Comments: I'm not sure why All the Boys Love Mandy Lane has never been released in the US (I watched the UK region free import), but it's an enjoyable film worth a watch. Mandy Lane's solid look and competent direction (by Jonathan Levine, who helmed last year's great 50/50) really helps overlook the minor plot quibbles I had (notably, the twist and ending). I would have loved to see a straight-forward slasher that was all about survival and not consistently wondering who's going to be the twist (though, in all fairness, it was a decent surprise). Anyway, while the film's nothing special, All the Boys Love Mandy Lane is a fun movie that deserves a stateside release.
