Review of Cake

Cake (II) (2014)
3/10
Tedious and one dimensional!
15 January 2015
I was looking forward to this movie a lot, i'm a big fan of Jennifer Anniston but was actually really disappointed. I feel that this movie had a really good foundation to really tell a great and honest story, but to be brutally honest.... Not a lot happened? I found that the character played by Jennifer Anniston was really one dimensional, this character could have had her history really delved in to and yet it was only skimmed across so slightly.

Acting wise, I feel Anniston really played this serious role well. I feel however, that this movie was let down by the slow moving script, the lack of story telling, and bizarre parts of the movie that I didn't feel were completely necessary... Certain introductions of characters that added nothing to the movie and really were just distracting the viewer from the lack of storyline.

I was really hoping this movie would be an honest account about this woman's struggle, I felt it would be informative and moving. However, I struggled to get through to the end of this movie and was wishing it would just finish already!
