This is my first review and nothing compelled me more to write it than the painfully positive reviews and the unreal rating for this title.
To begin with, justice was not done with the caste while Green was a type caste role, the "sexy evil genius" herself looked too old to play the role's demand. Performance department was better but not good enough, a staggering performance in the lead role while just an OK job from Green and Trachtenberg, hence my 2/10 rating only due to acting and a bit of interesting opening.
Even though I was already not too optimistic from the title itself my expectations were not very high, still the movie succeeded in disappointing me.
Plot was full of unsurprising, not so twisting twists, and there was a non existent element of suspense. Story progress, though interesting between different flash backs, was too predictable and annoyingly senseless. All of a sudden Nikky just doesn't like being called Nikk...
Character development was also not far behind the plot weakness, in sinking the movie further. The lead "Sexy Evil Genius" character itself gathers more irritation from the viewer than the genius image it struggles so unsuccessfully to project till the very end. In the end the sympathy and support the plot provides for the "genius" main character from other characters is plain failure for the writers to develop the character required to deliver the title role.
In total, it's all down the hill after a couple of good lines in the time before the main character "Nikki" arrives. Unless you really want to sit out the duration you paid for, I suggest leaving the theater and do something good with your time then watching till the end as it would just frustrate you more.
And to avoid further frustration to point you melt down and create an IMDb account only to write a real review, please don't read the rating and other positive reviews of this title.
