Review of The Resident (2011) by Moni K — 08 Nov 2011
When I saw a trailer I thought I could enjoy this movie. Unfortunately apart from nice New York views it has nothing interesting. First 60 minutes of this 86 minutes movie is absolutely useless. We don't find out nothing what we wouldn't know from the trailer.
Morgan's character - Max is a stalker and a probably will have some bad intention towards Swank's character - Juliet. I think that viewers don't need a whole hour to figure out something what can be captured in 5 or 10 minutes.
After this part we have typical mouse and cat chasing game and of course very predictable ending. I'm surprised that Hilary Swank decided to take this role. I'm even more surprised that in 2011 movies like this are still being made.
Nothing new and original, zero plot, so-so acting. I'm giving 2 stars for New York's views, though.
