The author of the Curious George series is a better writer!


spoilers.. or better yet warnings, avoid this movie... (BTW, I was made to watch this tonight...)


This movie is written so badly, that you have to watch it just to see example's of really bad writing and wonder how they got this movie made. Were the writers sleeping with the producers or was there some sort of black mail involved.

Come on.....He rips apart the friends phone, yet he can still send text messages from the same phone? An outside door that there is no deadbolt in a new house? How do you explain this plothole away? They live in the country and not the city, this is the reason????? GMAFB!! She doesnt show the text emails from her friend to her husband that the friend sent to her at the same time that she says her friend is in the house? Everyone seems to get hit over the head with shovels or choked out but wakes up with no side-effects at all?

Obvious editing errors (see the kitchen scene where the father is taking off his tie in one shot, in the next he has it on again, and the next its off again.)

The prisoner doesnt look especially traumatized aftger being walled away in the dark for years, and the friend hasnt died after being stuffed in a car trunk for days with what should be a concussion... why hasnt anyone of these people thought to call 9-11 while being chased by a man with a shovel when he was on the other side of the door and not in the house?? They have cellphones now.. in fact one of them had a cellphone with her?


Man, I spose they still believe this is the 1950's and people don't think of all angles, or they think that people who would buy this mess also buy that sex and the city was good too.

I agree and notice how her friend was still clean and fresh and no dirt on her and her hair wasn't mess up and com'on every house has deadbolts now and only reason I watch this bad movie I was bored and there was nothing on tv

D.H.F.F

And why did she not leave her husband as soon as it was clear she was right about everything but he threw her under the bus when she needed him the most.

reply

Most of what you said has to do with the actual production and on-set continuity.

Compared to this horrifically bad movie, Curious George should be on the classics list in schools.

I appreciate your comments very much!

And I just cannot vent enough about how much I loathe the main character...her husband threw her under the bus, but not nearly soon or literally enough.
