Inconceivable

Please don't waste your time with this Utter rubbish. I'm embarrassed that I watched the whole of the movie. Another absolutely crap movie with dreadful acting. Don't waste your time.

This film essentially begins with a married man by the name of "Gary Emerson" (Jason Gerhardt) flying from Los Angeles to Kansas City to attend his 20th high school reunion. While there he meets his former girlfriend who dated back then for a year and a half named "Valerie Stinnell" (Natasha Henstridge). After a few drinks he tells her that his marriage is currently experiencing some tough times and after embarrassing each other they kiss. However, when she suggests that they go to her hotel room to continue he politely turns her down and subsequently flies back to Los Angeles the next morning. Not long afterward he gets a request on Facebook to renew their friendship and-thinking nothing of it-he accepts her offer. But what he doesn't know is that Valerie wants more than just friendship and that she will stop at nothing to break up his marriage so that she can have Gary all to herself. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that what separates this familiar story line from others of its kind is the strong performance of both Marguerite Moreau (as Gary's wife "Jess Emerson") and the aforementioned Natasha Henstridge who played their parts quite convincingly. Admittedly, some of the scenes were a bit unrealistic and much too obvious, but it was still worth the time spent and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Average.

Was an ok movie up until the last scene. The director screwed the entire movie up by turning it into a comedy! My gawd! A 10 year old could have directed a scene better!!!

Character Development/Writing Quality: This is a strong script in many ways. The pacing follows a consistent rhythm with unnerving actions taken by the obsessed ex-girlfriend Valerie (Natasha Henstridge) from high school. She's bold behind the scenes, the steps she takes to win back Gary after 20 years subtle at first, then rising into an intense crescendo when she realizes that he is devoted to his wife and family. Though some of what she does is predictable (think Fatal Attraction and Obsessed), the ending presents a bit of a startling surprise.

Values: Strong family values. Gary and Jess are on the brink of a possible divorce due to financial stress, but they both are committed to doing what it takes to stay together. Their two teen children are played credibly as they fight to protect their family unit. The dynamic between the parents and children and between the married couple is played out very realistically and invite empathy from the audience.

Content (sex, language & violence): No sex (suggestive nudity from a picture of the villain), minimal language, strong violence at the end, an intimate tackle between the wife and villain in particular.

Scare Factor/Suspense: Suspense focuses on the audience's concern about the next tactic Valerie will pull. In the final moments of the film, the scare factor is heightened as the family's life is put in danger. This is a well done film with a viable story line, a captivating psycho, and an endearing family that you root for.

The worst movie I've ever seen. Terrible actors. Terrible story.
