Una visita inesperada

I agree with you, Jesse's performance was truly the highlight of the movie; he brought an intensity that elevated the entire story. However, the plot made me reflect on how no man should ever get involved with a single mother or a divorced woman, let alone bring her past into his life or home. Furthermore, it's important to remember: don't get involved with women who already have children from other men. These complicated situations only bring problems and disrespect the value a man should hold for himself. The movie was great in many aspects, but it serves as a reminder about the choices we make in real life.

Right from the jump from basically you knew what was going on I'm actually being generous with the rating because I never heard of the Dude Kevin Interdonato but he gave a decent performance as psycho lol that's about all that's good with this film and it seems like every film being made today has to do with the same subject matter it's actually getting kinda ridiculous but if you like the movie " Funny Games" trust this definitely going to be disappointing to you and of course the acting isn't that great all not because these actors aren't known because I love indie movies and some are great but this just isn't one them.

I usually put reviews about movies that were exceptional good or bad. This time I was very positively surprised by Malicious. I thought this will be just average film that I could watch on the weekend. You know, simple plot, nice to watch, maybe some good looking actors, chill movie. But I found it really cool.

I don't want to say too much about the plot but I find this movie very pleasant to watch, it's not what it seems and I'm very glad I did give a go. Way above average, and I'm glad I still can find new movies to watch. Recently I go back to 'old' movies from 80s and 90s, because most of the movies nowdays I would call 'poop'. Not every movie, but usually they're just crappy.

Right from the beginning you know the husband is a creep. The wife furiously chops brussels sprouts whilst he harangues her about her daughter's lack of respect for him, whilst all the while said daughter cries in the shower. Who chops brussels sprouts??? First red flag.

Enter the stranger, who we first meet downing straight whiskies in a nearby bar. Next minute he is knocking on their door, they let him in, and things escalate from there.

Who are the two thugs who show up looking for the husband? Were they just thrown in to add to the "suspense"? We will never know... Jesse does a good job of eating with a knife and fork, rather politely I thought at first, especially given the circumstances - until he started eating the steak directly from the point of his extremely sharp pocket knife - and who cooked the steak? He never even touched the brussels sprouts, and they were whole and not chopped either.

From there on it was a fairly predictable outcome.

No pun intended - this is not Dirty Harry - actually I forgot the name of the character I reckon would be the one to say this. He also asks questions and he very well knows that the ... person who has to answer will not feel lucky ... though he knows he will feel something, if he does not answer honest (and right).

That said, we get to a family and they are quite dysfunctional - or whatever you would call it. The acting is not the best, there is some very obvious implications (no brownie points for guessing certain things right - dynamic and ... let's call it "relationships") ... you can not be too sensitive about things. And you may find it hard to root for a certain ... guy (again no pun intended) ... but even if certain things are questionable ... they may feel justified! Of course only in movies - as in do not try this at home. This is ... escapism (well not literally, although maybe that too at one point or another) ...
