An average movie

To be honest, I wasn't really sure what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Michelle Monaghan and Michael Keaton, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, unfortunately, it turned out to be such an underwhelming cheap direct-to-DVD thriller. I mean, I don't blame Michelle Monaghan, I can imagine that playing someone blind must be on the bucklist from every average actor and she wasn't really bad but the whole thing didn't work at all. To make things worse, I do have actually a weak spof for movies taking place only on one location with only a handful of characters but, this time, this story was just rather idiotic. The whole point was, I guess, to see how a blind woman would manage to rescue herself on her own from two thugs but, to be honest, during half of the movie nothing much happened at all. Indeed, you just get to see the characters having the most boring and pointless conversations ever. Apparently, the viewers were supposed to believe that, during these conversations, that Sara (the blind woman) would manage to convince the bad guys that they should kill each other which was rather pathetic since they were both planning to do it all along. Finally, the ending was just as ridiculous as the rest. Why on Earth would she decide to keep the diamonds? To get her revenge from our f*cked up world? Actually, it probably means that she knew all along where the diamonds were hidden (otherwise, how would she know to put them back in the fridge?) so she was after all also another thief but this revelation was just as lame as the rest of the movie already was. Anyway, the damned thing was pretty weak and I don't think it is really worth a look.
