Reviews of Deadly Little Secrets the Movie "...it has some moments and the cast is nice to look at ...." - The Movie Chicks Reviews - May 2003 Should we compare a straight-to-video flick with
an Oscar nominee, or should we try to reward a movie that, as far as
straight-to-video flicks goes, is not bad at all? Whatever the answer,
Deadly Little Secrets, as far as bad flicks goes, is pretty good. But
it could have been so much better. Chris Parry To be fair, Deadly Little Secret does have a few
things going for it, which I will discuss in turn. The biggest problem
I have with it, however, is that the writing is so atrociously bad. Dialogue
is stilted, characters are walking cliches, and the plot makes bugger-all
sense. This is the kind of low-budget straight to video fare that has
enough talent and budget that it could have actually been a decent film
with a clever, or at least coherent, script. - Hollywood Bitchslap |
