Alone in the Dark

I watched Alone in the Dark the other night. It was good seeing Christian Slater act again. I always liked him. Although it seems in Alone in the Dark he has lost some of that spark that he use to have in the late 80’s early 90’s. But none the less he is a good actor and pleasing to the eye. Tara Reid plays his girlfriend. I just don’t plain like her. I don’t think she can act to save her sole. I just think she sucks. But that’s just my opinion. Anyway, back to Alone in the Dark. It was a cross between action and horror. Most of the movie lack realism even by movie standards. Maybe I’m just nitpicking at this movie cause it seemed to drudge on forever. Maybe that’s cause I was tired and just wanted it to end. Or maybe I just lose respect for any director and their movie that cast Tara Reid. If the part requires speaking then you need to find a different actress then her. Tara Reid’s best acting in this movie was her love scene with Christian Slater. But that’s probably cause she has had lots of practice with that in her personal life. Ok that was a cheap shot. All in all the movie is worth a look. But don’t expect to much.
