The Image of You

I really sorry to be rude but certain films deserve certain screenplays, if certain directors deserve it, if they deserve it, let's start by saying that in this film there is the usual sentimental triangle that is used by all the screenwriters who do not have the skills of writing a script !! Consequently, they take refuge in stupid sentimental or sexual triangles, the riggia is really bad, the script is written with the feet and the actors are ridiculous I don't know what else to say to describe this garbage, this is an insult even for the films reserved for TV, in assist the films for TV are absolute cult.

The only reason I gave it a two is because I did actually make it through to the end, although why I bothered I'm not sure!

It was also quite stylish, in its own way. Some of the outfits were stunning.

That said, the plot was completely obvious from the start and I kept waiting to see when everyone else would twig.

There was no plot twist as it hit you like a brick to the head within the first few minutes.

None of the characters were particularly likeable, especially the nice twin. Irritating doesn't come close, but I think that was meant to be the point.

I guess I could give it another point for the Titanic hand on the steamy car window, but I'm not feeling generous enough tonight!

I was looking for a new movie to watch and didn't have much time, which is when I stumbled across The Image of You. Seeing that it is a mere ninety minutes, with a few recognizable TV show actors, I decided to put it on completely blind. At first, the movie seemed very campy. The dialogue was awkward, and the story felt forced. Nothing of substance occurred until the end of the film, where so much happened that it felt super chaotic. To pile on, Zoe is one of the most unlikable characters I have ever seen in film, and Nick is irredeemably heartless and dumb. At times, it was hard to watch. However, I pretty quickly stopped taking it so seriously and began to actually enjoy it a little bit. I was able to have fun watching the big twist, and laughing at the scenes that were outlandish. Overall, this was a pretty bad movie by all means, but it could be somewhat of a fun watch if you indulge in the campiness.

Okay, this isn't my normal go-to type of movie, but a friend got me to watch it. And I do LOVE movies in general esp old movies from the seventies and before and there was so much style and movement and beauty to this film that it reminded me of movies from the past while definitely still being super modern and fast-paced. Also all the beautiful people in the film didn't hurt to look at. I thought the lead actress was INSANELY good. No spoilers but she did a helluva job. And Mira Sorvino and husband were epic. If you like thrillers and twisty movies or movies from an era gone by, check it out!

I watched this without looking into it too much.

I originally thought it was going to be like those movies you see in the afternoon on daytime television. When it got going I was totally into it and didn't see what was coming until really late into it. I thought it was definitely worth watching and I enjoyed it.
