Not by choice

1/5 Stars

Cameron Diaz - Used to like her

James Marsden - Awkward opposite

I had heard this was a terrible movie, so I intended on napping through it while my mom watched. I would have been successful too, had it not been for the random explosions of volume the film provided. It would have been a much better use of my time.

The acting was just terrible on all accounts. I would normally stick up for these leads, but they for some reason were not on their game. The dialogue was unconvincing and hokey. This film simply tried too hard to be uniquely creepy. The random characters and signs seemed all too misleading. I was confused and unconcerned. It takes you through a vicious loop of a meaningless plot. In the defense that you might assume I hated it cause I was in and out of sleep, my optimistic mother hated it as well. You live and learn.

Acting: Terrible

Writing: Unsuccessfully trying to be something it couldn't

Cinematography: Simple

Story Line: Are you kidding me

Skip it, really.
