Miss Nobody (2010)
4/10
Kill your way up the corporate ladder!

Warning: Spoilers
Miss Nobody is another romantic comedy with gallows humour shoe horned in for the lols. In the first opening minutes, we have domestic violence played for laughs and a coming of age montage which sets our protagonist up as a serial killer waiting for her trigger, and her trigger just so happens to be the bad egg executives of the big pharma company she works for. Perfectly understandable.

What could have been a genuinely quirky combination of Tom Harris and Nicholas Sparks is let down considerably by stilted performances and TV pilot cinematography. It's kinda crap. Not much is memorable about Miss Nobody apart from it's premise. It's a film I'd rather remake than watch.

Miss Nobody falls somewhere in between quirky character study and film noir. It's a mess to be sure, but it does have some interesting elements and some effort is on display here. But the tone is all over the place, the acting is all over the place and either down to performance or writing, our protagonist is just not that charismatic enough of a person to be either engaging or sympathetic. It's a mildly entertaining film that is worth one watch and nothing more.
