After 36-year-old business lobbyist Leah Vaughn's relationship with longtime boyfriend Dave broke because he didn't want her to have children, she meets the charming IT expert Carter Duncan. He seems like the absolute dream man and is a welcome twist of fate. Leah's friends and family are thrilled too, as Carter takes loving care of Leah and her family.

After the dating phase is over, however, Leah discovers a violent side to Carter. His protective instincts take on gloomy traits, so that Leah breaks up the resulting relationship. But Carter does not let himself be turned away and promises to make her life hell out of jealousy.

criticism

At Rotten Tomatoes , 21% of reviews are positive, out of a total of 39 reviews; the average rating is 3.9 / 10. In the critical consensus it says: " The Perfect Guy threatens to drift entertainingly into the hackneyed, but in the end, fearfully, takes refuge in thriller clichés."

The film service judges: “A cautious thriller that makes use of police, horror and revenge films, with the staging about a stalker and his victim appearing over long periods like an instructional video about stereotypical role behavior without either side being particularly explored. "

Awards

At the Image Awards 2015, Michael Ealy and Sanaa Lathan each received nominations for Outstanding Actors in a Film.
