Peeping Toms can save peoples lives
sometimes. First up…
The Boy Next Door
Before having an affair with your neighbour
first sign an agreement to share the cost of a new fence.
However, property lines are the last thing
on the mind of the horny housewife in this thriller.
Separated from her husband (John Corbett)
due to his infidelity, high school lit teacher Claire (Jennifer Lopez) raises
her son on her own.
Before school starts, she has a one-night
stand with her neighbour’s nephew Noah (Ryan Guzman).
When school starts, he’s enrolled in her
class as a student.
But when she spurns his advances, Noah
starts terrorizing her family and friends.
A contrived contribution to the obsessed
ex-lover genre, BND not only suffers from an absence of overboard antics on the
crazy persons part, but also from Lopez’ inability to emote or deliver dialogue
in a credible manner.
Besides, first it’s sex, next thing you
know your neighbour wants to borrow some flour. Red Light
Inherent Vice
The best part of being your own boss is you
get to decide if drinking on the job is acceptable or not.
Apparently, the P.I. in this mystery
doesn’t have a problem with being high at work.
After he’s hired by his ex-girlfriend
(Katherine Waterston) to keep her new boyfriend Mickey (Eric Roberts) from
being committed by his wife, Doc (Joaquin Phoenix) is hired by a radical
(Michael K. Williams) to reclaim money owned to him by Mickey’s bodyguard.
It’s not until an ex-junkie (Jena Malone)
asks Doc to locate her missing husband (Owen Wilson) does the pothead private
dick put things together.
Brimming with far-out characters and a
career-defining performance from Phoenix, P.T. Anderson’s interpretation of the
comedy-crime novel is an instant classic that only cracks under it’s protracted
running time.
The downside to a stoner detective,
however, is you have to constantly remind them to solve your case. Yellow Light

Fear
Teenage girls like to date bad boys because
the nice guys aren’t rich enough yet.
Mind you, the young woman in this thriller
is doing it to annoy her father.
Sent to Seattle to live with father
(William Petersen), his new wife (Amy Brenneman) and her son after being
evicted by her mother, Nicole (Reese Witherspoon) meets the enigmatic David
(Mark Wahlberg).
Shortly after the two become an item,
Nicole begins to miss her curfew – enraging her father who is already angry
over David undermining his authority.
By the time Nicole realizes David’s true
nature, he and his friends have surrounded her home and having begun
terrorizing her family.
The quintessential crazy ex-lover movie,
Fear is not only loaded with outlandish behaviour on the part of the unstable
party, but it also showcases Wahlberg’s best performance to date.
Incidentally, the only guy good enough for
a man’s daughter is a eunuch.
He’s a Stalk Boy. He’s the…
