With Alec Baldwin, Jeff Goldblum, and Luke Wilson on board, this should have been a far better film. Luke Wilson's character comes across as a "Columbo" clone, with his bumbling questions. Alec Baldwin must have simply been on an ego trip, pairing up with Nikki Reed, while Jeff Goldblum acts like he is in a completely different picture. Parts of the movie having to do with the demise of Reed's Mother, Carrie-Anne Moss, border on sadism, and seem highly unlikely. What you wind up with is a failed black comedy, along with a failed attempt at duplicating an episode of "Columbo", with zero likable characters. Not a total disaster, but not recommended either. - MERK

Mini's first time is also Nikki's first time - in a leading role. Less than ten minutes into the movie, I already found myself wishing it was also her only time. But she's done it half a dozen times since, and chances are she'll do it again. Nikki Reed clearly can't act. She can't even talk. Her graduation speech, her off-screen narration, and even her odd lines of dialog all sound like they're read by a machine. A really bored machine. All she has going for herself is bleached teeth and baby fat. I would really like to see this remade with Rachel Leigh Cook, or Rachel Bilson, or Avril Lavigne, pretty much anyone but Nikki Reed really, in the part of Mini. But the worst thing is, her ineptitude as an actress rubs off on the entire cast. Even heavyweights like Baldwin, Moss, Goldblum, and Wilson, every single one of them normally reason enough to see a movie, are reduced to slapstick zombies. They must have needed the money. The debacle is, of course, partly also writer-director Nick Guthe's fault. He's so busy creating a glossy look he seems to have forgotten he's making a movie. This one went straight to DVD for a reason. Don't waste your time.

About 25 minutes into this film, it struck me. This is a sicko fantasy flick for teenage girls. Drink alcohol. Become a ho. Screw your step father. Kill your mother. Do it all to a musical accompaniment. (Turn up the bass.) Do it with a sneer that's supposed to be sexy. I had to watch the whole wretched thing to confirm that it was going to end with the obvious "plot twist." It did.There's nothing to redeem this film. The characters are stereotypes. The acting is atrocious. The girl is not pretty. And sorry fellows, she doesn't get naked.If you want to see a great film about an illicit affair turned murderous, see Body Heat. The author of this movie did.

This movie is one of the worst I have ever seen. Period, I only recommend watching this if you have watched every other movie on earth. Seriously, I registered for this site just to tell you how awful it is, I wish the vote would have let me give it a zero. I didn't laugh once and more often than thinking it was funny, I found it absurd to the point where it actually made me mad. Again, please please do yourself a favor and don't waste that valuable 1 1/2 hours of your life. Now its making me write 10 lines of text so I have to continue warning you that it sucks so es muy terrible, i dunno how to say it in french, IT SUCKS!!! Don't watch it!!! Am I at 10 lines yet?!?!? Seriously, this is one of the worst movies I've ever seen, the only consolation is Mini is wicked hott. There I made it.
