ScoobyWell Great visuals, story delivers no surprises

Inadvands Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess

Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Reznik_T This movie is neither outstanding, nor groundbreaking in any way, shape or form, yet still, it's a contained, tension filled, entertaining thriller that I pretty much have no complaints about. Acting, directing and camera-work are all tight, and what I really appreciated is that every setup in the movie had a payoff, which shows that they actually put effort in the script. This is probably the best performance I've seen from Tara Reid (she is really good throughout the film!), and Rip Pardue is also impressive as the male lead. This movie wouldn't have worked without these two strong performances, but they pulled it off really well. Even though it was made 14 years ago, and I've seen it two or three times already, it still holds up.

Chase_Witherspoon Looks like a mid-week telemovie and stars Tara Reid beginning to regret her recent nuptials to Kip Pardue, after he goes berserk on their honeymoon, turning out to be a grade-A psycho who's been stalking her, grooming her as his prized possession. He seems to develop an obsessive psychosis as he manhandles her around his 'island' (an idyllic setting surrounded by a lake which is useful, because she has a mortal fear of drowning), controlling her behaviour, opinions and generally engaging in ever-escalating forms of domestic violence. Initially surprised, she gradually becomes aware he's not the man she thought he was, by which time, it's too late and she must fight fire with fire in order to escape "devil's island".Momentum is present, the gradual escalation too, but the film never quite manages the "psychological thriller" for which it appears to be aiming. Tara's make-up and hair never seem to match the ferocity of Kip's brutal attacks, his creepy, emotionally detached persona done reasonably well. If you can't cop Tara, or for that matter Kip, then you're in trouble because they're essentially the entire cast, although Meredith Baxter-Birney has a very minor role.I've read that this is an independent film which explains the sometimes amateurish look and feel, though given the film's small scale, this isn't necessarily a deal-breaker. If you can suspend disbelief for long enough to accept the human headline, minor celebrity of Tara Reid attempting a vaguely important role, then this will be sufficient to pass the time.

snowydaze2007 Did anyone else notice that in the part where she is trying to get the "floating pillow" from the water with the fishing pole that is is not raining, but when he is playing his guitar and stops to go see where she is at, it shows her from the window with the fishing pole in her hand it IS RAINING.. you can see the ripples in the water on the lake, then it shows her back outside trying to retrieve the floating pillow and it IS NOT raining just wondered if anyone else had noticed that. I am with a company that offers the pause and the fast forward or slow speed, so i slowed it down and made sure I saw what I thought I saw. I have seen a few things like that in movies. I guess when they made them, they never thought about people being able to do things like that. The movie was pretty good, I have seen better and I have seen worse.

nabor7 If you are looking for a movie that has a predictable ending and in reality has a pretty far-fetched plot, this one fits the bill nicely. It's not that I didn't like it, I wasn't expecting a blockbuster and I got just what I expected, good cheap entertainment, (I saw it on LMN Network.) Mitch had thought of everything, or almost everything. You can never count on a persons fear to paralyze their actions when their life is at stake. Granted, the acting wasn't all that great at times, but I knew I wasn't watching an Academy Award Nominee. I have read a lot of bad reviews of this movie, one of which stated that the future of America was doomed if someone liked this movie. All I can say is that for me, I can watch a bad movie, which there are plenty of, or I can watch a good movie, and be equally entertained. One doesn't go into a movie such as this looking for answers to solve the world's problem, this movie and others like it are entertainment and entertainment only. Sit back relax and be entertained, even if it's counting the goofs, errors, inaccuracies, etc. Just enjoy.
