With the release of the new drama-thriller movie, "The Perfect Guy" holds number one as the box office hit nationwide. It was declared the box office winner even though it's a typical suspense film that seemed to be a familiar story to many.
The movie trailer features a lovely, normal woman who gets engrossed with an attractive, perfect man only to find out he's a dangerous sociopath. It is typically compared to any other psychopathic, stalker flick films.
But, in an article on The Mary Sue, this movie is a bit different with the others. It is obviously a bit pretentiously artistic and canny into the depths of it. Well, the styles were nicely executed making it to be enthralling.
With that being said, Leah Vaughn (Sanaa Lathan), a lobbyist who hooked up with the 'way-too-perfect' Carter (Michael Ealy) and backlashed from her 'nearly perfect' ex-boyfriend, Dave (Morris Chestnut). According to an article on Chicago Tribune, nearly perfect and too perfect are two different, lethal words which will be explained in the movie.
Basing on the surveys done before the scheduled release, "The Perfect Guy" earned an estimated total of $26.7 million or about 50 percent more than critics had predicted. Artsbeat reported that the movie used $12 million for the making which received deficiently low reviews. But it turned out the other way around.
"The Perfect Guy" is all about the complicated love story of Leah being involved with a dangerous man after breaking up with his ex-boyfriend. At first, she thought the guy was beyond perfect. Sooner or later, she figures out that he was not. Leah will break up with him after Carter beats up a man to death just for talking to her in a gas station.
But Carter will go along his way to make up with her, in a way that's beyond the usual and normal things to do. The man he first thought was perfect for her becomes the man whom she was afraid of.
And since the perfect guy turns to be the dangerous one, people especially women can learn from the story about the kind of guy they should stand up with. The 'perfect' guy is too good to be true.
