Perfect Stranger
Perfect Stranger
Starring Halle Berry and Bruce Willis
1hr 49min (R)
Genre: Film/Thriller
I thought this was rated PG-13, but apparently not. Hrm. Anyway, I think/thought that Perfect Stranger had a great twist ending and intriguing themes. Then I Googled it for the length and star details, and WOW. No positive reviews at all. Am I just fundamentally weird or something? Because I completely accepted the (admittedly ridiculous) premise and enjoyed the film.
Because I liked how everyone was under suspicion. I liked how the ending surprised me even though I should have known better. I liked the implication that Rowena's story continues after ending credits. I liked this movie and I still like it, despite everyone else in the known universe (AKA Google) hating its guts.
The plot is indeed completely inane, and I find myself confused in attempts to summarize. But I think this film a successful cross between the genres of thriller and artistic (yes, artistic)--if you can suspend disbelief. Vaguely recommended.
