moviejournal - the perfect stranger

was meant to write something on this film after viewing, but abit of trolling on imdb revealed the negative comments are widespread. i don't really understand what's so bad about this film. Halle berry is doing her best work here as a complex leading woman whose determination is much larger than her boobs. the looks in her eyes are to kill for and thus priceless. a very suspenseful experience right until the end where the plots gets a bit bland and conforming to the usual "everybody's evil someone's just especially masterminded" kinda drill. no thriller these days is a good thriller without premeditated murder it seems. However having said all these i can't deny that i enjoyed the film more than average. it beats mr bean's holiday hands down. lol.

oh just on the subject of beans' holiday - it's a lovely albeit shallow film (but which bean's film isnt?) there's not much to comment besides the okay-looking euro/french/italian? chic and gorgeous continental sceneries.
