No Good Deed User Reviews
The story portrayed in
this film is pretty much spelled out in the trailer. Crazy escaped
convict terrorizes a woman and her kids. That's pretty much it, but
there is a nasty little twist in the story that I did not see coming
(although I did have a feeling). You know…. When you ask yourself
"surely it isn't this" and come to find out …. Oh yes, it is. I have to
give Colin (Indris Elba) a lot of credit for playing it super cool to
make his way into the house. Although you knew he was the "bad" guy who
is eventually going to snap, you kind of find yourself liking him for a
little while (with his fine self). Terri (Taraji P. Henson) was a
relatively smart women who made some serious errors at the beginning of
the film, but had I not known in advance what was going to happen, I
probably would not have thought that she did anything wrong. She was
just trying to be nice and do the right thing. Meg (Leslie Bibb) is
Terri's best friend and she drove home the point that no one knows you
better than your best friend. At first I thought that she was going to
be a little ditzy, but she proved me wrong. Jeffrey (Henry Simmons) is
Terri's husband who does not seemed to be vested in the relationship.
This is very apparent right from the beginning. I went to the 2nd
showing on the day the film was released and I have to say that the
theater was pretty well populated. The one thing that I have to say
about seeing a film with a diverse crowd is that folks talk (out loud)
to the people on the screen (myself included). Toward the end of the
film I heard myself saying "how does she think that's going to work" and
then immediately after that I said "why does he think that worked"…...
you'll see what I mean when you go to see it. Other than that, there are
three reasons why I liked this film…., the great lead characters, the
consistent flow of the film and finally the whole story was told in
around 90 minutes. This is director Sam Miller's first attempt at a
widely distributed feature film and I think that he did a pretty good
job. I would recommend it to a friend.
