I love a good murder mystery. Unfortunately, this isn't one. It's not dreadful, but it's very predictable.
The majority of the characters are unlikeable. The brother's fiancée and her pals are all stereotypically vapid, money-hungry mean girls. They're downright rude to the main character, whom they've only just met. This is all contrived to colour your view of the main suspect, but it is too obvious. I love a red herring as much as the next murder mystery fan, but the screenwriters overdid it here.
I worked out who the killer was early on, but I stuck with it to see how our heroine pieced it all together.
The redeeming feature for me was the twist at the end, which I didn't see coming. For that alone I gave this film 6/10.
