Perfect Stranger, Perfectly Horrible

Hallie Berry... how did you ever win an Academy Award? Overacting her role... Bruce Willis' execution of such a bland character, 'Harrison Hill', failed to save or add to this film. While most of the time I was occupied with trying to figure out what other movies Giovanni Ribisi was in (I decided Boiler Room was the most memorable one)... the producers/director/movie makers were busy trying to make various characters "suspicious".

The movie was so bad, I actually thought that there was the possibility that these clearly "suspicious" characters would probably be the actual killers. Everything else was being overkilled, that's for sure.

In the last 5 minutes, the movie redeemed itself slightly with a decent twist ending... Something that in a well-acted movie you might have guessed, but the rate everything else was going made you assume the ending would be equally obvious.

C+ rating at best.
