Not was i was hoping for!
This will be another short review as there just is not too much to say about this film. The film started off great, a dead girls body is found and the story starts introducing you to different people that were involved in the dead girl's life such as her mother, her sister, etc.....
So basically its shot in several short stories and once the actors you see for each story is gone they never return for the rest of the picture. There is several familiar faces in the film including Piper Laurie (best known for Aunt Em in the Return to Oz,) Rose Byrne (from Troy and 28 Weeks Later,) and even Mary Steenburgen (Doc Brown's girlfriend in Back to the Future 3.) Also it features Giovanni Ribisi and Brittany Murphy who is on the cover of the poster and DVD but only in about 25 minutes of the film.
The story is pretty interesting, nothing ground breaking but it keeps your attention. There is some pretty decent sex scenes and some very good acting. Ok here is where they blow it..........In some of my previous reviews I refer to the end of a movie having what I call a "Christopher Columbus ending" you know your sitting there watching the film and all the sudden out of no-where the credits role and you sit there in disbelief thinking that it must be a joke. Yep this one should get the Gold trophy for that........up until the ending I would have rated this a strong 4 but the ending is so bad that it kills the entire film!
Anyway's I would say its worth watching once but DO NOT PAY......only catch it if its on cable or something. I want my $4.00 rental money back!

| Hmm. A lot of really great names in this flick. I'm surprised I'd never heard of it before. Well... perhaps not so much if it's as mediocre as you've reviewed it to be. |
