Swimfan (2002)
5/10
Fatal Attraction......For the kids....
25 February 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Ben Cronin has the admiration of his friends, a terrific girlfriend, and an appointment with swim scouts from Stanford.

Ben must train for countless hours in the pool for a critical swim meet, work at the local hospital and find time with his girlfriend, Amy.

His life is disrupted by the arrival of Madison Bell. The new girl in town quickly sets her sights on Ben.

While their first few meetings are innocent enough, Madison wants more....

Nothing new to see here, it's your atypical nice person turns psycho after a brush off, and after the rejection, Ben finds his life slowly crashing down around him.

It's the age old tale, never stray off the path, and be faithful to the ones you love, because karma will come a knocking at your door, but it's been done to death, and so much better.

It's mercifully short though, and the two leads are affable enough, but your just sitting there waiting for the inevitable to happen, then it does, you leave the film, and never think of it again.

if you haven't seen any films from this sub-genre before, you may appreciate it more than I did, but you will certainly appreciate the other films in this category.

and there are plenty..
