Critic Reviews for Mesmerized (My Letter to George) (Shocked)

All Critics (1) | Fresh (0) | Rotten (1)

Laughlin � um diretor de assustadora incompet�ncia, o que s� piora um filme cujo roteiro j� n�o prometia muita coisa. O resultado � uma produ��o que embara�a seu elenco e que poderia ter custado a carreira de Jodie Foster.

Letter to Jodie Foster: Part II. Dear Jodie Foster. What the fuck was Mesmerized (aka My Letter to George, aka Shocked)? You had a perfect track record with me until today! That's ok. In the same way that I forgave Eliza Dushku for Soul Survivors, and Sarah Michelle Gellar for Harvard Man, I shall forgive you for this
