"Could You Kill Your Best Friend?"

My husband and I loved it, but we're in our 30s and both fans of the genre the twist ending reveals this film to be part of (don't want to give it away). I could see how younger people wouldn't like this movie--it's very slow and thoughtful in its buildup, there's no real gore, and you probably have to have a certain amount of life experience to find the characters intriguing. A lot of things I thought were boring as hell when I was a teenager appeal to me much more as an adult. There's a lot going on in this movie but you do have to be somewhat patient with it. The twist ending blew me away and I took it as a fresh and interesting variation on an old theme, one that I've read books on and watched movies about for years. It has its share of holes in the plot, which you'll either forgive or not depending on whether you like the characters and the concept. I did, so I forgave. The weakest parts for me were the social worker and Darlene's friend, who I thought were unnecessary characters. I was also not very interested in the chicks in the basement. For me, the film was at its best when examining the family dynamics, particularly in light of the reveal at the end.
Then again there's also just personal taste. Sure, most of the reviewers on here didn't like it, but you might. I can't count the number of films I have or haven't watched in the theater based on reviews that I turned out to have the opposite opinion on.
I loved it too. I'm 15, and I can also understand how some other teenagers wouldn't like it, I usually love the whole gore and torture setup of horror movies, but I also like the ones that make you think. A few of my friends on the other hand hate the movies that involve thinking though lol.
I really liked it though, and will buy it when I have the money.
