Résumés(1)
Tessa Connover (Katherine Heigl), is barely coping with the end of her marriage, when her ex-husband, David (Geoff Stults), becomes happily engaged to Julia Banks (Rosario Dawson) - not only bringing Julia into the home they once shared but also into the life of their daughter, Lilly (Isabella Rice). Trying to settle into her new role as a wife and a stepmother, Julia believes she has finally met the man of her dreams, the man who can help her put her own troubled past behind her. But Tessa's jealousy soon takes a pathological turn until she will stop at nothing to turn Julia's dream into her ultimate nightmare. (Roadshow Entertainment)

Je n'avais pas vu de thriller depuis longtemps et, dans le cas de Rivales, j'ai été intrigué par le casting, qui s’est finalement révélé être l’atout numéro un du film. Katherine Heigl, en particulier, tire son épingle du jeu. Je crois qu'elle a accueilli le rôle de Tessa avec grand enthousiasme, car il lui a donné l’occasion de se désassocier de son image de blonde douce et romantique, voire aussi de son rôle récurrent dans Grey’s Anatomy. Rosario Dawson est à la hauteur, tandis que les rôles masculins sont là pour meubler, rigides ou parfois presque inexistants. Un film correct et pépère qui satisfera les gens sans attente particulière.

If it weren’t for Katherine Heigl, who was playing the psycho really great, this movie would suck. On the other hand I think this kind of thriller will be appreciated more by women rather than men. It’s a typical chick flick with everything that entails.

I was quite excited about the cast of the movie because both Rosario and Katherine are beautiful women. But Rosario doesn't really showcase her acting abilities here, and I feel like she's the one who's dragging down the movie a lot. Of course, after the screenplay itself, which doesn't have anything to surprise with and just follows the classic boring paths.
