Sexy Evil Genius

This movie wants to be taken seriously, wants to be considered clever and original but believe me, it is is not. The lead character Nik is as a ugly, vile she beast that you may ever have the displeasure of witnessing. Why couldn't they at least hired someone that is somewhat attractive? The plot drags, and it sucks. This movie sucks, and so do the people that like this crap. Did I say how f'ing ugly the main character insane bitch girl is? And she looks like she stinks too. Some people just exude stink, like this no talent hack. Save your time, and skip this movie. If it has a video game equivalent, it would be the atari version of et buried in huge desert.

Nikki gathers around at a bar all her previous lovers (including a girl) and they get there before her arrival so they have a chance to know better and everyone talks about the adventures that they had with Nikki. Finally she comes but not alone, but with her fiancé who manage to get her out of the hospital and get away with a murder because she was at that time mentally insane. Soon all find out the real reason why are there and Bert is about to see the real face of the woman who is about to marry. A good idea and opportune moment to make a good movie but unfortunately it fails. The whole action takes place at a table aside from the flashback scene the ending and the ones in the bathroom. In rest all talking and nothing happens.

Well the title basically tells you what it is about, OK, sorta in a strange sort of way. Out of the blue a "friend" calls up three of her friends she has not seen in a long time (10 years the longest she hadn't seen) Well, Nikki (Katee Sackhoff) is the SEG that has put a plan in motion with these three "friends" I use the term loosely since it is obvious they are all ex-lovers. So the plot unravels as the "friends" were all given sporadic times to arrive so they would get to know each other before the SEG arrives. But by this time, they are all trying to figure out what her plan is. This movie takes place solely in a bar, with some well used flashback scenes to explain the back stories of their connections to Nikki. So what is her plot? What evil scheme is she up to? Is she really just there to announce she is getting married to Bert (William Baldwin) or is there something more sinister in mind? Questions you will find out if/when you see it (you all know i don't give spoilers) The acting was actually darn good as the small crew had great chemistry. I especially liked Miranda (Michelle Trachtenberg). She played a take no crap b*tch very well. The script was written well, and the stories between Nikki and each of her guests were different enough to keep the ball rolling to just how crazy Nikki is or isn't. Or just a SEG. I can say I do recommend this movie, although this is a movie you will most likely only watch once. Nobody has rated it yet on IMDb, so I will be copying mine over there I guess and be the first LOL. Enjoy 5.2/10

The movie is very cleverly written. Three of Nikki's former lovers are brought together with no clue as to why. Through the sharing of their past experiences with her, they try to piece together her reason for their meeting. It's done in such a way that you are constantly draw possible conclusions and then throwing them out, only to bring them back once you learn something new. The comedy is clever and not overly goofy. The drama helps you connect with some characters while making you nervous about others. It makes for a thrilling mystery that's not too heavy, but still heavy enough to make it thrilling. I was surprised multiple times while watching this movie. I think that's what I liked the most about it: it wasn't predictable. Definitely a good movie.

I actually think this was a great movie. The plot twists with the best of them, taking the emotional load with it. In the same vein as other movies of its kind such as My Dinner with Andre and Before Sunrise, Sexy Evil Genius was superbly brought to life through the power of the actors and the dialogue alone. It's pretty tough to keep things in a movie such as this both unpredictable and believable. We don't know what's going on inside the minds of anyone and neither do the characters in this story. Yet we have these customs, these social tools used to interact with people to get through day to day life predictably. We see this play out as strangers meet and talk and get to know each other. These customs begin to break down and become useless as someone stops following the rules. The characters are left with rapidly changing speculation and mounting anxiety as the story plays out. I had just two problems with the film. One where a firearm's barrel was touched directly by the skin not even a minute after it was fired more than once. The other when a woman who was viciously assaulted by a large angry man was left without even a bruise. This is a definite must see for anyone who enjoys some good drama where the action is primarily expressed in words. One final note, I'm happy to see that homosexuality in film has reached the point where no matter whether people enjoyed the film or not, it's not thought abnormal enough to be worth commenting on. A normal, acceptable part of our culture :)

I did not know what to expect going in to this movie it had a great cast of actors i have grown to love since i was young so i thought i would give it a shot. You never really know what is happening throughout the entire movie but it does keep you gripped and entertained and really is a bit of a thrill ride. this movie was never going to win any awards but it really is a good watch and i did enjoy it. apparently i need ten lines of text but i think this is one of those films that you more that you describe it the more it ruins the experience, the best way to watch this is with little or no knowledge of what its about so enjoy.

So I watched this with my partner and discovered it took 30 minutes until I realised its a go nowhere thriller that's going to fizz at the end. At the 30 minute mark leaving the lounge room to escape to the fridge for a little more excitement I discovered a block of chocolate, at this point I found the highlight of the movie was not watching it. Returning to the couch more comfy that a warm hug from mother Theresa I plunged into the abyss of boring dialogue pro lapsing the many thoughts of sleeping. As I discovered a ipad handy I found candy crush saga totally rocked my world at level 42 then I turned to the movie and frowned. As the movie came to the end I was relieved more to the disappointment of the story line. If you suffer from insomnia this is the cure for you ! Bloody awful. Get your deck chairs out sit in the backyard, make sure it's midnight and cold outside and watch grass grow for something more exciting P

What a fun movie to watch and try to figure out what is about to happen! The entire setting (until the very end) takes place at one table and 'the ladies room' in one bar. The characters are distinct and the conversation is clever and at times mysterious. Just what is Nikki up to?? You will have to see this movie if your are curious. Each actor gives a power performance and their interaction will keep you watching. I do not want to offer up any of the plot line because when I watched this movie I had no idea what it was about. It's one of those flicks (in my opinion) that makes you feel like saying - "That was good" at the end. What you think one moment about Nikki will change numerous times during the story! I only gave 9 stars because I found the ending a bit hollow.

The other guy that reviewed this film as a disappointment is way off the mark in my opinion. The first scene didn't bode well it felt like the plot was going to be predictable so at that point I didn't expect to enjoy it. Luckily it's the only film I had so I watched anyway and despite that first scene the rest of the film was written perfectly and I can see how it drew such an interesting cast. I like mind games especially when they're executed with real intelligence along the lines of what some of the really good Japanese animators can pull off. The lead character in this certainly managed to provide that and again I have to differ with the other reviewer in that throughout the movie I thought she was getting sexier and sexier, I do love the crazies though. The cast played the parts very well and I was kept guessing until the very end but what impressed me most about this film is that I was left extremely satisfied with the outcome. I think it's a shame this movie has such low votes as I'm not an easy person to please film wise in fact I've avoided linking my google account to IMDb for over a year because I'm paranoid but I had to say something when I saw the bad rap this was getting. Tl;dr If you like intelligent mind f***ing movies/books/animation you'll definitely recommend this to a friend despite the slow start.

This movie is unworthy of the title "Sexy Evil Genius." There was nothing sexy, no real genius involved and the closest to evil was this chick's utter wackiness. Overall, the movie was boring. A bunch of people sit in a bar and talk old times about a crazy ex. The climax wasn't even close to thrilling. Instead of watching this movie, have a couple drinks and watch just about anything on TV. And since I need 10 lines to submit this review, here are some much better things to watch: "American Horror Story," "Hostages," "Sons of Anarchy," "The Black List," old "Law & Order" episodes (any of them) and "Homicide: Life on the Streets." Shoot, even "Gilligan's Island" was more entertaining!
