Perfect Stranger is a poor excuse for a suspense film. It starts off bad and doesn't get any better. The horrid Direction and Screenplay are laughable and the "acting" is what it is. Halle Berry is OK in the lead and Bruce Willis is incredibly wasted. Giovanni Ribisi is the standout, playing the (you guessed it) questionable sidekick. This movie is painfully slow and suffers from an embarrasing and down right stupid ending. A sad waste of talent.

(Especially "otherwise" because I'm akin to lesser-known and/or unconventional films and actors.) Back to the film, there were some nice touches here and there such as the pattern of people not turning out who …
