I Know What You Did Last Summer. A teen slasher flick that never really pulls you in, but is saved by stellar performances from the up and coming actors and actresses that star in it.
"Party of Five"'s Jennifer Love Hewitt leads the cast as Julie James, the "nice girl" of the movie who kinda loses it thanks to the man with the hook (Muse Watson). "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"'s Sarah Michelle Gellar is slightly uncomfortable in her role as Helen Shivers, but gets the job done. Her elder sister Elsa, played by Mortal Kombat's Bridgette Wilson was my favourite character, her arrogant attitude, especially towards poor Gellar made me an instant fan. It's a shame this former Miss Teen USA did not make it to the final credits. Ryan Phillipe was superb, as usual, this hunky actor really plays his roles well, and is no doubt gonna be a huge star. Then there is Freddie Prinze Jr., the worst performer in the movie, and not surprisingly, all his movie roles are acted out half-heartedly and I'm surprised his cast in any movies at all, but bagging aside, he gets the job done. Smaller roles went to "Roseanne"'s Johnny Galecki and former Ellen DeGeneras spouse the very sexy Anne Heche.
Actors aside, their is not much more to say about this film, It is well written and Directed, but there is no spark in it, all though the slight twist at the end surprised me. Overall a 6/10 is all I could bear to give it. Sorry Freddie, you just need to find a passion in your acting.
