'the Roommate' Movie Review

Screen Gems Pictures released a new horror/thriller motion picture "The Roommate" into theaters a few days ago. I watched it,and believed it was incredibly excellent. I truly liked Gossip Girls star Leighton Meester's job as the psycho girl. The flick features: Leighton Meester, Minka Kelly, Cam Gigandet, Aly Michalka, Danneel Harris, Frances Fisher, and Billy Zane.

The flick focused on characters Rebecca (Meester) and Sara Matthews (Kelly) . Sara is a typical gal college student who looks to be having a superb time at college. Then one day,she gets a new roommate named Rebecca who appears very friendly to begin with. Well,at least to Sara,anyways.

All the others that Sara introduces Rebecca to,gets a bad stare,or a slightly uninterested vibe because it's about Sara,and only Sara when it comes to Rebecca,and no one better do anything to make Sara upset or else Rebecca will surely get on their case in an exceedingly worrisome way.

There wasn't much murdering in the film,but the next best thing happened. Rebecca starts out threatening one of Sara's friends after she feels she's the wrong influence. The altercation concludes with Rebecca yanking the woman's belly-button ring out. Ouch! Then she gets one of Sara's college professors fired when Sara tells her he made a pass at her. That one wasn't so bad.

However, things do really go a little overboard when she decides to stab Sara's past boyfriend to death with a box cutter,claiming, Sara doesn't love him anymore. It all goes on without Sara knowing. Sara doesn't get genuinely suspicious until she gets tipped off that Rebecca is on drugs for Schizophrenia. Sara tried to be understanding of Rebecca's strange ways until she finds out about the schizo stuff. After that, she gets weirded out. The very last straw comes when Rebecca gets the same exact tattoo as Sara.

This causes Sara to move out of the dorm,leaving Rebecca all alone to become even crazier,which leads to the big, thrilling conclusion that involved Rebecca,a kidnapping,Sara, some of Sara's friends,and a gun shootout. It was extremely intense and entertaining.

While it had a pretty predictable finish,I didn't enjoy it any less. It was a very good film for me. It never had any dull or boring moments,and brought lots of "edge of your seat" scenes. I certainly liked Leighton Meester's performance. She's been in a considerable amount of flicks here lately. It also presented some cameo appearances from Vampire Diaries stars Nina Dobrev and Katerina Graham. I gave it a great B grade.
