Impulse...A Movie Review!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Positive Real Estate Professionals

I have a Blockbuster Total Access account that I received as a Christmas present from my younger brother and found that I really enjoy it. The ease of making a list of movies and returning them in prepaid envelopes has really won me over; so much so that I continue to use (and now pay for) my account long after the free period has expired. The account has also allowed me to get movies that I might normally leave on the shelf. This is how I came to see Impulse!

I watched this movie on Sunday night with three friends. I have to say that I was the only one left watching it when it was over! When I added it to my queue, I thought it would be a suspense thriller similar to Body Double or Basic Instinct but I was wrong! This movie had way too much skin and not enough suspense for my taste. There was very little build up to a pitiful crescendo. Nothing original! And as Officer Bar Brady from South Park would say ...OK People! Nothing To See Here! Seriously, leave it on the shelf and save your 101 minutes for something more enjoyable...like a visit to the dentist!

Chris - Seriously, even looking at a TV that is off would be better than this movie! At least the imagination can be fun! Next up is Eastern Promises!

Joan - I had it on my list but then a read a review from Vincent Martinez where he really didn't like it so I took it off my list. I might have to revisit that decision!

Rich, I heard that this movie stinks. i also hear that it might not be a great family night idea unless the family is wanting to give Billy or Jeanie a lesson on sex education.

Julie - It is horrible! Tired, poorly developed story, bad acting, and way too much nudity! Skip it!
