I at least gotta admit that.
I had originally been writing a review AS I was watching this because the lead woman was driving me insane. Her decision making was absolutely horrible. At every single turn she appeared to make the wrong decision. I had tons typed out I had to scrap it all.
But it was all some ruse to help her kill her ex lover? Honestly, it still feels poorly done because none of that makes any sense.
How did she plan that? Was she just going to pick up riders forever until HOPEFULLY one that was shady came along? I mean how frigging convenient that the guy in her car was a criminal who was laying a gun on the seat the moment of the accident. That is ridiculous. Oh and not only that but what would the odds be that the man would go to where she could run him over hence the middle of the road.... You'd have better luck finding a four leaf clover on the same day you spot a double rainbow and win the lottery.
She also says she just needed him to talk to the police and didn't expect an accomplice. Well what exactly was her original plan? To go to jail for manslaughter like the passenger said she would? It hardly makes sense in the end.
The movie ends on the biggest eye roll BS cliche of all time. Okay first, they flat out showed this woman over power this man twice. Are we just going to pretend that isn't the dumbest thing ever? Only to get toped by the ending. How many movies end like this where the main woman is a psycho!? Seriously, PSYCHO woman is trying to kill a man. Man saves himself. Other idiot men show up and INSTANTLY kill the man and the woman just acts like she was the victim. Have people who make these movies ever watched a movie before? I've seen like 15 movies where the very thing happens. I was going to give it a 2 but it deserves a 1 after that horrible HORRIBLE ending. Like she was some super genius or something? It all revolved around unbelievable coincidences and nonsense. It made zero sense that once he realized she was a psycho that he still trusted her. He should've KOed her the moment she got back into the car after the cop and just let the situation play out. SHE had fired the gun not him. Yeah he'd go to jail but better then...dying.
