Einkunnir og umsagnir

Unbelievably brutally bad. The shitiest plot and writing ever. Beyond inconceivable. Affleck who is an excellent actor was at his all time worse....clearly did this piece of trash for the bucks. His co-star though saved this junker from completely going down the toilet.

Seeing the original trailer for this movie I did not have high hopes. Wow was I wrong! I usually dread sitting through movies that are longer than 90minutes but this movie was very well done I did not want the movie to end. A very good adaptation from the novel. This movie left me asking questions and just wanting to see more. The lead role was phenomenal she honestly made this movie. This is a must see and I must say one of my favourite movies of 2014.

I think I give the plot away here, if that's a problem: I absolutely adored it. Amy has got to be my favorite psychopath. I found the last series of events that led up to the ending to be quite a stretch in comparison to the rest of the movie, which was so believable that it was wonderfully chilling. That last shot of Amy was wonderful. It's almost sickening, in a good way, how easy it is to connect to Amy's motivations as a woman. I think I speak for a lot of people when I say that I've thought about it, Amy's plot, even before watching the movie. Dissapearing, or maybe dying and leaving your body to be found, just to destroy someone else. It's one of those fleeting thoughts; like, 'what would happen if I just stepped in front of that bus?' or 'if I jumped out the window?' something sick and terrible that you entertain, but only for a second but you're sure you would never do. Maybe that's why people love this movie, it's an awful secret fantasy, and it's all about power in the end. Everyone wanted to have it, and in the end she took it. That's why I can't get over this movie, she's so evil, so in control, all while looking so innocent. A true wolf in sheeps clothing.
