Pat Bergin's acting...Over the Top...


I laugh like a banshee watching his performance...He looks like a freaky frozen faced lunatic when talking to people after he discovers his brunette child bride (Julia Roberts) is alive and has ditched him...but carelessly left her wedding ring in the potty without making sure it went down with the other crap plotlines in this so called thriller...Freakin' MEOW!!

well that's how his character was supposed to be. i thought he did good justice to his character as the psychopathic husband.

Exactly.
I will say that Patrick's eye-bugging actually bugged ME after a while lol.
But otherwise he was chilling.


I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus.
Didn't he discover America?
Penfold, shush.

clearly too much sodium in his diet.

Too much of herb bread he likes so much.

Which *herb* was it? 

Definitely not an herb that would make him more mellow...

Yeah, when he starts to kill Laura's mother he just goes too far. I was willing to put up with it until then.

The way he looked at the phone when the woman at the YMCA told him of Laura taking swimming lessons was classic over-acting at its best but it still fit his character.... I die with laughter everytime.

reply

True!

He's always better when he uses his real-life accent.

He sure acted like a complete psychopath to me. It fit perfect in the movie. I thought Ben's acting was worse.
