Amazing actors, but still a bore of movie. The first act is good, but you’ll see some red flags right away then the second and third act take a hard nose dive into sleepy eye rolling terrain. Things come off as so fake. For instance: the protagonist (who is a horrible human being with no redeeming qualities... ok) gets drugged and kidnapped by the mob. When she wakes they put a plastic bag over her head and right when she’s about to suffocate to death, the villain pokes a hole in bad through her mouth (good moment ). He then says “I hate you.” And she reply’s ( as calm and cool as ever),” but you’ve only just met me”. WHAT!? Anyway absolute garbage. You will be bummed unless you like fast and the furious movies if they had no action scenes. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What is this movie message though?, as long as you get money everything is allowed?
The best part of the movie is when she gets shot at the end and the worst part is that her partner lives and doesn't join her in Hell, what a shame.

Hey writers/director , why not do a ridiculous farce about white slave traders next time, most probably evoke more sympathy than your heroine in this dogs dinner of bad ideas.

I seriously had to write a review as it started off good, but this could be the dumbest ending or 3 act of any film i've ever seen. A complete waste as it could have been good but the end goes into fantasy land.

At first the plot seems good, and then as you get in hooding for good to triumph, major plot pitfalls develop. Never felt so morally bankrupt watching a movie before.

Thriller that goes from a very black comedy to horror. Cleverly written and wonderful cast of despicable characters.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The best part of I Care A Lot is when Marla gets murdered. Finally, an event she can’t undo and retaliate ten times worse because she’s already dead. If your fond of movies where the heroine is a villain who’s just as narcissistic as she is selfish then this is the movie for you. Honestly, it’s a great plot because you feel so deeply for the character and I really hate Marla very deeply. It’s a great movie but ding dong the witch is dead still sings in my heart at the end.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So this movie starts off rather promising, but quickly devolves into some sort of action thriller that immediately falls apart and never comes back. It could've been an okay dumb movie, but unfortunately it is something far worse - a terrible serious movie.

First of all - whoever wrote this doesn't know the difference between villains and anti-heroes. Even movies based around monsters know how to work around this by having a protagonist or at least someone likeable - the core of this movie is nihilistic, in that everybody is awful. Okay - but then why are you trying to make heroines out of the two monsters the movie revolves around? Actions scenes trigger sound queues to make us realize this should feel like a triumph towards a character we feel nothing but contempt for.

Peter Dinklage is great, but poor casting for a formidable, violent criminal - not because of his stature - because of his demeanor. Rosamund Pike is as great as always, but she has to work around a trashy script that tries to backflip and ends up breaking its own neck. No character arcs, no redemption, no folly. And then comes the ending - nonsensical schlock, where both the crimelord and the litigation parasite join forces, and then out of nowhere she gets murdered. Why? Well, clearly because they had finished the movie, but test audiences hated it, so they tacked on a scene that undoes the bad ending.

It's... it's a giant mess, really. The first act is promising, if a bit too dark, and then it all just goes to hell, and suddenly thugs and mobsters are complete incompetent clowns incapable of taking down a single guard at a home for the elderly or offing an unconscious person, while our evil legal guardian Jason Bournes the crap out of armed goons using tasers. It's just so improbable and moronic.

This movie completely falls apart at the script level, unfortunately. It's well shot, okay direction, great lighting, great soundtrack, and is somewhat well paced. But the writing of the characters, plot arcs, story and some of the dialogues are just so damn bad, I wouldn't hesitate to call it The Worst. At least if it were a little more hammy and a little less dour, it would've made for a fun romp - but unfortunately it is just too damn serious about itself to be this poorly written.

I guess making movies with some likable characters is a dying art. And this one takes the cake for the most disturbing sociopathic characters that I just can't identify with. Wth! I wish I could give this movie a negative rating and unwatch it.

This is an empty vessel, neither funny nor clever. Diane Weist is wasted. The plot and script aren’t worth the caliber of the actors.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Was such a promising movie. Shoulda ended with the main character drowning in the car and would have been perfect. Instead you get another 30 mins of some unrealistic **** of a suburban chick killing gangsters. And when she becomes his guardian? As if no one else will come get him?? Like I said, End it with the car crash and it would be a great movie. Expand

Worth watching is about all I have to say. It's not great, but for a Netflix movie, it's decently watchable.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. WOKE TRASH! I wanted to watch a movie with my wife on Friday night like we usually do. She suggested this one and I thought it wouldn’t be bad. Has a great cast and an interesting premise. Elder abuse is no joke and this movie shows this, but to let the predator who abused the elderly get the win is just trash. Just woke trash. Shame on the people that made this. No one should watch this spoiler alert:
Woman takes from the elderly. She then takes from the wrong person. She goes through some struggle and ends out on top. She gets shot at the end. You’re welcome

Seeing the ugly truth exposed in all its vile splendor may be hurtful and shocking, but sometimes it's a necessary wake-up call for the betterment of our collective well-being, as this cynical, darkly satirical comedy and social commentarySeeing the ugly truth exposed in all its vile splendor may be hurtful and shocking, but sometimes it's a necessary wake-up call for the betterment of our collective well-being, as this cynical, darkly satirical comedy and social commentary illustrates on the nature of predatory capitalism. When the owner of a shifty legal guardianship agency adept at fleecing wealthy seniors afflicted with mental health issues meets her match in an equally crafty nemesis with nefarious connections, a war of wits breaks out for domination and control of the situation, regardless of who might get hurt in the process. While the film starts to go off the rails somewhat in the second half, its wicked humor makes clear the ruthlessness inherent in the practices of this economic system, both on a personal and a global geopolitical scale. What makes the film, though, are its superb performances, especially those of Rosamund Pike, Dianne Wiest and Peter Dinklage. Some may find the content and message of this offering troubling, but that's simply the movie doing its job. It stresses the need for us to shed our Pollyanna attitudes, no matter how disillusioning that might be. Indeed, it reminds us of the old adage that it's easier to fool people than to convince them that they've been fooled. Expand

Absolute trash. It's the last of cucks 2 all over again XD They're trying to make you believe two dumb girls could take out a mob boss. We want to see the main character suffer from the start of the movie and yet she gets away with everything.
