A Simple Plan

Warning: Spoilers
This movie begins with a possible occurrence of a rape, and I wondered what on earth was happening. However, in the first 10-15 we find out that it's all set up, so the rest of the movie is based in explaining how the three characters have gone into the rape scene. Throughout its explanations, spectator is able to notice that Lissa is someone who does everything to be with Nick, even if that means danger-- and that's really what happens. She puts herself in big danger in order to save her boyfriend's life from a group of pseudo-bandits. It doesn't get clear if Lissa was deeply in love with him, or if she was just crazy to move out. The story, sometimes, felt a little over-the-top, considering that people wouldn't invent all that just to get a paid debt. However, I admit that directing made it feel tense for some very moments, mainly when their commercial is showing on TV, and they have to hide it from Bryce. That was such an intense moment. All in all, "Best Laid Plans" is different from everything you've seen, and there's a big chance that you will enjoy it. I did.
