/thrillers about a woman who is a school teacher by day and a vigilante killer whose seeking for justice on the side. 2/10
pakdoc Miss Meadows defines the limits of her reality early then reveals throughout how she actively avoids being a victim as passive life events expose themselves. From the emotions reflected in her sock choices to tireless maintenance of white garments, the frutility of living in the walls Miss Meadows' confines herself within, she interacts in society through locked doors and open windows. I was uncomfortable with the anti-Catholiic scenes as most know Katie Holmes' past Scientology affiliation makes you wonder if there is a specific agenda being propagated. This is a movie to watch on a quiet morning, without too many expectations.
