"Miss Nobody" is a funny but very dark comedy. I am pretty sure it's a bit too dark for all tastes, but I liked the film's sick and twisted sense of humor. Additionally, the film seems to be strongly inspired by the wonderful musical "How to Succeed in Business Without Even Trying"...if it was written by a serial killer!
The film begins with cute Sarah (Leslie Bibb) applying for an executive job at her company. Sure, she fudged a lot of her resume, but you're pulling for the young lady because she's just so nice and spunky. However, her new job is very short-lived, as at the last second the job is given to another--and now he is Sarah's new boss. To make matters worse, he's a real jerk. When he tries to sexually assault poor Sarah, he falls and is accidentally impaled. Sarahs is not only saved but now she is given the job she had been offered.
Soon, Sarah is making a very good impression as an exec. However, inexplicably, one of her tough-as-nails coworkers announces that she KNOWS Sarah murdered her boss. Well, once again, this bad person dies accidentally.
Normal folks would assume this is all random chance. However, Sarah's convinced herself that this is all the work of her guardian angel...and that it would be okay if she sometimes helped him when people really deserved it. So, soon she's out helping the angel...and killing her way to the top of the company! Can she manage to avoid detection and live happily ever after?
As I mentioned above, I thought the film was very funny but with all the killing and mayhem, it might put off some sensitive viewers. Additionally, the film has a few unnecessary scenes that make it a rated R film--which is inexplicable. It easily could have been PG-13 and why they had to have one or two brief scenes with nudity and language, I have no idea. Well worth seeing and rather sick.
