Annoying Bland Comical, 30 January 2009
Author: (kpkaarthik@gmail.com) de United States

Bland is the right word to describe this movie. Absolutely nothing interesting, nothing new and a cruelly stupid plot.

Eliza Dushku is pretty but that is all she is. In most parts of the movie she walks and talks like a zombie. Not sure if that is how delusional people would behave, but her performance looks comical. And since the whole movie circles around her, she single handedly manages to bring the entire movie down.

I really hope to see her cast in a better and more suitable role.

This is one such movie where everything looks bad, right from the acting, music, script, dialog, plot – everything.

I was shaking my head and hoping to see the movie end at some point.

Stay away from this one – unless you want to totally waste your time.
