Be careful where you park in ‘P2’

“P2” is a suspense/horror movie about Angela Bridges (Rachel Nichols), a workaholic who’s at her office finishing up some work on Christmas Eve. After she’s done with work, she goes to her car, which is parked in the P2 parking garage.

Her car doesn’t start, and the only person around is Thomas (Wes Bentley), the security guard. He tries to help her, but the car doesn’t start.

He invites her to join him for some Christmas dinner in the security office. Thomas turns out to be a psychopath who’s been stalking Angela for a while. Angela must find a way to get out of P2 alive.

The idea of the film is good, but the film itself is very cliché. Bentley’s performance as a psychopath is very good and believable.

The film does have its high points though, but they’re not enough to overcome the bad parts. Some of the parts are just not believable, and I don’t want to give anything away. So if you rent the movie, you’ll know what I’m talking about.

I like the idea, and it had a chance to be a very terrifying movie. Overall, I recommend saving your money, and waiting for it on cable.
