Awful in Evil Dead


She spoiled the whole film for me, I thought she was atrocious. her acting was way over the top and almost comical at times. I've not seen her in anything else so I can't comment on her acting skills on the whole but she was so miscast in Evil Dead.

The overwhelming majority disagrees with you. Your opinion is wrong.

My opinion is not wrong at all you dickhead, my opinion is exactly that, my opinion...I aint wrong and just coz you cant pull a bird and are desperate to shag her doesn't mean you're right...We all have differing opinions and we all have the right to air them, none of us are 100% right and none of us are 100% wrong, the fact Remains, I paid money to watch this film (nearly 10 quid in fact) an I was massively unimpressed with her performance (which I paid to see) Therefore, I have every *beep* right to complain and just coz you choose to w*nk over her doesn't mean she can act. So you wanna disagree with me, fair enough, we all have our views but grow the *beep* up and do it like an adult you stupid little child. ...jeez!!!

This kind of reaction is what happens when you reboot a franchise for people who know nothing about it.

And as for not knowing owt about it, I'm 36 and grew up with films like the evil dead, and I don't diss a film just because its a re-make, and I did enjoy the new evil dead, I just did not rate the main womans performance which was crap. Do I deserve slating for thus fact? No I simply have an opinion

In my defence, it's easy to jump to the conclusion that you don't know about the Evil Dead franchise when you use "over the top" in a negative light.

I have no doubt in my mind that Jane's acting was exactly what people involved in the movie wanted, the character was both drug detoxing and turning into a monster, it wasn't the time for a small, nuanced performance. Whether you think that's at odds with the rest of the movie, where they seemed to be going for more serious, played for straight tone, then that's a different issue and says more about the filmakers being unable to find the right balance than it does Jane's performance.

Lol. You mad. And your opinion is still wrong.

You came here to troll this board and you're telling others to "grow up". Seriously...
