DVD Reviews of If Someone Had Known
DVD Review: this gets me wondering........
Summary: 3 Stars
well first of all I feel everything in this movie happened too fast. First, she meets him at a dance, she declines his offer to have a dance with him. Yet, she goes on a date with him when he just pops up at her house. Next thing you know he's climbing through his bedroom window to have sex with her. She says no, but then stops refusing and sits there intrigued by his pretty eyes and his nice body as he undresses and climbs on top of her. Her macho dad finds him suspicious and her push over mom thinks they're in "love" and they get married. THEN the next scene she's having his baby and he beats her that same day. From then on after that it's a long resolution with Katie going on and on about how much she loved him. C'mon she was 18 right out of highschool he was probably her first real boyfriend. And he saw her as an easy catch with her innocence and naivety.She was so into her loser hubby that she couldn't see that nice cop Ed had a thing for her. Also I know it's typical with abuse victims but why didn't she say why she did it during the arrest?? It was so frustrating how she covered up for him and all she did was ralk about how much she loved him. She couldn't have been much older than her early 20's. When Jimmy went to bed after pointing the gun to her face, she should've grabbed their kid and went to her house and told her dad who was a cop. And why didn't her sister testify that she didn't tell because Katie was so distressed she was going to kill herself. Her dad also demeaned her mother and this is brought to the family's attention. I love Kellie Martin but her character in this movie was too naive and foolish, she was clearly using the judgement of a girl still in highschool when she married this guy and covered up for him afraid to tell daddy because he wouldn't love her. (her dad might have been in denial at first being that he feels if he isn't aware of a problem it doesn't exist,but there were bruises to prove she was truthful, and he already disliked Jimmy)Katie took things way too fast. She even looked like a little girl for God's sake when she had a child and one on the way. And the way the neighbor stood by and looked on was ridiculous. The attempt to portray her as heartbroken and madly in love also shows she's too young and naive to be in a marriage. I'm 17 and I wouldn't think I'm in love after one date, or let a guy have sex with me on the first date, let alone marry him shortly after highschool when I didn't even want to dance with him...let me just stop right here.
