The Shape of Things

THE SHAPE OF THINGS (2003) - June 20, 2004 (S)
Paul Rudd and Rachel Weisz are excellent in this film by Neil LaBute. Paul Rudd in particular was excellent as a character who undergoes numerous transformations throughout the film. The ending though, was kind of cheesy in that it basically revealed the movie to be In the Company of Men in reverse. Not that I didn't like it -- I certainly didn't see it coming, and I thought it was a pretty cool way to end the movie. But it does sort of put Neil LaBute's range into question. ***1/2
