Summary:
To the Point.
"Jennifer
8" is an underrated movie of some of the greatest quality
I have seen yet. Andy Garcia, Lance
Henrikson,
Uma Thurman, and John Malkovich all give extraordinary
performances in a novel script
that
involves intriguing and very deep characters. The music
mixes with the dark directing style perfectly
to set the
thriller atmosphere, and there is just enough action to
make anyone happy. Behind the murders
involved
and the tense atmosphere, the movie also tells a romantic
love story of a blind woman and a cop
returning
from the badlands. It is a movie that draws you in - and
I'd recommend it to everyone.
