One of my all time favorites.
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Nurse 3D revives the camp genre that is so often misunderstood, as evidenced by the negative reviews we see here. Some people just don't get it. They've written their reviews as if they expected to see a movie of high drama, pathos and some kind of serious message. That isn't this movie!On the other hand despite lots of nudity, some of it *very* graphic, Nurse 3D is hardly a sexy movie. It's a camp thriller and gore-fest that runs at a fast pace, unabashedly, self-consciously and with glee to a frantically gory ending with an intelligent twist in the closing scene. I'd say it lives up to its creators' aims admirably.
Saw Nurse 3D at least 10 times already and each time I loved it more! Nurse 3D is a thrill ride from start to finish and Paz de la Huerta is amazing in this movie! She really carries this movie and can play crazy really, really well. The supporting cast is awesome too!The director needs to be commended for doing what I think is a classic, I don't understand the hate for this movie. This movie deserves to be watched and spoken about, it is comedy and horror all in one. So please give Nurse 3D a watch and I know you will be glad you did.
Nurse (2013)* 1/2 (out of 4)Nurse Abby Russell (Paz de la Huerta) loves her job taking care of the sick and helpless but at night she likes to lure married men into her deadly trap. You see, this nurse loves to kill married men who cheat on their wives. Back at the hospital she begins training a new nurse (Katrina Bowden) and soon a deadly attraction begins.NURSE tries very hard to be a throwback to the 1970s grindhouse pictures but it falls well short on a number of levels. Well, to be honest, the film actually plays very much like a grindhouse film from the 70s because this here is pretty bad, has a very thin plot and makes up for that by offering up a lot of nudity and gore. It seems people think if they make a movie campy that they're doing it right but in my opinion campy films, that actually work, were done by people trying to make a serious movie but failed and the end result turned into camp.The problem with NURSE is that it's way too goofy to be taken serious as a horror movie and the goofy moments just aren't all that funny in order for it to work as a spoof. The problem with NURSE is that the story is downright stupid and never really makes too much sense. I mean, she kills married men for a reason, which I get but the screenplay then gets all caught up in this deadly relationship with the other nurse. All of this just leads to a bunch of dumb scenes that really don't add up to much. Another problem is that the humor just isn't all that funny and it really comes across as silly and stupid and especially the stuff with Niecy Nash.Both de la Huerta and Bowden don't add much performance wise but I thought de la Huerta was at least charming in her own ways. Judd Nelson also appears briefly and we get some nice supporting performances but these certainly don't save the movie. NURSE features quite a bit of nudity but it's pretty much topped by the non-nudity of Bowden appearing in full shower shots where she's wearing panties or shorts....in the shower? Either way, NURSE tries hard but falls well short of being a good movie.
Nurse is the tale of Abby Russell (Paz de la Huerta), a kind, caring nurse by day, but whose serious daddy issues surface during the night as she goes and hunts men who she sees as unfitting to live. A pretty basic plot for a decent slasher smut film. Nothing wrong with it. From that you can except lots of gore, lots of skin, lots of gorgeous women covered with blood.Except we get very little of any of those. The slasher stuff? Uninspired. I've seen more convincing death effects in slasher parodies. Sure, there are a couple good scenes near the end, but it lacks conviction. Like they were only going through the motions. The gorgeous women and the skin? Barely there. But that's what you get from making an R rated slasher smut film. Go all the way or go home. Stuff like this is just plain embarrassing.As a whole the film feels like its makers weren't really trying. Paz de la Huerta as the main actress seems to be having fun in most scenes, but she simply doesn't have to acting talent to convince us that she's really all that loco instead of just acting. You don't buy the character. The side characters are all either forgettable, clichéd, stereotypical or all of the above.Nurse is a smut film that tries to remain clean. And if that idea doesn't make you shiver in disgust, I don't know what will.
