The Last of Sheila - 8 stars out of 10

The Last of Sheila - 8 stars out of 10

At first, I didn't care for "The Last of Sheila." I was having a lot of trouble keeping all of the characters in order; however, once the movie's first twist occurred and it spiraled into a new direction, I was hooked and wondering what could possibly happen next! This film is reminiscent of Hitchcock, showing you just enough to let your imagination fill in the rest of the grizzly details. The well-crafted screenplay keeps a sense of believability throughout the film and reveals enough clues in the beginning of the film that an audience member could solve the puzzle before the characters in the film "if they are SMART enough." Although I don't enjoy the story as much as Ten Little Indians or Clue, it has the same sensation. If you're discouraged at first, it really picks up after a slow start.
