Editorial Reviews: Amazon.co.uk pIn iPerfect Stranger/i, ace New York Courier reporter Rowena Price (Halle Berry) will do anything to get her story---even if it verges on the unethical. After her plans to out a US senator's homosexual relationship with an intern are thwarted, Price's next chance at a big scoop falls right into her lap. When her friend Grace (Nicky Lynn Aycox) is found murdered, the main suspect is revealed to be Harrison Hill (Bruce Willis), a philandering high-powered advertising exec with a very jealous wife./p pWith some help from her right-hand tech guru, Miles (Giovanni Ribisi), Rowena goes undercover as a temp at Hill's agency, where her own good looks are bound to draw Hill closer to her, taking her to the facts behind Grace's murder. No simple plot description can truly explain James Foley's (iAt Close Range/i) twisty, techy thriller. It begins with a false set-up, takes a whole other route, and makes a series of bizarre 11th hour revelations that not even the most seasoned viewer would predict. The always watchable Berry makes us root for a character whose methods aren't always the most scrupulous, and Giovanni Ribisi does a lot with the 'sidekick' role. Anastas Michos's cinematography gives Manhattan a slightly sinister glow of cool blue, appropriate to this tale in which nothing is what it seems, and trusting in someone is sure to cause regret---or worse. iPerfect Stranger/i may occasionally defy logic, but that is not likely to deter those hungering for a handsomely made, star-fuelled studio film with plenty of surprises./p

I'm so glad I did watch it. br / br /This movie is about an investigative reporter, played by Berry, and high profile advertising executive, played by Willis. The plot is very well paced with no lagging moments and was seamlessly acted by the cast. br / br /This is not the usual, predictable woman in jeopardy type movie. Predictability would have made it a complete yawn fest. Instead, the plot takes off relentlessly and culminates in a twist that will blow your mind. Also, there is more than one secret being kept. I can't say more as it might ruin the experience for future viewers. br / br /Grab yourself a copy of this brilliant thriller. br / What a brilliant thriller with some fantastic acting! February 23, 2009 Matthew Fletcher (United Kingdom) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful I am one of these people who go out and pretty much buy every Bruce Willis film there is! br /When I saw the trailer for this film back in 07, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. br / br /There seem to be many reviews about of people slating this film, if you don't like thillers then don't buy it, (I was actually nearly put off by the reviews, but then read the decent ones and got it anyway - because of my love for Bruce) if you do and love a film that makes you think deep all the way through and then gives you an amazing ending, they I suggest you get it! br / br /The film is based around three characters who, throughout, you learn more and more about, finding out thrilling secrets and plots, then to top it off, you get one massive clever twist at the end. br / br /A clever film which entales three actors who do a fantastic job with their characters! br / br /Don't read ANY spoilers, go into this film and enjoy whats to come! br / Wow what an ending December 3, 2007 S. Harris (Wales) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful I thoroughly enjoyed this film and would recommend it to anyone who likes thrillers. I think that I suspected nearly everyone of 'doing the deed' but the end was a real shocker! Get it you won't be disappointed. Reviewer from Laurencekirk, Scotland. November 14, 2007 Oldcodger (UK.) 2 out of 7 found this review helpful I thought this was a very good film. None of the previous reviewers mentioned about the history of her 'flash-back' relationship with her father, and that has to be built in to the part that Halle Berry played as Rowena. Combine that with all the blackmail from her friend who was poisened, Hill being the prime suspect, and later discovering that it was Miles who had actually carried out the murder, I thought the whole plot of the film was very good. Willis, Ribilsi and Halle Berry played the roles very well. I thought so anyway, not being an established critic. Had its moments.. July 19, 2009 Shena (Northern Ireland) "Perfect Stranger" is awesome for anyone who loves murder mysteries or thrillers. It had some really great twists and for me a totally unexpected ending! Halle Berry is brilliant in it and Bruce willis isn't too bad either. Defo worth a watch! Showing reviews 1-5 of 21 1 2 3 4 5 Next »
