Justice served with a spoonful of sugar

Prim'n'proper school teacher Miss Meadows (a delightful portrayal by the adorable Katie Holmes) also just happens to be a vigilante who's dedicated to ridding the world of evildoers. Complications ensue after Miss Meadows falls in love with the sheriff (likeable James Badge Dale) of the small town that she's recently moved into.

Writer/director Karen Leigh Hopkins relates the enjoyably offbeat story at a constant pace, maintains an utterly beguiling quirky tone, nicely evokes a pleasant small town atmosphere, presents a neat array of colorful characters, and spices things up with amusing touches of wickedly funny dark humor along with a few surprisingly poignant moments. With her white gloves and socks, pretty dresses, black tap shoes, impeccable sense of grace and decorum, and persistently perky demeanor, Holmes as Miss Meadows makes for a charmingly kooky anti-heroine. Moreover, there are sturdy supporting contributions from Jean Smart as Miss Meadws' equally well-mannered mother, Mary Kay Place as cheery neighbor Mrs. Davenport, Ava Kolker as sweet little girl Heather, Callan Mulvey as skeezy ex-con Skylar, and Graham Beckel as creepy sexual predator Tony Weaver. Further enhanced by Jeff Cardoni's bouncy score and Barry Markowitz's bright cinematography, this film overall rates as a total idiosyncratic treat.

I'M DANCING TO YOUR ACCORDION

Miss Meadows (Katie Holmes) is described as a "Mary Poppins vigilante." She is very polite and precise in her speech. She is a first grade substitute teacher and not mentally stable. As fate would have it, she becomes the girlfriend of the police officer (James Badge Dale) investigating the killings. She drives an immaculate 1956 Nash and has flashbacks to a traumatic childhood experience, of which we get glimpses, until it is explained in the end.

For those who like quirky dark comedies, welcome Holmes. Remember "permanent is temporary" and "truth is relative." Miss Meadows loves to turn phrases. Sometimes it is not apparent, so watch this production when you can pay attention to the dialogue.

Guide: Sex scene. No f-bombs or nudity. People who liked this film might also like "Violet and Daisy."

Good role, not so good script

I'm happy for Katie Holmes that she got a role, that might seem one sided or one dimensional on the outside, but is actually pretty meaty on the inside. And she has fun playing that character obviously. Unfortunately the movie or rather the script itself is not so good. It can't keep up with the pace and quality of the character.

It's a weird movie nonetheless and it's very violent while innocent looking. If you don't mind that split, which actually makes the difference to other movies, you will enjoy this. It's not about being right (though you couldn't argue the values),but about how or if one should act upon those values ... Not that the movie will leave you thinking too much ... It's supposed to be entertainment after all
