Deadline (I) (2009)
2/10
Completely unfocused.
29 November 2009
Warning: Spoilers
I have to agree with the first comment posted about this movie... zero character development with even less writing. The actors did all they could, but the movie still came up short of even evoking such a strong emotion as boredom out of the viewer.

You are strung along for the entire movie, thinking you get to "figure out the mystery", only to discover at the end that nothing was real. Or was it? Was Alice (Brittany Murphy) simply unstable or was she suffering from PTSD? Was there ever a David or Lucy? TOTALLY UNCLEAR. You are left believing that Alice not only made the entire scenario up in her head to finish a screenplay, but was also seriously creepy in her personal life. It honestly made no sense at all.

Only watch this movie if you plan to use it as background noise.
