hyped garbage

Excellent, smart action film.

After reading the reviews and watching the movie I think Crush is a bit overrated. It's not that big of a deal. Just an above average thriller about stalking. Certainly not a horror movie where it is categorized in. A thriller that didn't get me on the edge of my seat. I saw the end coming from miles away. It was all too obvious. Actually I was just waiting for the outcome to be revealed as soon as possible so that we could get it over with and end the movie. Not that the actors were bad or so. They all did their job like they should, but it was just kind of slow and a bit boring. Okay to watch once and then forget about it. Well at least, that's what I'm going to do.

I have to admit, the movie did surprise me more than I thought it would. And it's not only in the title and what it means to one (or more) of the character(s) in the movie. It's also the story and the character arcs themselves. There are things that are obvious and then there are things that aren't.It's for the viewer to decide, what is obvious and if it actually is that obvious and what that would mean. Sounds complicated? It isn't and the movie actually does more than a decent job telling a story, even if let's say you know where this is going (for whatever reason). There might even be room for a repeat viewing. If you don't expect much ... you'll get a lot

From the subject matter and title you'd expect it to be formula and clichéd but it turned out to have quite an unexpected and interesting story. Plus the cast is good. Crystal Reed of Teen Wolf who I thought was too pretty to be the crusher is quite good at acting plain. Lucas Till of X Men First Class is well cast as the object of her affection.For this type of teen thriller the characters are not one dimensional. Good lesson about appearances and stereotypes, and not rushing to conclusions. Also that there are there are different degrees of crushes from harmless to not so. There is a twist that is actually a feel good twist about who is the that makes sense. There aren't any red herrings that are left unanswered and bug one after the movie. Liked the conclusion - things work out in a satisfying which is rare in this kind of thriller which usually is good only until the predictable twist. The directing is good to no silly shock tactics.Worth a watch it's better than some more widely released thrillers of this type.

'Crush' is more than a common thriller; it's an intriguing and thought-provoking movie, which makes you think whether those we admire are worth of our admiration, and whether those we resent really deserve our rejection. For, in the end it all comes down to real love, as the ones who love us love everything about us, no matter how crazy or weird we might seem to everyone else. 'Crush' is also a reminder that nothing in life as it seems and one should not jump into conclusions based on impressions one gets, but rather look beyond appearance and see what lies beneath. My favorite characters are Bess (Crystal Reed) and Jeffrey (Reid Ewing).
