Ashamed to see her performance in The Day


Terrible terrible film and Shannon was one - if not THE - worst thing about it. I never knew her acting could be so bad, her integrity was severely compromised in this.

Very disappointed...I know she didn't have much to work with but if anyone sees this film, understand.

Shame because she's proven that she is a good actress...

Hmmm, please watch the film and let me know what you think of her performance.

The guys did alright, but the female leads, particularly SS, is downright rotten. Just thinking about it makes me shudder. I really don't know what happened, maybe she was playing against type and that just didn't work for her...

Try not to hear, and watch - let me know.

I watched 3/4 of the movie.
Terrible.
She is usually a decent actress.....but she clearly was in autopilot for this role. And the fake accent was embarrasing.
Skip this movie. Trust me.

The movie was better than the average horror flick (which is what this movie basically is), and she was fine. Without giving too much away, her character is saddled with some messy motivations that the script and direction tried to obscure to make them surprising… which was a mistake, but not HER mistake. Given what she was expected play as a actress, it’s a pretty good performance.
