Pornographic? LOL, no. Who do you think took her score? What is the term for movies like this? View all posts >

Yeah that was kind the whole point to her character. Didn't know anything about this film other than it was a Guy Ritchie war movie with Jake, and I watched it for that reason only. I found it to be very engaging and enjoyable to watch. Was it realistic? No, but it didn't matter to me, I wasn't expecting a documentary. If you base your consideration of film on your pre-conceived notions or ratings you need to find a new hobby. You'd think she'd get a decent trust fund out of the deal though. I liked it, too. The acting and filming were very well done and the story kept moving along with a variety of twists and turns for Esther to outsmart everyone. Speaking of twists, the <spoiler> reveal of the demise of the original Esther was completely unexpected and added a new set of complications.</spoiler>. I really liked the slow walk through the fire at the end; yes the house would have been filled with smoke, but it really added to the journey that "Esther" had gone through to get this far. She is an evil monster but you can't help but root for her. This movie deserves a 6.4 on IMDB. Fun is a good way to describe this; for such a simple little film the characters really stuck with me, especially the skeptic and sidekick. Anyone who cares about "hype" has no clue about art. Seriously, who cares? Experience it for yourself, maybe you like it, maybe you don't. It is a person who identifies as needing Mr. Tally Man to come into xer life when daylight comes. It's called toxoplasmosis and it affects nearly all cat fanciers. Maybe you should have watched an MCU movie instead, I could have easily spent more time in this world. My God that low rumble in the background added such an ominous feeling to those scenes and was very effective. Reminded me of the sound from the 2005 version of War of the Worlds. View all replies >
