I Caught “Catfish” Fever

By September 19, 2010Movies

Saw “Catfish” yesterday and I am still thinking about it today. I love a movie like that. Something that while you are watching it, keeps you guessing and when you are done you are still thinking about it. Now I will say this. I see a TON of movies. I do mean a ton. I literally try and see every movie that comes out. There are some that I refuse to see, mostly of the horror genre, just because I don’t like to pay money to be scared, but I even see some of those as well. Heck I even saw “From Justin to Kelly” in the theater. But this has to be one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. It was so well put together and really kept me interested the entire time. At one point in the movie I knew what was happening, that happens to me a lot. I told you I see a ton of movies and if one is even slightly similar to another I will remember the entire plot line of the other movie and already “know” what is going to happen. It is rare that I am surprised at a movie. But despite knowing exactly, well not exactly, because even I was surprised at the magnitude and sincerity of the conclusion, I was never bored or annoyed with this film. It was so compelling and honest and intense. It IS NOT a horror flick or some lame “Blair Witch Project” type of thing. So if that is what you were hoping for definitely skip it. This a true psychological thriller in every sense of the word. Go see this film. Then have a dinner party after to discuss it. I guarantee it will be a most interesting night!
