The Wife is an Idiot
13 October 2007
Warning: Spoilers
SPOILERS IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE.

I can't understand anyone loving this movie. I can't understand the high rating it received.

Her husband is gone, and the wife assumed he left her without saying a word. What about his car, or his usual means to get to work? What about his office? What about him not packing a suitcase, or taking a thing? She should have called the police to report his disappearance, in case he was somewhere injured -- which he was! Even if he wanted to hurt his wife in the worse way, there was no indication that he wanted to hurt his daughters that way.

I hope the wife threw up because she realized what an idiot she'd been to assume he'd left her. I hope she's haunted by the idea that he might not have died instantly, that if she had called the police, and if they had investigated, he might have been found sooner, perhaps even alive. Even if he hadn't lived, maybe he could have said goodbye to his daughters.

If I were the DA, I'd charge that idiot wife with something!
