Char and I ended up seeing A Simple Favor instead of The Predator and I for one do not regret that decision one bit. I don't want to compare it to the last thriller we saw because that one was just too stellar and different, but A Simple Favor was also very unique and had some shock value included as well, albeit for a different reason. The plot was mostly unpredictable, again for different reasons, but char and I did correctly guess at how the antagonist was going to get their comeuppance. I say antagonist because there's no real villain, just a whole lotta moral gray area. Blake Lively's performance is exceptional, but Anna Kendrick was the knockout here. I've never seen her play a character like this and I totally bought her in this role. Their chemistry is fantastic and the movie is littered with a surprising amount of comedy, so fun for the whole family (don't bring the kids).
