Hi,

I have just finished watching a movie called Derailed on demand through Comcast and it was amazing. I do not know how I have never heard of this movie before. Anyone seen this movie? What did you think?
 
We watched it last weekend. I thought it was pretty good. I am scared to say more because I don't want to spoil it for anyone! :)
 
I read the book upon which this movie was based last year and loved it! When I recently saw the movie version, I thought it was nothing compared to the book. If you liked the movie, check out the book--it was *really, really* good! :thumbsup2
 
Is this the movie with CLive Owen and Jennifer Aniston?
 

I saw it at the theater. It was good, but I was not overly impressed. It was a little disturbing. Maybe it is one of those movies that is better when you see it at home.

Was this book and movie based on a true stroy, or was the book just a good fiction book that someone decided to trun into a movie? I will have to check out amazon for the book though.
 
I frankly think it would have been only "okay" but it was redeemed to the status of just "good" by the twist at the end. I have seen Jennifer in a couple of movies and I have to say, she should have stuck to television. I don't think that she is a very good actor and comes across as sort of the same in every film.
 
We saw it in the theater. I thought it was ok but my dgf thought it was stupid. Clive Owen's character had to be the stupidist man on the planet.

I was hoping JA would show some TA.

I don't believe it was based on a true story--just pure fiction. There are a more twists in the book, and you get to look much deeper into the main characters (Clive Owen's especially). When I saw the film, Jennifer Anniston didn't seem to be 'Lucinda' at all.

It's a really good read. :)
 
After reading the description on PPV my DH thought it was a chick flick so we didn't watch it. Is it a chick flick?

Thanks. Maybe I will pick up the book.

It is NOT a chick flick. My husband got into this movie very well.
