One Bad Turn

Moviecut—One Bad Turn

Not sure how I came across this movie on Prime but I put it in my queue. Watched it tonight and many times during the movie I wondered why I kept watching - maybe hoping it would get better? Well, it never did. The actors were OK but nothing that would make me want to watch other movies with them, or, for that matter, watch other movies done by this director. The plot was very plodding, moved slowly along while I hoped it would get interesting at some point, but it never did. Yes, there was a plot twist at the end but that sure didn't make up for the whole rest of the movie. So, folks, don't even bother with this one...

Well I do not know why I watched this. I think I should have known better. That aside though, as cliche as predictable as this is, it does not contain many things that many would call offensive. While this is about infidelity, you will not see nudity in the sense you may be used to it from other movies. But that is fair - unless you have a real issue with it not going all the way (no pun intended). What is worse though is the acting - or absence of it to be more honest. The movie starts off with a scene that should be telling - I do not think that you will be able to continue watch after it. It is a meltdown - and while I do sympathize with anyone who has one of those, it will be impossible for the viewer to say the same for the character who has it to begin with (again no pun intended). There are some funny scenes, like when we have some oral pleasure while the husband calls in - but do not expect too much from that, it barely scatches the surface of being a good and funny scene. And I may have made it sound better than it is. But what are friends for? I mean reviewers (no pun intended)
