That was an excellent one.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

This movie did have some suspenseful moments, creepy atmosphere and gory kills. The acting is good, especially by Rachel Nichols. I think the biggest downfall for me was the character Thomas. Yes, we knew he was obsessed with Angela and the actor did well as the "nutcase obsessed killer" but really he was so over the top and just came across so low functioning that I was surprised he could hold down a job let alone a job as a security guard.

P2 is a little nasty picture which does what it's got and doesn't apologize for it. The action takes place in a Manhattan office block on Christmas Eve. The focus of our interest is a young woman, Angela Bridges, who's clocking out after almost everyone else has gone off to join their families and celebrate. Angela gets down to the underground parking lot of the building where her car is waiting for her, one of the very few lone vehicles still within the abandoned premises. Much to her frustration, however, the car refuses to start, so she gets out and walks over to the security guy's booth to ask for help. The man seems polite enough and addresses her problem with keenness, suggesting it could just be the battery. After hooking a portable jumper to the battery it becomes clear that the battery is not at fault. He suggests a few more tips to which she politely declines and instead decides to call for a cab. It is from then on that things start to get nightmarish.It's certainly a limited concept with nothing much to play around, but given the circumstance it pulls it off splendidly. Aside from its predictability, the move's upside is the bypass of clichés, which in my opinion, is admirable. If you're looking for a substantial psychological thriller, look somewhere else. It doesn't really delve into the loonie guy's mind and attempt to extrapolate a certain cause and effect to his behavior; it doesn't rely on background at all. What it does is pick a clearly disturbed man and a pretty and victimized young woman, put them in a confined space and let the guy act out his demented plot, keeping the viewer on edge just because we really start to like Angela. And why? Because she seems to do all the right things unlike those countless foolish heroins in peril we've seen so many times. And if she fails over and over along her fight to escape, it's because the guy's really persistent. But aren't all crazies that way?

P2 is another low budget horror movie that turns out to have wasted the time of the viewer once you finish watching. Unfortunately by that point you've already wasted an hour and a half of your life on it, so consider this review a warning.It's an essential two-hander about a typical businesswoman played by Rachel Nichols (the CONAN THE BARBARIAN remake) who finds herself locked in an underground car park at Christmas time with a crazed security guard (American BEAUTY's Wes Bentley). What follows is a predictable and very tired cat and mouse game between the two of them, one that seems to go on endlessly and repetitively until there's a final dramatic conclusion of sorts.P2 singularly manages to avoid being frightening at any point, which may be because Bentley is channelling his American BEAUTY character and doesn't seem scary at any point - sad, yes, but a decent villain, no. Nichols gets zero character development and the director seems more interested in shooting her at chest height than anything else. In desperation, a couple of extreme gore scenes are thrown into the mix to spice things up, but they don't do anything in a film that goes nowhere.

Angela (Rachel Nichols) is a hard working businesswoman. It's Christmas Eve and she's one of the last to leave the building. Her car doesn't start and the only person there is security guard Thomas (Wes Bentley). She's in a rush to go to her sister's party. The taxi cab comes but she discovers all the doors locked. The lights go out and the building is shut down.This is a very strip down horror story. The setting is a simple non-descript business building and underground parking lot. The movie is mostly just two actors. Nichols is a reasonable actress whose biggest asset in this movie is her cleavage. Bentley is a creepy nerd-like character but he's not scary enough. There is some value to this paint-by-number strip down horror, but in the end, the value isn't all that great.
