Review of The Resident (2011) by Karen F — 04 Apr 2011
** (out of four).
The story is a bit reminiscent of Alfred Hitchcock's masterpiece "Psycho" but the stortelling is stricting average in this mostly unexciting thriller. It sets up the premise fine, but never really delivers.
Hilary Swank is a ER doctor who moves into a new apartment in Brooklyn. Her landlord, played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan, befriends her, but that affection is actually obsession, putting her in danger.
Nothing really new here. Swank tries hard, but she is a hard actress to engage me.
