The Roommate (2011)

When it's over, The Roommate was a waste of time.  It's about a college student who learns that her roommate's obsession with her begins to turn violent.  I would consider this film a remake of Single White Female, which was so much better.  This film had a lousy story, lousy acting, and a lousy script.  There was nothing remotely interesting about this film.  I laughed at the stupidity of the whole thing.  Imagine, death by utility knife. How ridiculous is that??!!

My rating: 1 out of 5

  1. Yes, definitely a remake of Single White Female.
    The acting in this only reminded me that not all actors are good! I found it funny as well.

  2. The film is so bad, it's funny. However, I don't think it was the director's intention to make a comedy.

  3. I liked the Roomate. But then again I'm just a fan of Leighton Meester. I thought her death was epic. She didn't just fall down and die. She had a moment when she looked into the camera and the viewer, or at least I, felt her sadness, if not relief to be released from her plaguing mental issues. I would give this movie a 6/10. It wasn't a complete waste of time but definitely low on the priority list of must see movies.

  4. I'd have to agree with the reviewer. Not worth the time.
