Review of The Quiet

The Quiet (2005)
1/10
Worst movie ever
7 September 2006
This movie made me sick. The plot was horrible, the characters were horrible, and, worst of all, the dialogue was HORRIBLE. Dot's "thoughtful" character is really just a cover for the actresses inability to act. Elisha Cuthbert plays an amazing bitch of a teen but her attitude towards her father's lecherous behavior is sickening. And I can't believe an amazing actress like Edie Falco would lower herself to being seen in this movie. The dialogue between the characters is filled with lewdness and vulgarity and doesn't even register as thoughtful of intuitive. It's predictable and awkward. There's a scene where the cool-guy-who-falls-in-love-with-the-weird-girl (CLICHE!!) describes in full detail an erection he had. The language used is juvenile but the content isn't. I'm not sure who the writers of this awful story were trying to communicate with because the subject matter is too mature for teens and the language is too adolescent for adults. This movie was horrible and not worthy of even a straight-to-DVD label. I wouldn't recommend it to ANYONE.
