I really enjoyed the first half of this, but I feel the last half was way too predictable and standard "girl-gets-revenge" fare. Everything was set up nicely, the acting was good, especially the guy playing the security guard (with only a few over-the-top moments from him.) The elvis bit was fun and creepy at the same time, lending the bad guy some depth, but not too much. Funny how she was going to let him live even after all he'd put her through until his true colors came out and he called her a "stupid fucking cunt." Works every time with most women.
It really pulls you in, even when the bad guy is revealed very early in the movie. That's a move you can only make if the character is well-developed and acted, which for the most part was. But past the mid-way point everything becomes inevitable and you're just waiting for the pieces to fall in place.
First half and Thomas' character-- B+
Second half- CWorth a rent for sure.
At the end of filming I would love to peel Rachel Nichols dirty panties of her and taste it. Yummy!
