bkphantom47 Its a fun movie if you don't have anything else to watch but not more than that! i find the plot smart but small. its like they whole movie can be described in just 2 sentences.The performance from the actors was really good and made me laugh few times but thats all about the movie.You have good actors that gave really good performance but really cheap plot that don't let the actors interact with the plot and make a good movie.I could say that its a bit short too and they could have add many thinks that make the movie better and more interesting as it ends really fast.You could say also it more like dark comedy because few thinks in the movie are unrealistic and these unrealistic thinks are based on the dark comedies.I am not criticize the movie as BAD movie but i cant say its good movie too.Its not THAT bad and you can watch it on an relaxing evening and enjoy it especially with your bf/gf if you both like dark comedies but prepared to don't except much as it doesn't have much to offer as a comedy.i am member of IMDb many years but never tough about write a review. thats my first one so forgive me about my mistakes :-)
Rubi Mendoza When this movie stopped being funny somewhere in the middle, it started being disappointing and disturbing. Yes, it's labeled 'comedy' and 'crime', but I didn't know that the first half would be one genre and the second would be another. As for the plot: the characters didn't have much trouble getting away with the crime, and the only real conflict was when one of them suddenly grew a conscience. The story is too simple – dispose of the body and get on with life – and the ending is consequently too abrupt.I have seen a lot of movies where people got killed, but none of them made me feel depressed as much as this one did. Probably it's because I first thought the characters were funny and charming – even as they were doing horrible things to Stacy's dead body – but then the movie took on a very serious tone and those same people I'd rooted for transformed into villainous criminals who gloated over the murder and the cover-up. I wouldn't have minded that Stacy-was- killed-because-she's-a-bitch IF the movie had remained comedic.I actually laughed at the killing of Ward's wife because the mood was lighter at the beginning of the film, but then the shift in tone also killed the entertainment factor. I felt disappointed at the end that I thought the masquerading characters should have been caught and not allowed the happy ending that they had.The acting was good, but the storytelling seemed to have come from two (or more) different movies, perhaps "Horrible Bosses 2" for the funny part and "The Purge: Anarchy" for the rest (I enjoyed these two films, by the way, but separately).
Dr_Sagan Although a member of 8-9 years, I'm writing reviews for the last 6 months and I've written more than 170 reviews. Never before I felt the need to characterize a movie as "crap" and give it 1/10.This movie not only is amateurish and cheap (although wikipedia mentions a ...5,000,000 $ budget, that didn't go to the 6-7 main actors who received ...100$/day for 12 days shooting) but the story is so shocking that I doubt there is a civilized person out there that can't be offended by it.Scott Foley, an actor I only knew from Scandal, directs (so to speak) and writes the most offensive "movie" I saw in recent years.FULL SPOILER ALERT: There are these couples with kids that don't like one of the wives that much (Dagmara Dominczyk) Ward's (Donald Faison) wife. Actually she's not a bad person or anything. They just don't like her. In a daytime party Scott Foley ends up alone in the kitchen with her. For a minor cause he decides to push her head into a cake. Seconds later she slips in one piece of cake that landed in the floor. She is hurt but not serious injured. Scott Foley (an actor/writer/director who I'm beginning to hate) without any particular reason decides to ...struggle her while she's lying on the floor!!!! Not thinking for a second about her kid(s) or her husband who is his friend. Blunt cold murder.But now is where the "movie" goes down the drain. Her husband, his friends and his wife decide that Foley did well and that all together they must get rid of the body. That includes put her in a tub, drain her blood from her veins, cut her to pieces, put the pieces in garbage bags and scattered them to many locations.To top all that her husband Ward (Donald Faison) pisses on her dead drained from blood body while in the tub.The movie is not a comedy, because there isn't a single laugh.It's not a professional movie either because all the "equipment" is a lame camera in a tripod.It's moronic because why scattered the pieces in different locations? To increase the possibility of someone find one? And why smash her head beyond recognition when we leave in the 21st century where DNA, dental records etc. are the first thing that CSI checks to identify a body? And it's shocking to kill an innocent woman and a mother for nothing and have your 6-7 friends to become lunatics who vandalize her body and become accessorries to murder and face the death sentence.Overall: What kind of stupid sociopath wrote this script? Ah yes. Scott Foley..
Gino Cox As an evidently low-budget writer/producer/director independent film, "Let's Kill Ward's Wife" is not a bad effort. It's watchable, although a little slow and heavy on exposition. The production values are adequate with reasonably clear audio and relatively few annoying jiggly-cam shots, although I found the color a bit washed-out. The cast has an easy camaraderie and there are some genuinely funny moments.However, it feels more like a made-for-television movie than a theatrical release. It's too conservative and middle-of-the-road for the material. It's not funny enough to be a comedy, nor black enough to be a black comedy, nor suspenseful or mysterious enough. The actions of some characters have the effect of re-energizing their sex lives, but the scenes are too tame to seem credible. Scenes that should be shocking and gruesome seem like something out of a parody or a movie from the sixties. The inciting moment happens far too late. All of the characters are quickly involved in an unlikely plot with few qualms and little hesitation. The conflict that motivates the characters seems weak, particularly regarding the females in the group. Everybody seems motivated by some sort of herd mentality and loyalty to their friends. There isn't enough sense of good people being trapped into heinous acts by circumstances beyond their control. The ending is not particularly satisfying because the script lacks a strong theme. There is an imbalance between their actions and the consequences of those actions. The characters haven't grown or developed through their experiences. We don't know what they would do in similar circumstances in the future or why and we're left with no better understanding of what we should do in similar circumstances in real life.
