No Good Deed - Oh, somebody got punished alright!

I know it's been awhile since I posted anything, but I'm baaaaaack!  There really hasn't been anything I was interested in seeing.  I refused to see Guardians of Galaxy and TMNT even though they were both box office successes.  I wasn't intrigued enough to go to the movies.  But, you know who'll get me to the theatre every...single...time?  IDRIS (My baby's Daddy) ELBA!!!!

Girl, I love that man of mine.  He is so sexy and such a fantastic actor.  I never saw more than a few episodes of The Wire, but I've seen every episode of Luther plus every movie he's been in the last decade.  Luther is one of my favorite shows, so I was ecstatic to see him again on the big screen playing a bad boy in No Good Deed.  Idris plays the scary irresistible narcissist very well.  I enjoyed every second!

Idris plays Colin, a convicted killer on the loose.  After confronting his ex, he gets into an accident and seeks help and shelter at Terri's house played by Taraji P. Henson.  Terri's husband, Jeffery, is away on a trip, and she's home alone with her two kids when Colin rings the doorbell and asks for help.  After a slow 30 minutes or so of information and little drama, ish hits the fan!  Terri fights for her life and the life of her kids, but Colin doesn't go down easily.

No Good Deed is quite exciting!  Terri is one bad chick.  Ya'll know how much I love a chick that will fight back and beat a bish down even if it is against my man.  The story is a little predictable, but there is a plot twist that you might not see coming.  I thought I had it figured out before walking into the cinema when I learned there was a plot twist, but I didn't.  It's a good one.  And ladies, there is a shower scene where you can see everything except Idris' goods, so we may never know the truth about what's really going on; if you know what I mean.  All in all, No Good Deed is a good movie to see with your girlfriends or on a date because in the end, somebody gets punished.
