Kill for Me (2013)

Two roommates with abusive men in their pasts consider murder as an option to help settle each other's problems. Kill for Me packs 2 really good leading performances by Katie Cassidy (Arrow) and Tracy Spiridakos (Revolution) unfortunately that's the only positive thing about the film because this Thriller suffers from flat characters and a thin plot plus a slow pacing that simply makes the movie drag way more than it should. It also has the typical dumb moments that every single thriller has this days and the ending could been better but like i said the 2 leading women try their best but the script is just not that great it's for sure not a complete disaster but it's not a masterpiece either. (5.5/10)

The college student Natalie Ross (Leah Gibson) goes missing and her friend and roommate Amanda Rowe (Katie Cassidy) accuses her ex-boyfriend Cameron McClure (Torrance Coombs) to the police. However nothing is proved against Cameron and Amanda's roommate Zoe (Shannon Chan-Kent) decides to rent Natalie's room to share the expenses of their house. They accept the student Hayley Jones (Tracy Spiridakos) and she gets close to Amanda. When the upset Cameron threatens Amanda, Hayley defends her and they have a close relationship. Soon Cameron breaks in their house and hits Amanda; however Hayley arrives at home and hits Cameron on the head with an axe. Hayley convinces Amanda to hide the corpse, burying in the farm of her abusive father Garret Jones (Donal Logue). Then she tries to convince Amanda to kill Garret, but Amanda refuses. Hayley kidnaps Amanda's friend Mark (Adam DiMarco) to force Amanda to kill her father. What will Amanda do?"Kill for Me" is a predictable and shallow straight for video thriller. The characters are poorly developed and Cameron, for example, is murdered and forgotten by the plot. The bisexual Amanda is also a confused character and it is not clear why she had accused Cameron for the disappearance of Natalie. The conclusion is corny and is not clear why Garret has kept Natalie alive in the hole. As most of these average thrillers, the conclusion offers an easy moralist solution to all the problems, with the villains dead and the redemption of the lead character. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "Sentença de Morte" ("Death Sentence")

It is a wonder how a film or book can be boring and interesting at the same time but it happens. This is an example. Yes the story line was interesting and on a side note Katie Cassidy (a legit scream queen-Black X-mas, When a stranger calls, A nightmare on Elm st.) loses her normally blonde locks for a much more natural look that I dug very much. I felt this film had a good story but was painfully boring most of the time.I felt the actresses more often than not were one note and dull. The actor who plays the obsessed boyfriend was an over-actor. The direction was fine but the pace and the soundtrack was just not up to par. However i did like the twists and the bit of mystery towards the end but I wouldn't watch it again and that's saying a lot for me because when i even sort of like a film I'll see it at least twice.It wasn't original really and at times reminded me of a wannabe Single White female or The roommate only not as good as either.

so this movie is about killing for each other, and these two roommates, one got a step father who molested her and the other one's ex-boy friend was like a sticky chewing gum that won't take no and went away and then turned violent, then these two girls helped each other killed those two guys for each other? givemeabreak, will you. you think this film is full of twists and surprises? no, dude, it's not, at least to me. i really don't know what to say about the other review and it read more like the movie producer's advertisement. to me, this film's plot and scenario are both so loose that i could see what's gonna happen next from miles away. what allowed me to watch was one of the actresses is very attractive and at the same time, her performance is also not bad. i seem to remember that i've seen some other films with her in them and got a very nice impression. but beyond that, there's nothing in this clichéd film worth watching and take it too seriously. by the way, two female roommates doing some lesbian scene in the shower, and you don't think it's cliché and formulaic? givemeabreak.
