I Know Who Killed Me

It's been a while since I posted and I return with my review of Lindsay Lohan's latest movie.

The story was very interesting and had a lot of potential. Unfortunately the directing really let the story down. The story also could have been a little tighter and some areas could have used a little more explaining.

Lindsay gave a terrific performance as always. She did everything she could to really make the whole thing work and it was a great step further away from the teenage fair that made her famous. The directing let her down as well. A better director really good have used her overall ability to enhance the story but, that didn't happen here.

The supporting cast was a bit of a disappointment. It's like they decided that since they weren't in it very much they didn't really have to try very hard. That or once they started filming they realized the movie wasn't going to turn out the way they expected so they just phoned it in.


Spoiler Alert:


One of the things that really hurt the overall story was the way they dealt with Lindsay's character getting her prostetic limbs. She was in the hospital for a few days then one day a guy comes in gives her the prostetics takes her down to the rehabe room and she is instantly a master with them and experiences no pain while walking on her fake leg. She then gets to go home from the hospital that day and everything is fine. That's not at all how it works. It takes quite a bit of time to get the hang of prostectic limbs. They could have easily used some dialogue or super imposed a time lapse on to the screen in the next scene to say some time had gone by rather than just rush it like that.

The ending was also a little rushed and I don't know if a lot of people picked up on exactly what the connection was between the victims. There was no reason to kill Lindsay's characters father. And the confrontation between her and the killer could have been a little more climatic.


I did pay full price to see this movie and it was actually worth it to me. Despite the story issues I still found it to be a pretty decent movie. But, I'd recommend just seeing it on video or even waiting until it was on a cable movie channel.
