Synopsis
Steve is a man who has it all, a successful career, wonderful children, beautiful home and a loving wife. However, returning to his home after work on his birthday, he finds his house deserted and darkened with almost all the lightbulbs missing, all easy access outside cut off and a videotape waiting for him. Playing that tape, he watches a bizarre and grueling recording in which his wife explains her grievance with him, her reasons for disappearing with the children and her revenge for how he treated her in a way he would never forget.
Review
First I have to say that the acting was nothing short of superb. But
Steve takes it another notch higher when you realize he spends almost
the whole movie reacting. His facial expressions while mostly spending
the whole movie as a captive audience of one, portray as much, if not
more, than had he been given the non stop dialog his wife was privy
too. He is amazing and whether liking the movie or hating it this
cannot be taken away.
As for Alexandra's revenge, I think it would have taken a lot more than
a Prozac to cure. She unleashes years of repressed anger and lashes out
with enough venom to poison Steve, the kids, and herself many times
over. Of course neither party was faultless, but while Steve's faults
reflect a sadly typical man's point of view; they're not vindictive.
Nipped in the bud early on and some counseling and/or trying to educate
Steve in what he's doing wrong is reasonable. But here she stores up
all that anger, she prostitutes herself and blames the shame for that
completely on her husband as well.
When a marriage self destructs who hasn't witnessed the worst in people
brought to the forefront. But Alexandra is sick, a mental equivalent as
dangerous as her faked cancer. The children are pawns in her revenge.
As for the last scene when he pathetically attempts masturbation to a
movie scene that cuts him to the core? It speaks to his total pathetic
devastation. Here is a man in the depths of depression, alternately
engaging and failing in an act which will most likely drive his esteem
lower, and at other times watching the children - family - he's been
robbed of. Repeated replay of his children wishing him happy birthday
pile-driving him further into utter repair.
His faults were those of omission. Hers were evil through and through.
How much hate would you have to harbour to do that to a person?
(Remember when he was trying to call her about the security bills for
the re-keyed deadbolts etc. Salt in the wound when she apparently was
providing payment to her neighbor for services rendered.)
And lastly, if at some point his neighbor had been sliced diced and
served up in some sushi bar, I wouldn't have minded a bit!
