Dark Honeymoon

This film really took me by surprise. I caught this in a hotel room while vacationing with my brother and his awful girlfriend (needless to say, the vacation was a total bust and this movie was the highlight - I should re title this review "Better Than a Week in Cancun!).

Considering the cast and the unnerving suspense, I'm flabbergasted as to why this movie didn't reach a wider audience. I won't divulge any of the plot information, but I will say that there's a final act reveal that you will NOT see coming. My jaw hit the floor, and it's still there, actually (I think my jaw is broken - it's weird).

The acting is uniformly excellent all around. The writing was twisty and unexpected, and none of it felt scripted. The movie just moved...and it was pretty damn good. I highly recommend this one.

I've seen about 7000 Movies in my career (Cinema manager, art-house projectionist, art school, LOL) and normally i don't write reviews. This man got talent, writing skills are great, the overall tone of the movie works...Camera could be a little bit tighter (1:1,85 that means) and nowadays all editing programs come with filters, why not beef up the colors...But like said, this movie is really good! Reminded me of Hitchcock and Basic Instinct with a twist. If i was a Hollywood Tycoon i would invest in that talent... First of all, the story never stalls... Second, even when you start knowing who's behind all, you don't stop watching... Third the music is just set right and even manages to carry the editing...

Roy Sheider, Tia Carrere, Daryl Hannha, Erik Roberts (may well have lost his Role in Batman had this been on his showreel)... some good names from a few years back...how bad can it be you ask yourself. somehow the director has even made these actors appear like this is their first time in front of a camera, pinnocio was less wooden I must admit I couldn't watch the whole film, in fact 20 minutes was enough for me despite all the flaws others have mentioned, the writer must be held accountable for this misguided story, one of a million all seen before, I assure you now, any good reviews on this movie must be from the directors mother.

Strange film, some tidy actors, some people who think they can act and an editor who must have gone on vacation during the making of the film . The sound engineer must have recorded the sound in an aircraft hanger either that or the police interview room was set in an Amazon warehouse.

Avoid this one like the plague. It runs like a bad lifetime 'thriller of the week'. Instead of Markie Post, we get Lindy Booth eagerly trying to earn a Razzie. At least Nick Cornish is hot and he can act (a little).

The plot is boring, the editing is predictable. I'll give them a little credit for the cinematography. The G-list 'stars' appear for a few scenes and disappear. I suspect they were grateful to meet their bloody destiny in order to be spared the suffering of the rest of this dismal film.

IF you're going to make a bad movie, at least make it campy or amusing. This is just a badly written and directed thriller without thrills.
