Don McKay (2009 R)

   The movie stars Thomas Haden Church (Wings tv, Easy A), Elisabeth Shue (Hollow Man, Leaving Las Vegas), Rachel Harker, M. Emmet Walsh (Alice's Restaurant, Wild Wild West),  Melissa Leo (The Fighter, Frozen River), James Rebhorn (My Cousin Vinney, Far from Heaven), and Keith David (They Live, Platoon).
   The plot of the movie is Church goes home to visit an ex girlriend.  When he gets there things start going wrong and secret plots start to come out from the ex girlfriend, her doctor, and her nurse.
   This movie starts off well the quiet of Churchs character sets the tone of the movie very well.  One bad thing is the set seems small.  Church seems almost ready to hit his head on the set.  Over the course of the movie Shue gets creapier and creapier.  The secrets of the characters are revealed at a good pace.
   The climax of the movie is a little over the top.  I am rating this movie as a C+ or B-.  The tone of the movie and the acting is enough for me to recomend the movie despite the crazy ending.
