Review of The Boy Next Door (2015) by Anthony M — 07 Feb 2015

The critics hated it and I knew it! With a predictable plot and a poor final battle, it's easy to see why people could hate it. But the beauty of the film is skin deep. First you have tantalizing Jennifer Lopez and if you saw her growing up like I did from In Living Color to now, for someone just shy of 50, she is absolutely beautiful and gorgeous in this film, and it's no surprise why the antagonist is in love with her.

You almost partly feel sorry for him. Perfect in looks, body and brains but massive mental issues. There's almost nothing he can't do, oh wait, the main thing he can't do is what causes his downfall, control himself. The film is an edge-of-your-seat Thriller and you alresdy know how it's going to end, I didn't exactly expect it to turn into a slasher, especially with all the killings happening or becoming known about at the end. Still a fun catch and a story about a lot of young men going after milf's or older women. Don't be fooled though, that blonde is somehow not Cameron Diaz!
