A Perfect Murder

Rating:
Summary: Entertaining
Review: This movie was if nothing else, entertaining. I don't think the people who made it had any delusions that this film was going to win any awards, but it was entertaining, which is the whole point. Oh, and the thing with the phone, that was specifically a kitchen phone, a seperate line, thats why only the phone in the kitchen rang. But I will agree with you, why she answered it is beyond me, you'd think they'd have an answering machine. But, if she didn't, they wouldn't have a movie.

Summary: By the end you wish they ALL would die!
Review: I was surprised I could like a movie that makes you hate all the characters. No one deserves sympathy which makes for a very original feeling after viewing. Definitely worth seeing. I personally am glad I bought it.

Summary: Perfect c***
Review: This movie is c*** from begining to the end. It relied on some overhyped sex scenes [which themeslves are not much] to promote itself. I really could not blame them for doing that given the movie has nothing else to offer. It shows Douglas, an apparently shrewd and cunning man, rely on a conman to kill his wife. The conman, who being very shrewd too, fails to murder the wife and dies, the movie then shows how Douglas falters in every move to cover his tracs and kill his wife at the same time. To make things worse the wife plays little if any role in his downfall. This movie should be renamed it should be called 'Perfect foul-up of a murder'

Summary: Very intriging
Review: An unhappily married rich man hires his younger wife's lover to kill her. Will someone PLEASE tell me who the protagonist is supposed to be here? Other than the lack of a sympathetic character in the story, the rest of this movie is absorbing and quite suspenseful.

Summary: flat, uninspired thriller
Review: A Perfect Murder falls far from being the perfect film. Or a good thriller for that matter. Other than Michael Douglas the acting in this film is flat. This movie is about a businessman (Michael Douglas) who finds out that his wife (Gwyneth Paltrow) is having an affair with a struggling painter (Viggo Mortenson). Douglas offers to pay Mortenson half a million dollars to kill his wife. If you've seen the trailers and commercials for this film, then you know that part already. The main problem of this movie was that it felt too predictable. We all knew what was going to happen at the end. Another huge problem is that none of the characters in the movie are likeable. They're all corrupt in their own way, even Paltrow's character. A much better thriller is David Fincher's The Game.

Summary: The movie was great... until the end.
Review: The movie was really interesting... I loved everything... until the end came. The rest of the movie doesn't go along with the ending... and neither does the title.

Summary: Why is this $90?
Review: Hello you stupid idiots! I am not going to pay $90 for this movie. Yes, it is a very good movie, but $90 worth? I don't think so!

Summary: Leave it on the shelf
Review: Don't waste your time here, folks. The ending will leave you with a bad taste in your mouth and an empty space in your wallet. All this movie needed was a good ending. If perhaps she just smiled ONE TIME the end, the movie would have been great! All I needed to see was a little smirk, and the dumb broad was too lame to do even that.

Summary: Although interesting, stick to the Hitchcock classic.
Review: This is a pretty good movie, but I like the Hitchcock classic, "Dial M for Murder" a lot better. Paltrow is cool, and Douglas is sheek. In the Hitchcock movie, "Dial M for Murder," Grace Kelly is MUCH better than Paltrow, and Ray Milland is much more cunning than Michael Douglas. Go to "Dial M for Murder" on amazon.com and buy it! Although "A Perfect Murder" is O.K., "Dial M for Murder" doesn't need all of that nudity, language, and blood to get its point across. With Hitchcock, it's always a pleasure. Trust me..."Dial M for Murder" is a lot more "perfect."

Summary: Ending was too weak
Review: There wasn't enough suspense and a strong climatic ending that could have this movie shine.
