I only watched this to see Instagram hunk Leif Eric (Offerdahl) in a movie and while I didn't expect much from this Z-list production, It's actually slightly entertaining in how bad it is. 80 percent of this movie is basically pretty young women behaving poorly and sending the message that female empowerment means committing felonies and destroying lives. Throw in some murders for good measure. The story is not well done, the script is horribly amateurish and at times this is completely preposterous, which is when it becomes entertaining. The acting is all over the place, but the lead actress as Jennifer is incredible in how awful she is. For some reason she spends the entire movie smiling. Someone dies, someone overdoses, she commits crimes and she's smiling through it all. The smile never leaves her face. Her character, which I hope we are not suppose to feel sorry for, is written as an empty-headed woman who will do whatever she is told to do to fit in, including serious horrible crimes. This really is not boring, because it can not be taken seriously. As for Leif, his role is small and doesn't call for him to do much more than play the handsome boyfriend and appear shirtless in one scene. His acting isn't bad and some of the actresses are at least trying. The director needed to do a better job with his actors but given the material this fiasco couldn't be blamed on any one person.

Truth be told, when I sat down to watch the 2024 horror movie "Lethally Blonde", I wasn't harboring any grand expectations, given the movie's rather laughable title. But still, since it was a movie that I had never seen, nor actually heard about, and with it apparently being a horror movie, of course I opted to sit down and watch what director Dylan Vox and writers Bryan Dick and Scotty Mullen had to offer, aside from a movie with a stupid title.First of all, I have to state that "Lethally Blonde" is a thriller, and not a horror movie, as I was lead to believe. So don't sit down to watch the movie, believing you're in for a horror experience, you'll only find yourself sorely disappointed.The storyline in the movie was okay. I mean, it was a watchable movie, and it was actually entertaining enough for what it turned out to be. At least, I was pleasantly surprised, as I had no particularly high hopes for the movie. But writers Bryan Dick and Scotty Mullen proved to be capable of putting together a fair enough thriller, if you enjoy a young adult campus-life thriller.I was not familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, most of whom were women. I will say, though, that the acting performances were fair."Lethally Blonde" is a movie that you watch once, then forget about entirely, and never return to watch a second time.My rating of director Dylan Vox's 2024 thriller "Lethally Blonde" lands on a four out of ten stars.
