28 minutes is all I take of this garbage - contains spoilers

So okay, 3 minutes into this movie, we have Miss Meadows, this strange woman in her mid 30s who skips along the street in a dress a five year old would wear.

She tap dances and is so happy. Almost like a scene from a Disney movie until she suddenly shoots dead her potential abductor.

Yeah this movie might be okay, I was thinking.

Then Miss Meadows meets a cop, they go on'date'...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Sorry but the cop is just awful. He's a pest that won't go away. I didn't like him - thought he was an annoying distraction.

I thought it was supposed to be a drama/thriller - all I have seen thus far is a whimsical comedy romance punctuated with whimsical music.

Goodbye! NEXT!!

This could have been a good flick, but as the story goes, the general idea got out of hand. The cultivated mind of a suburban vigilante got "dressed" into an unwatchable 60s housewife look. The last thing missing from this abomination was Katie Holmes breaking into a tap danced song sequence... The film feels like a musical without singing! "Toodle-oo" to the creators! Some women complain why there are no good roles for women. I wonder if perhaps the same women picked up a vigilante idea and turned it into a romantic picnic in the park?

I really like the way you think. I made it to the 30 minute mark before I shut it off though. Next time I'm inviting you over when a horrible movie makes its way to my TV screen so I can save a couple minutes of my life.

Who would want to abduct a 30 year old grown woman in a dress who acts like a simpleton!

Its that man again!!

I almost shut it off to but I stuck with it, it got a little better at the end.
