#Y COMMITTED REVIEWS MOVIE#

In this movie, our lovely lady plays Susan Manning, a down-on-her-luck woman who applies for a job as a nurse at a sanitarium. She ultimately hits bottom-of-the-barrel with this straight-to-video trash, 'COMMITTED'. Jennifer O'Neill, once considered a goddess when introduced to the world in 'Summer of '42', went downhill with a string of B-Grade films such as the Chuck Norris film 'A FORCE OF ONE' and Lucio Fulci's 'THE PSYCHIC'. But as a Saturday afternoon stocking filler, it fit's the bill quite nicely. For me it's not that sort of material, nor would I imagine it would go down too well at the theater. If you've an hour and a half to spare and you see this appear on Cable, then I would defiantly recommended you sit down and give it a watch. True, it is not perfect but having said that, it is nonetheless more than acceptable. Levey deals us with a pretty well told tale. There are no big scenes here, no chases or 'heart in your mouth' suspense.

It many ways, this movie reminds me of some of horror/suspense movies from the 60's and 70's, albeit sans blood. The main disappointment was the fact that the film came to an end rather than a crescendo, but having said that it was nice to see the film did come to a fit and proper conclusion, leaving no-one in any doubt as to the final outcome. William Windom plays his part well, as the always ever so suspect Dr Quilly, whilst Robert Forester and Jennifer O'Neill both turn in nicely edgy performances the film requires. Based on the preface given at the start of the movie, this is a game of 'spot the real loony' amongst the assembled cast.

By no means a superb movie, it does however have several moments of good suspense. Just how does a nurse 'accidently' commit himself to a mental asylum? Well, the answer is provided early on in this interesting little movie, and from then on it begins to twist it's way to its perfunctory conclusion.
