Nice effects though.

It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Part of what makes a movie good is that the viewer can follow the plot. Alas, "Beautiful Creatures" failed in this respect. This story of two women who accidentally kill one of them's hubby does not make itself comprehensible. Rachel Weisz has starred in much better movies ("Sunshine", "The Constant Gardener"), so why would you want to focus on this? I expect England to make really good flicks ("The Man in the White Suit", "The Italian Job", "Letter to Brezhnev", "The Full Monty", "Billy Elliott"), but even the best don't succeed every time. There's always got to be something better this out there. It's not an awful movie, but not worth your while.

It really is hit and miss when you pick up a movie that you,ve never heard of before, but being a fan of Rachael Weiz i thought id give it a go.I was pleasantly surprised. It turned out to be very watchable and made me laugh my ass off. I love a good mystery/comedy. I thought it was witty and original. I also think it was filmed well for an small time movie. So with great humour, original characters and an interesting plot that keeps you guessing what will happen next i think its a thoroughly enjoyable film.Not to mention the adorable dog Pluto. He was so friendly it made me wonder whether he belonged to the actress playing its owner.

This low budget Thelma and Louise wannabe impressed me as cheap and amateurish. The dark humor in this "comedy" attempts to mimic films like Trainspotting or Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels but never even comes close. Weak acting, convoluted plot and horrible music make this a movie to avoid.

After watching this film I came away thinking that the filmmakers made this with a smirk on their faces. I know its done in tongue in cheek but this story seems to ramble and then aimlessly wander about, especially towards the end when I had grown tired of this messy story and the film wants to trick you and not end when you think it should. The actions of the two leads are inexcusable and the film uses the fact that they get knocked around to somehow give credence for they're actions. The best reason for watching this film are the two actress's that star. Susan Lynch and Rachel Weisz are engaging enough but its to bad that the material isn't better. Film plays like a second rate version of "Bound" but without the lesbianism. This is a script that really needed a rewrite. A little of everything seems to have been thrown in! Film really has no focus. Too bad, because they have two good actress's that probably could have done something with this material.
