2.0 out of 5 stars too bad to be true..., 29 May 2007
By H. Serkan SILAHSOR (Ankara, TURKEY) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Surely, James Foley's WORST movie. A sleazy imitation, an insipid mixture of "psycho haunts decent family" sub-genre of thrillers like "Cape Fear", "Fatal Attraction", "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle" and even "Straw Dogs".

This flick is lacking all four essential elements of a powerful movie: originality, believability, substance and style. Characters are unbelievably funny & silly, so are their affairs. Lines are cheesy, plot is predictable & stale. On the other hand, Carter Burwell's scores and Thomas Kloss' cinematography is surprising good, but not making "Fear" a decent movie.

The movie highlights the importance of "being daddy's girl", otherwise some fatal complications may arise as we see: a pretty, mini-skirted but naive & stupid 16-year old blonde Nicole lives with her overworked as well as overprotective dady, her stopmom and stepbrother. One day, thanks to paternal pressure, Nicole decides to put on her miniest-skirt, wears 5-gallons of makeup and cuts class with her promiscuous & drug-addict girlfriend and goes to a bar. There, at first sight she falls in love with billiard-playing, tight-bodied but half-brained hoodlum, David.

After several trysts, full of saliva-free kisses, one night David strips Nicole of her virginity. Then he becomes obsessive, overprotective and violent. Overwhelmed by his "shifted" personality, Nicole decides to leave him. Also, her daddy warns him to stay away. But ignoring warnings David goes berserk and unleashes terror by infiltrating her life, decapitating her dog, destroying daddy's car, demolishing their house, spilling blood, and ultimately taking their house hostage in a carbon-copied "Cape Fear" fashion which is replete with ridiculous, trite and stale scenes seen in cheap, B-grade horror flicks. The final scene is the most terrible of all, desperately imitating Sam Peckinpah's "Straw Dogs" but it screws up all the money and effort.

This is what it is. A nightmarish experience for mature, intelligent and conscious viewers. We have seen such craps zillions of times. I wonder how some gifted people opted to be involved in such an inane project. I'm giving 2 stars for sake of musical scores and cinematography.

3.0 out of 5 stars Before they hit the big time came this..., 3 Feb 2003
By C. Jean-Baptiste (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This film wasn't destined to win any oscars but that's the beauty of it. Part titilation and part cautionary tale, Reese Witherspoon (Cruel Intentions, Sweet Home Alabama) is Willam Peterson's (CSI) daughter who gets involved with the obligatory bad boy Mark Whalberg (Planet Of The Apes). This is the kind of film that you get caught up in just as you are getting ready for bed on a Monday night and end up watching without realising. Peterson and Witherspoon are especially good and Marky Mark actually managed to scare me with his psycho stare as opposed to when he just used to take his shirt off and flex his pecs. Alyssa Milano (Charmed) is also in this as Reese's slutty best friend.
Basically this is your average psycho stalker film but the fact that we get to see them all before they were really famous is the big draw.

PS Anybody who ever heard the Sunday's version of Wild Horses will never feel the same way about it after the roller coaster scene. Trust me.

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing !, 21 Feb 2004
If there are any Reese Witherspoon fans out there, then this you must see this film.
It is a great film with terrific acting.It see Nicole (Reese witherspoon) meeting a guy and thinking that he is the one when all of a sudden he goes Psycho on her and her family. Mark Wahlberg plays the terrific stalker boyfriend David and charmed Star Alyssa Milano plays the tarty best friend Margo, which is a change from her normal role as good witch Phoebe on charmed. This is a good film that very different from other Reese witherspoon films like Legally Blonde as it is chilling and freaky. The situation that Nicole oes through could happen to anyone so this makes the film even more disturbing yet interesting. I suggest Reese fans see this film and even if you are not a Resse fan still watch it !!!!!!
