... View MoreGreat story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
... View MoreStory: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
... View MoreRecap: Two career-minded young and successful women, Holly and Jan, live together but compete for everything. The promotion at the job and even more importantly perhaps, boyfriends. No rules apply and Holly flees the apartment after Jan tricked her out of town during a important business meeting and then seduced Holly's new boyfriend. Holly moves in with Tess, a vulnerable young woman that soon take a liking to Holly. Too much perhaps, because soon Tess copies Holly clothes, hair color and starts appearing at her job. All the while Tess tries to force Holly to break with her former friend Tess seem more and more manipulative.Comments: A rather poor attempt to make a psychological thriller. Unfortunately it seems they forgot to bring the psychological element and seem content that the audience will keep watching just because all the leads are young and beautiful actresses. It doesn't work.To add a psychological level to any movie you need suspense to go with some really well written and developed characters. Relationships need to be given time to be established and to evolve slowly, to seem really plausible. This movie gives the opposite. There is no depth to the characters. Each and every one of the three leads are shallow, manipulative egoistic and it is hard to sympathize even with the heroine. Neither of them is very friendly, even to their good friends. Also the relationships develop without cause or explanation, it looks more like temporary alliances and feuds that start and end with a single word.The story is also predictable on a level that even the heroine should see what is happening. It annoys me that she suddenly trusts her new roommate (Tess), whom she has known all of a few days, more than old friends when Tess accuses them of having tried to take advantage of her. Why would she do that if she had any real connection with any other person? No, this movie doesn't work, at all. Sure, I can see that the women are beautiful, but that doesn't make a movie. And it is far too little when you try to build something deep and intriguing out of thin air.3/10
... View Morei don't know what to think of this movie.i mean,it's definitely trashy,and more soft core porn than thriller.there's some pretty bad hairdo's in this one.and there the pretty people,and i mean that in a sarcastic way.the two friends/co workers were supposed to be hot,i guess,but they really just seemed plastic.the only woman in the movie i found attractive was Alison Lange because she wasn't all prettied up.she has natural beauty to her.anyway,that's beside the point.back to the movie.there aren't really any sympathetic characters.they all get what they deserve,especially for being as stupid as they all are.having said that,i actually thought this was a fun movie,watching the bad acting,and the main characters continually trying to screw each other over.if you ask me,they're all nuts.and then there's Todd Babcock doing his best Julian McMahon impersonation.all in all it was trash,but it was amusing trash,i'll give it that.my vote for single White female 2:The Psycho is a 5/10
... View MoreDoes the director of Single White Female 2 have an underwear fetish? Every five minutes there seemed to be a scene with a sexy woman walking around in her lingerie. I counted about six different colours too! Victoria's Secrets must have bankrolled the film for product placement. Not just that, but he takes every opportunity to show these nubile young things bending down or standing at an angle to get the highest ratio of cleavage. Yet, when it comes to delivering the goods, by delivering the whole boob experience, he chickens out and instead gives us a selection of body doubles or back shots. The only nude scenes in the entire movie are in a club for perverts, as tied-up extra get whipped, violated or abused in other ways. Nice.What? You wonder why a spent a whole paragraph discussing the finer points of on-screen nakedness? Because it's a distraction from having to write about the rest of the film. If you've seen the original, you'd think this has a similar plot: A nice, normal girl is going to move in with a deranged lady (The clue's in the title) who slowly takes over her flatmate's life, while simultaneously slaughtering her new flatmate's friends one by one. Correct, but with just one exception. The nice girl in part II is not a very nice person. In fact, she's downright despicable. She lies to her friends, she breaks personal belongings then denies it, she unlocks boxes containing cherished possessions to have a look inside, and yes, she is a total bitch. Any right minded person would love to see her get a comeuppance. Bridget Fonda she ain't.So, besides her and the mad, pensioner-murdering, nurse roomie, is there anybody else in this cocktail of bad acting and materialistic values to root for? Well, there's the main protagonist's slutty best friend who seems to be an exact copy of her dreadful mate.. only difference is one's a redhead, the other's locks are black. They work at a PR firm together, and their competitiveness in being the first to get a promotion is completely boring to everyone at home. Then there's the dopey hunk of a boyfriend who comes between these two bimbos.. he leaves so little impression in the picture he might as well stand there in his striped boxer shorts scratching his butt while the gals fight it out. If anyone looks like they just wondered in from a GAP ad, it's him. I DID enjoy the performance of the girl's boss at the company, sadly his acerbic wit only livens up a handful of scenes.. then it's back to the bitchiness and general air of tedium that set the tone for the rest of the movie.Not only are 95% of the people featured here incredibly irritating, they are also extremely stupid. Why is there blood on the floor? Why, the workman cut his hand while trying to fix something and he's just gone to the hospital! Of course I believe you! Next, I think I'll drink this wine given to me by someone I suspect is borderline insane. Is it drugged? Certainly not!! Then, we have the big treasure chest which conveniently contains news clippings about every victim the villianess has ever murdered, as well as her life history, discovered by the 'heroine'. So much for covering up the evidence. The class of serial killers just ain't wot it used to be. Still, at least this gives audience members who haven't been watching for the last hour a chance to catch up with the storyline. Oh and yes, I am being sarcastic. DUH!Finally, we have the predictable HUGE CLIMAX between the two women, though why anybody would bother to cut the main phone line so the other party can't summon help with the surfeit of mobiles in America in 2005 is a mystery to me. It works, though. Strange, that she's had her Nokia with her in every scene other than that one. Much hysterical shrieking, pseudo-lesbianism and gratuitous throat slashing of black police officers ensues, until finally the torture is over and we can all go home. And no, I don't means the torment endured by the local constabulary at knife-point. Straight To DVD should have meant Straight To The Bin in this case. YUCK! 2/10
... View MoreWhat the hell is up with that title? Was Hedy in the first film the epitome of sanity?? Getting past the redundant title and the title sequence which look like they were written using post-it notes, you find a movie exactly like the first one. Wait no strike that, that one has Skinamax caliber acting, a surprising total lack of nudity (save for one body double and a few extras in a S&M club), and a disjointed and uninvolving plot (hey it IS like the original in that way). This movie (and I use that term loosely) was so bad that I half expected Mark Blankfield to show up in a role. OK, maybe not THAT bad, but very awful none the less.My Grade: D-
