Don’t Waste Time Watching P2

P2 is a film with a short name and a short plot. The entire movie surrounds this girl who works in the mall. She has bags of Christmas gifts and happens to be the last person to leave the mall. The security guard, who has a fetish for this girl decides to keep her there by doing something to her car where she could leave. All of the exits and entrances were locked down.
This film was stupid and annoying. It is an impossibility since they don’t just have one security guard at the mall after closing. Anyway, I was just very irritated with the stupidity of this film.
Wes Bentley portrays the demented security guard. He was the boyfriend in American Beauty. He is a great actor but for some reason he chose to be in this film…probably for the money. It is a shame to see such a talent go to waste. Rachel Nichols portrays the girl that he traps in the mall. She is very annoying and I routed for her to be kiled. I fast forwarded throughout most of it hoping at some point it would get better. But Rachel’s whining got on my nerves and I couldn’t continue listening to it.
P2 refers to the area that the girl’s car was parked and the area that the security guard’s office was. The film didn’t do very well and it isn’t surprising why. I would have demanded my money back if I saw this in the theatres. I happened to see it on cable. Just don’t waste your time watching this film. It is horrendously ridiculous or stupid.
