Movie about a married father(Reeves) being left alone for the weekend. Two girls unexpectedly turn up on his doorstep on a rainy night and they are invited inside. While waiting for their ride to turn up, the girls quickly seduce him. They then go on to become more trouble than they were worth and it seems he is unable to get rid of them.
Right from the start it looked and sounded B grade, the kids were wooden and the direction and dialogue was very badly staged, we didn't see much of the family except for the first few minutes, as they were just used to try and set the scene of a typical happy upper middle class family. It all felt very weak and transparent, even Reeves playfulness with his kids was bizarre, then he continued his moronic monster act, playfully begging for sex with his wife, who was a successful, but actually quite horrible sculptural artist.
The overall acting by Reeves was really terrible, I lost count the amount of times he pathetically wailed "Please, Please I love my family" and would start sobbing. Many times during the film he has a chance to retaliate or escape and failed miserably, it was painful to watch, not exactly suspenseful, more like ridiculous. The Matrix is one of my all time fav movies, and it was clearly a great movie whomever played the role of Neo, cause he really struggled to be convincing. the girls were attractive, and both believable as sexual hustlers praying on older men, but when they turned on him, it lost a lot of credibility, became even more ridiculous with stupid Jeopardy type games with Reeves tied up in a hair, trashing the kitchen like 3 year olds. The whole point of the movie was a payback for something that had never really existed in the first place, he was a pedo, then he wasn't a pedo?. The movie plot lines really had basis for their actions except to prove that men won't say 'no' to rape, from 2 attractive, young, sex crazed women...doubt that anyone was surprised with that outcome. 1 star for the Spanish pop song, 1 star for the funny phone call to the wife, 1 for Reeves role in 'Parenthood' that still lingers with me, great movie.
