Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

mentalcritic Selma Blair is one actor I normally make an effort to avoid, but she is surprisingly good in this B-level piece. Indeed, I think she was done a great injustice by the slick photo that comes with the Australian DVD of The Sweetest Thing. Her performance in Cruel Intentions was not exactly a highlight on her resumé, either. So when I see her in a vaguely appealing form here, the surprise factor is enough to make me award it a bonus point. Quite possibly, this is all that the film has going for it, as I am struggling to think of another selling point.The plot, such as it is, concerns a loan officer who works in a big city bank. She's suicidal after discovering her lover is less than perfect and her goldfish is dead. So she goes up to the roof. Coincidentally, the bank is robbed, and she gets taken hostage by one of the perps when things don't quite go to plan. Aiding him in his escape, we follow her as she learns more about this rather charming robber with a passable British accent.The fundamental problem here is that not enough happens in the midst of all this character development to distinguish the story. Perhaps the problem lies with the DVD I viewed the film on. The dialogue is very indistinct in the 2.0-channel mix that is offered on the Australian DVD. Sometimes the difference between a boring, uninvolving scene and one that has the audience grinding its collective teeth in anticipation is merely a sound mix. So if you're thinking of buying DVDs from the Australian market, be advised that at least indie distributors in America take some pride in their workmanship.Tom Heaton gets a great cameo as the wounded man in the robbery, delivering one of the few stand-out laughs the film has to offer. The ending is syrupy enough to make anyone in the audience, even those with hyper-productive islet cells, sick to their stomach. Apparently, this feature was based upon a short film. The eighty-six minutes that this feature-length offering take up feel like at least sixteen too much, but I may be biased because of my desire for something noteworthy to happen during a story. The number at the end of the film is equally sugary and over-glazed.Still, I have seen plenty of worse offerings, so I gave Kill Me Later a five out of ten. Speaking of bad audio, the theatrical trailer on the Australian version of the DVD is encoded several decibels louder than the feature presentation. And they wonder why we parallel import?

cowcrazy411 A dark comedy about a depressed bank teller(Selma Blair) who is contemplating suicide when her bank is robbed.Bottle of booze in hand,she is inches away from jumping to her death when the heist goes awry and she finds herself face to face with thief (Max Beesley)Panicking with the law closing in,he asks for her help. She agrees to help him escape if he makes one promise- kill her later.AND SO BEGINS A RUN FOR BOTH THEIR LIVES.Rated R for some language.This movie is really good when you get the chance rent it you'll be glad you did ( well thats what i think )

Amber Kill me Later has a concept that has been done to death. The script is a bit immature, but still very much enjoyable. Both Max Beesely and Selma Blair pull in solid performances in this piece. One thing that's enjoyable about this movie is that all of the characters are generally relatable. Selma Blair's Shawn is utterly pessimistic, While Max Beesely's Shawn is hopelessly optimistic about things. The film may be a little contrived but the ending is a little more realistic. It's sweet, it's funny and at moments, you'll want to cry. An enjoyable film.

George Parker "Kill Me Later" is a romantic comedy about a suicidal woman (Blair) who reluctantly takes up with a bank robber on the lam (Beesley) if he promises to shoot her once he's made his escape. What follows is busy enough with side plots, action, and snappy patter to keep the waning eye lid open in spite of the movie's many flaws including unnecessary visual effects, loose ends, Kodak moments which don't work, and a speed bump at the midway mark. Okay for sofa spuds. (C+)
