39. When you're spying on your neighbors at night, be sure to leave all your own lights on. The snobby girls were right about him: he set off their creep radar. I agree, an often-plodding story culminating in this sudden spate of "reveals" (each more implausible than its predecessor) - didn't work for me either, no matter what the writer's intention. I agree, and I attended medical school a long time ago, but I can't imagine things have changed that much. There was no "frat boy culture"; there were no frats. Little if any hard partying; orgies unheard of. Nor do medical students regard themselves as "kids"; most are well aware that bad behavior of the sort described could end their budding careers. The time spent studying was all-encompassing. I don't think the writer did any investigation into what medical school is like at all. It's also very unlikely that two childhood friends would attend the same medical school at the same time, like Cassie and Nina, and, apparently, Al and Joe. Possible, just not likely. And, as you said, they were too young to have finished training. This was just a little too much disbelief more me to suspend, but I did like Carey Mulligan's performance. Yeah, she looks great. I thought she was younger, too. Then again there was a Washington (state) plate on the van that Jamie broke into. Julie Bowen was actually 52, but I agree they made for a good mother/daughter pair. That was McClintock, who was one of the soldiers who participated in the massacre. He, too, would have contracted syphilis afterwards at the house of ill repute. She didn't take the Paxil or Zoloft but she HAD to take the Ablixa (and admits to it later in the film), knowing that her blood would be checked for it after being arrested for the killing. Agreed. I found them utterly implausible and simply annoying. View all replies >
