ChikPapa Very disappointed :(

Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Allen Williams What a devilishly delightful film this turned out to be...This movie could be placed under the category of "rape & revenge" stories...Which it is to a point...But this film is so much more than that...I would say that this film is a combination of "I Spit On Your Grave" with NONE of the graphic and disturbing rape scenes..."Raising Cain" with duel personalities instead of multiples...With a touch of "Fight Club" hints throughout the duration of the film....At least that's how I saw it...Danielle Panabaker is a highly intellectual young Hollywood talented actress with impeccable credentials in show business...It was quite an audacious move for her to take on a film like this...Her performance in Mr. Brooks as his daughter would have more than likely led to her character becoming more dark and intense...Unfortunately the less than stellar box office results for Mr. Brooks probably means there will be no sequel...But that's alright, because as far as I am concerned...This film is the unofficial prequel to Mister Brooks...This could be the story of what happened to Jane Brooks while she was away at college before going home to her serial killer Father...Nicole LaLiberte was also wonderful in this movie...Nicole LaLiberte is to Danielle Panabaker what Brad Pitt was to Edward Norton in Fight Club...Only Nicole was darker...Much, much darker...This film will stand the test of time and develop a cult following...That is if it hasn't already...This is a powerful...Mind bending...And Sexy thrill ride from start to finish...And that's all there is too it...

bfd21552 Think "Black Swan" with FX for a three-year old. Or, think "The Corn Dog Man" with no plot, humor, quality writing . . . or ANY real complication. Or, think "The Rape of Lucrece" w/o poetic Drama . . . Or, think about any "story" totally dependent upon sex & violence. Wonder about WHY anyone would enjoy such plagiarism disguised as art but existing as nearly pure twaddle. Is cheap exploitation Art? What would Aristotle think of this film as "drama"? What would Charlie Chaplin think of this work as a waste of film? Is it really profitable to create such BAD cinema (it must be, as so many poor films are released). Wouldn't one learn more about philosophical existentialism by spending one's time pulling the wings off of flies? (Yes, one would.) Don't get me wrong; I UNDERSTAND what the message is. I UNDERSTAND the "techniques" (crude though they may be). What I cannot understand is why such a poorly made film was actually released upon an otherwise fairly guiltless universe. Still, if one likes pretension, slaughter, and gratuitous sex and violence--"git 'er Done!"

Katy C I'm surprised that the viewers didn't really understand the movie in it's entirety. Shae has just gone through a horrific rape, she has also been dumped by a narcissistic prick who has no real feelings for her. She's in her own personal hell. What does Shae do? She creates a fantasy. A fantasy where she and "Lu" go on a killing spree. Lu Lu is a figment of her imagination. She is the Riot Grrrl inside Shae. How do I know this? At the end the camera pans across to all the places they supposedly killed all those men. They are clean, free of any bloody carcasses. Why? Because no one died in these scenes. The director is letting us know that it never happened. Shae takes a bath, cleansing herself, starting fresh. She's ready to take on the world. She is no longer afraid. She's brushing her teeth and the camera pans right and shows us the Japanese robe "Lu" wore while killing Shae's DJ friend. It's hanging there as if it's always been there. It's Shae's bathroom robe. Then we see Shae at work, smoking in the stairwell. When she's talking to the crying girl, Right before Shae inhales the smoke from her cigarette, the camera goes out of focus on Shae's face and in the background you see another light. This light is of another cigarette being inhaled. This is letting us know that "Lu" is NOT dead. At least not in Shae's mind. Shae has now taken on Lu Lu's persona. She is no longer an innocent. "Lu" has always been there. And now she sit's behind Shae figuratively, keeping watch over her girl. Shae needed those fantasy's and "Lu" to get her through the rape and breakup. She will probably always distrust men. Of course it's all relative. This is what I perceived happened. I encourage you to watch it again if you don't believe me. I loved this movie. The acting, cinematography and music made it a really beautiful film that made me really think.

jerry-saleem well this is a great movie with great acting everything was perfect in this movie main character (negative rule) acting was so good ,well this movie is about a girl Shae (Danielle Panabaker ) after a series of bad experience with men,shae teams up with her Co ;worker Lu (NICOLE LaLiberte,who has a simple deadly way,of dealing with the opposite sex well u can said its really a great,outstanding movie of 2013,i did not know why so much negative review about this movie maybe all r men which r against this movie so much because women is in this movie with there full power and I request to the audience don't notice r care about movie low rating (which is not a good rating) and don't notice negative review because movie is great by himself not need to be a good rating r any prove of his perfectness because when people watched this movie they must loved it its movie only just for open hearted people which not be jealous that why female did bad with guys) so must watched this movie a really great story with twist with great acting and great music I simply say I loved it
