Women

The movie opens with a woman running away... and then being found in a trunk, murdered and raped in bizarre, brutal fashion. The police arrive on the scene to investigate the murder. The officer uses a common English word incorrectly, which I thought was strange and hoped it wasn't a sign of what was to come. OK... so the net result is they know very little about the victim, so our protagonist goes to investigate with those who knew her.

With the bare minimum of clues, our protagonist police officer just magically knows that the killer is certainly local, white (because these types of things don't cross the color barrier, he says), and personal because of the nature of the crime. Even Hannibal Lechter wouldn't have deduced this and it's clear we've got a McGuffin in place for a local killer.

And then, barely 15 minutes in, we are introduced to someone evil who teaches at a school. The dead girls were students. Everything about him is... stilted... it is... strange... His speech patterns... what he says. But of course, nobody suspects anything. And in one moment I realized how dumb this film was going to be. Without ruining anything, since it is the first 15 minutes, the script totally unravels as a brainless, manufactured story that would never happen because it doesn't make sense. An absurd set up in a store that is straight out of a teen boy film leads to a scene which is completely manufactured for drama for the audience. Why would anyone who is invited into a home leave it momentarily, only to make up a story to get back inside a moment later and then force their way in????

At that point I realized this was another stinker with a terrible script, terrible acting and then leapt off the rails into complete absurdity. If I was in a terrible situation, such as watching this film, I could solve that problem easily by walking out of the film and not looking back. And just 1/3 of the way through, you'll easily understand what that means and why you're better off seeing this on VOD so you can just skip to the end if you really don't know how things are going to end up.

Like watching criminal minds, but one of the boring episodes, that weirdly left you wanting... more of an ending. The Stockholm syndrome and cops past stories could have been more defined and brought together a little more smoothly.................... I don't have anything else to say so here are a bunch of . To make up the right amount for a review ...........................................

2 women cannot fight for a 50s old professor and lock up in a house and walk freely but cannot escape ? It was the stupidest thing I ever seen. Rename the movie to stupid women more appropriate.

Adam Dorsey as the Detective is the only saving grace of this movie unfortunately the rest of the cast look like they have just come out of acting school. The interaction between the two captive women is laughable and as for the ending, well watch and see.

The worst-written episode of Criminal Minds, dragged on for 92 minutes.

There are movies that are produced worse, so I didn't score it 1 star, but it legitimately deserves -15 stars for writing. The writing is SO stupid it becomes insulting. I kept watching because I had chores to do around the house, and I didn't want to be too interested by what was going on on screen. It turns out that this movie, dialogue, story plot points and acting were so bad, it made me angry enough to get going on my errands. That's why this didn't get turned off in the first few minutes of dialogue, the next few plot points, the continuing dialogue, every insufferable monologue and that godawful piano scene.

There was no way to make that piano scene stupider and more unrealistic. The piano scene made me want to punch the movie quiet.

The acting wasn't great, but PALES in comparison to how terrible the writing was to begin with. Every spoken word made me want to track down the person(s) who wrote the script and just scream "NO" into their faces(s) for a few minutes.

That said, there are worse movies out there. So if you have chores to do around the house, and you want to support low-budget movies; have at it and turn it on for a bit.
