Review of Twisted (2004) by Claudia D — 30 Nov 2007
I would hardly call this 'twisted'. What they're trying to tell you is that the ending has a twist, but it's twisted in a way that nothing makes sense in the ending. It was easy enough to guess who was behind the murders, and I hate it in films like this when they need a twist so they pull out a random person to be responsible. No clues, no nothing to explain why.
The plot is convincing though, if only it was made better by the acting and 'twist'. It follows a female police officer who is investigating a series of murders, and soon finds out that she has slept with all of the victims. The plot tries to draw you in with the possibility that she might be the killer she is looking for, she seems to be going a bit crazy dealing with her father's death.
It wasn't just the ending that is this movie's downfall. The acting could have been a lot better, it seemed as if they just didn't care. Ashley Judd was okay, nothing more. Samuel L. Jackson was the easiest to tell that he gave this movie nothing special, and then Andy Garcia was really the only decent performance, I kind of liked his character.
It's not something I would recommend for anyone to see, but hey, maybe you might enjoy it more than I did.
