The two college students turn out to have something in common, however: abusive men. For Hailey, it’s her dad. For Amanda, it’s a stalkery ex-boyfriend. But problems can be solved and, you know, you scratch my back, I scratch yours. In other words, Kill for Me, I kill for you.

Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
Protraph Lack of good storyline.
LouHomey From my favorite movies..
Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Leah You've seen this premise before. It doesn't particularly go out of its way to bring something new to the revenge-thriller genre. The "twists" are obvious and uncomplicated. The acting is far above the cringe-worthy B-movie crap that the 1-star reviews would have you believe this is, and there are occasional moments of excellent tension and violence, but it's not very memorable overall. It's by no means a bad movie, however--even if I was really hoping to be surprised with a twist ending. (No such luck.) Like many thrillers, it falls apart in the third act and tries to wrap things up too quickly and neatly.There are far worse examples of the genre out there. If you're in the mood for watching college girls hurt bad people and get in over their heads, go for it.
Paul Magne Haakonsen For a thriller then "Kill for Me" wasn't actually that bad. Sure, the storyline was a little bit too far fetched and too extreme, but entertainment-wise, then the movie was good. And most of what made the movie good was the solid acting performances put on by the cast members, because the storyline was not what kept the movie afloat.The story in "Kill for Me" is about Amanda (played by Katie Cassidy) and Zoe (played by Shannon Chan-Kent) who live together as roommates, but their third roommate, Natalie (played by Leah Gibson), has gone missing. Struggling to make ends meet with rent, Amanda and Zoe get a new roommate, a girl named Hayley (played by Tracy Spiridakos). Amanda is having problems with an abusive ex-boyfriend and Hayley is having problem with an abusive father. Together, the two girls come to an agreement to help one another get rid of the abusing element, however, such an agreement comes with a price.Yeah, the movie was entertaining enough, although it had a storyline that was just a bit too hard to fully buy into. And the ending, well without revealing anything, I will just say that it was so cliché and so out of nowhere trying to tie up loose ends."Kill for Me" is really well acted by all those involved, but especially Tracy Spiridakos put on a great performance in portraying Hayley.The movie does progress at a nice and steady pace, which was just right, because there wasn't really a dull or boring moment throughout the course of the entire movie.My 6 out of 10 rating is mostly given the acting performances put on in the movie. The movie doesn't really have enough contents to its storyline to be seen more than once.
Troy_VA IMDb only allows whole number ratings so I couldn't give this a 6.9. Kill for Me features a fairly simple plot (or so we were led to believe at first) which turns topsy-turvy before ending in a surprisingly well- done climax. Some reviewers say the ladies entered into an agreement, inferring that everything was planned from shortly after they started rooming together and became lovers. That's a totally false presumption and I would assume that those reviewers didn't watch the movie and/or are just repeating reviews they have read. The reviewer dalcanon41 from London said he only watched the first 10 minutes and then warned people to not waste their entire evening like he did watching this movie. Heh. I spent the entire 95 minutes watching it and had no problem staying focused and enjoying the roller coaster ride from beginning to end.The two female leads (Katie Cassidy as Amanda and Tracy Spiridakos as Hayley) did an outstanding job of appearing sexy and vulnerable yet capable of taking care of themselves if necessary. The rest of the cast was good but the only other actor who was almost as good as the leads was Donal Logue as Hayley's enigmatic father. If you enjoy thrillers and/or murder mysteries that keep your brain engaged from start to finish, beautiful women who can also act in the leads and a very competent director and supporting cast, I highly recommend watching Kill for Me.
Mr_PCM Kill for Me seems such a by-the-numbers standard 'thriller' that there is almost no need to watch the film at all. Nothing about the film is particularly bad, but then there is nothing about it that is particularly good or original either. As a throwaway 90 minutes of diversion, Kill for Me is adequate, mildly interesting but almost instantly forgettable, given that it is almost entirely derivative of other, superior films - Single White Female and Horrible Bosses being just two that come immediately to mind. The very definition of a straight-to-DVD movie.The plot is obvious enough for even Ray Charles to see coming - university law student Amanda (Green Arrow's Katie Cassidy) takes in a new roommate, vet student Hayley (Tracy Spiridakos) when her former roommate goes missing. Meanwhile her ex-boyfriend has taken on creepy stalker-ish tendencies, while Hayley's dad is apparently quite free and happy with his fists. Amanda bonds with Hayley over their shared pain. Can you tell where it's going yet? Hayley of course seems fairly normal to begin with, and Amanda sees in her a kindred spirit. When thoughts inevitably turn to murder to solve each other's problems, things take a turn for the even more predictable and cliché, with one or two 'twists' that might as well have signposts signalling their imminent arrival.Yet there is a reason that this kind of story has been done before; it generally works quite well, and, for all its predictability, Kill For Me is relatively enjoyable. Admittedly it will never be in the running for an award for best original screenplay, but the performances of the leads do enough to gain the audience's investment in their fates, and are easy enough on the eye to measure up to other sorority house-style killer thrillers. There's even the inevitable Sapphic turn of events, which again regularly seems to appear in films featuring sorority age university girls. But the film is not sexy enough to be a true sorority flick, not bloody enough to be a real slasher, and not tense or unpredictable enough to be a genuine thriller - an isolated farmhouse, a mysterious disappearance and a few taut violin strings are not enough to automatically ratchet up the suspense.Overall, an average, adequate, run-of-the-mill (or any other synonym of merely satisfactory) thriller, that will provide 90 minutes diversion without the audience clamouring for a refund, but without much applause either.Meh.
