Review of Birthday Girl (2002) by Derek J — 19 Feb 2008

Its a highly predictable movie that isnt much of a joyride besides the beginning. You have a foreigner than doesnt speak english and a local englishman. There only connection is thru sex. Once the birthday happens, the movie goes down the predictable and stupid lane.

The only driver that keeps me watching is Nicole Kidman and the fact that she speaks Russian so quickly that it feels fluent. Altho this movie is a slump it really shows how hard a worker Nicole Kidman is.

She doesnt slack off cuz she knows she's in a bad movie. She treats each one with the respect it deserves and learns Russian cuz the role requires it. There is no wonder why she is my fav but this isnt the only reason.
