Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
ellaroberts-70141 The Boy Next Door (2015) I thought this movie had a very questionable story also predictable, i have seen many movies with the same story so when your watching it you kind of know whats coming, don't get me wrong still a good movie that gets you on edge throughout.
Tushpi This is not as bad as some of the reviewers make out. I have seen far worse. It is a story that has been told many times before. It is entertaining. The type of movie you grab some popcorn and don't think too hard about. Jennifer Lopez is not a great actress but she is easy on the eye and the film exploits that repeatedly. It has some exciting moments and Ryan Guzman is very menacing in a number of scenes. The ending is a bit unrealistic and some of the dialog cheesy. It won't win awards but as a piece of escapism it was enjoyable.
jsaus63304 Totally a formula movie. We have seen the plot a dozen times with a mentally deranged person who is obsessed with another person, works their way into the life of that person and becomes dangerously deranged. Similar plot to films like Fatal Attraction, The Babysitter, The Stepfather and dozens of other films on the Lifetime Network. What really amazes me is that well known stars will actually accept rolls in films like this. Do they need the money that badly? Maybe with American Idol ending, Jennifer Lopez felt she would need a little cash to hold her over to the next gig. Bad acting, bad writing, bad character development, bad plot. The best part was the end and the worst part was that it did not come soon enough.
Slobodan Stamenkovic Claire Peterson (Jennifer Lopez) after problematic marriage is feeling vulnerable and looking for something new. She needs to hear from man (not husband) something she already knew looking in mirror, that she worths. Husband cheats her (first time was when he married her). Beautiful and attractive woman is alone at home, sexual heat between her and younger neighbor and she makes no mistake having sex with this boy. This was result of mistake when she married.After sex she feels guilt because somehow she knew being taped. She offends boys pride and after this we have plot. As a revenge her e-mail is hacked, Noa (boy) tries to embarrass her... I could criticize Jennifer Lopez but she has "bigger picture". She knows what she is doing and where she is going so... This dynamic movie is small part of JLo puzzle.
