**Never fear... Miss Meadows is here.** This is not the film everybody was expecting. But not bad to try after coming to know it. It is a black comedy, about a young single woman, a substitute elementary school teacher who moved to a new neighbourhood. She has no limit for her imaginations. Her world was full of wondrous, but there's a little dark secret too. Later, when she comes to face a big hurdle, how she's going to handle her new boyfriend who is a cop and from there where it heads was revealed. It was a Katie Holmes' show. It was a short film, but she was always there, the camera always with her. I'm seeing her film after a long time. She looks a bit old for this role, but worked well. The supporting cast was okay though. That little girl from 'Girl Meets World, Ava, was good. The film looks okay for all ages, but slightly violent with killing and other crime exposing scenes. Especially it is not for young kids, despite the film theme looks a bit magical. So it should be PG13. A decent writing and direction. The whole film was shot within two and half weeks. Because the story was simple, that takes place in the limited enclosures. So the experience of watching it was like a television film, but it is not. You might have seen some of the similar films, but still it is worth a watch. Not deliberately going for it, though when you ran out of the options. _6/10_

Great watch, would watch again, and can recommend. This is great proof that Katie Holmes can not only lead and carry a movie, but has a wide range of acting skill. This movie is all about character work, or you could say it is character driven. Meadows is an extremely complex character that is shown, but without explaining to the audience what they're supposed to be looking for (a drain on movies that do this), some audiences might miss the nuance of the character as well as her psychosis. The movie reminds me of a more mellow "Mr. Right", or at least with more realistic values. And in this lies the problem, every bit of this movie could be true, and that tends to put in eight different categories that people don't find entertaining, mostly because it's too close to reality, and you normally watch movies to escape that. The movie is metaphor, for the need to stand and defend what is right wherever we stand, and the a representation of the juxtaposition between violence and the social expectations for women. A LOT of people are going to hate what this movie represents, but I feel that's just representative how awful our society is. This movie definitely fills a void in the industry, it's masterful, well produced, but as good as the writing is, the content just isn't going to be palatable for everyone.

**Although the main character is adorable, the movie just doesn't work the way it was intended.** I can't help but look at this movie with mixed feelings. On the one hand, I like the final result and I loved the main character and the overall concept of the script. On the other hand, I'm forced to consider that the film works poorly as a black comedy, doesn't have any funny (and I'm a fan of black humor) and would have been more interesting if it had been thought of as a drama, with some romance and mystery mixed in. The script starts from a good premise: a lovely young woman with old-fashioned tastes who seem totally innocent and above suspicion, but who, unbeknownst to anyone, is dedicated to cleaning the world of evildoers. The idea was good, but what the film does is turn it into something else. Miss Meadows is adorable, but she's not someone bent on fighting crime. She doesn't look for the bad guys, she simply crosses paths with them, and that's not what a vigilante does. Of course, she ends up being wanted by the authorities, as she herself dates the local sheriff, but she remains not an avenger or someone decided on doing justice. She doesn't act, she just reacts. In addition to this issue, which for me is essential, there are other details that simply work very badly, starting with the extraordinary formality between the two boyfriends who, despite having a relationship, continue to call each other Miss and Sheriff, and never address each other by their first name, in a register as personal as the one that mother and daughter adopt over the phone. Furthermore, the film lacks tension and dramatic impact: various crimes and deaths occur, but there is no real tension at any point. Ultimately, this is where the most surreal and strange of this film lies: in the naturalness and lightness with which everything happens, and in the way that sheriff seems to want to simply ignore the bride's behavior, which is worthy of a deep psychiatric analysis. Katie Holmes is the star of this movie. She's not an actress I particularly like, but I have to admit that she did a pretty good job here. She managed to endow the character with great charm and charisma, as well as having excellent dialogue and understated jokes, almost British in essence. James Badge Dale gives him very effective support, even though his character was very poorly thought out and written. Despite the actor's work and effort, the sheriff is too dumb to be credible. Jean Smart, Ava Kolker, Callan Mulvey and Graham Beckel do what they're allowed to do, but the movie isn't theirs to shine. Technically, the film bets a lot on the style and on the construction of an environment that oscillates between the old-fashioned suburban and the surrealist dystopian. Not everything works, but it wasn't all a complete failure either. The success in choosing filming locations and creating scenarios is quite evident, as is the very happy and accurate way in which the entire outfit of the young Miss Meadows was conceived and created. The cinematography works very well in general, with bright colors, a certain lightness that looks good, and that is only cut in the flashback scenes, in more washed-out tones and in a more tense environment. Personally, I would have liked to see darker, denser cinematography in the parts of the film where the central character is more obsessive, sick and manic. The soundtrack also plays its role in a satisfactory way and without major surprises.
