Plots(1)
She's cute. She's loyal. She's psychotic. And, unfortunately for college freshman Sara (Minka Kelly) she's The Roommate. When Sara arrives at school, she finds new romance with Stephen (Cam Gigandet) and forms a fast friendship with her roommate Rebecca (Leighton Meester). What begins as camaraderie soon turns creepy, and Sara comes face-to-face with the terrifying realization that her new best friend is obsessive, unbalanced... and maybe even a killer! (Sony Pictures Home Entertainment)

A film that wants to be scary with things like pulling out a navel piercing, a kitten in a washing machine and tattoos!!! The horror... An utterly pointless take on the premise of a psychopath at work / in the neighbourhood / in a hotel… I certainly can’t recommend The Roommate, but at the same time, it’s not that terrible, it’s too well made for that.

I have to admit, I was rooting for Rebecca the whole time! Leighton handled the character of the crazy psycho with aplomb. The story may be simple and the ending rather far-fetched, but I was still riveted. The cast was great in my opinion! Excellent as a drama and a light thriller.
