The one thing that ruined my suspension of disbelief in this film


"Partner at 24"

She graduated at 18.
4 years of pre law that's 22
Then 3 years of law school.....oh that'd be 25 when she graduated law school.

reply

Yeah, I immediately scoffed at that. And maybe I need to see the first movie but does someone who just achieved what she did risk it by taking drugs and banging strangers? I know the reputation lawyers have but still...

reply

I thought that too... but she's not in law. Later they mention she's in the finance industry.

reply

They said that she graduated magna cum laude a year early. Still unlikely that she'd make partner pretty much immediately after graduating though.

reply

Well if you hadn't seen the first movie... *spoilers* Basically she was taken over by Satan when she turned 16. She has a cult of people protecting her. So as ridiculous as it seems she would naturally become sucessful in the academic and business world.

18. She was taken over by Satan on her 18th birthday.
Maybe it was you who didn't watch the movie....

reply

It's a *beep* movie. Watching it once was enough.

reply

She wasnt a lawyer, she worked in finance

reply

I thought the same exact thing... But then I didn't see the first movie, so later on when the shrink is talking about her history I thought it was like a Damien thing from The Omen... all doors open easily with Satan at the helm, hahaha...
