Lila And Eve
In a story that looks like a different kind of crime. The story tells of Laila, a sad mother in the wake of her son's death; in a shooting incident from a moving car. There is still a dark side to the loss of the boy, where Laila is still suffering from several roadblocks from the police to bring justice to her son. There is a woman called Eve urging Laila to take things in her hands to track the killers of the son. In the end, the two women soon embark on a violent pursuit of justice, where they are at the top of the drug traffickers' chain and their lives may turn to another, not innocent, turn.

Lila & Eve embraces its psychological thrills rather than action, but it never fully commits to what that decision entails.

Learning by doing, the avenging angels roll up on some thugs in a convenience store parking lot, infiltrate a hot dance club and home-invade a high-rise apartment; they also find time to wallpaper Lila's living room (Eve is an interior decorator, see).

The footage rolls to an ending that is satisfying and makes the time it takes to watch this crime thriller evolve worth the effort. Lila & Eve will someday be a great cable movie. For right now it is a compelling indie film.

There's no saving a high-voltage revenge drama that relies on selfies for its big reveal.

"Lila and Eve" deteriorates into a tawdry shoot-'em-up whose screenplay takes an ill-advised surreal twist that propels the movie deep into the ozone.

...tumbles off the rails long before the end credits roll.

Davis (who was an executive producer on the film) gives a strong performance, as if she were acting in one of those many prestige projects lighting up her resume. It's a noble try, but this dreck is beyond saving.

A mid-point twist is particularly ridiculous, and in an attempt to reconcile this turning point, the final act of the movie becomes a mess.
July 16, 2015
A standard-issue female vigilante thriller that's skillfully elevated by the performances of leads Viola Davis and Jennifer Lopez.
July 17, 2015
Davis (who also served as a co-producer) does her damnedest to make something of her character and while not even her undeniable gifts make anything of it, it is oddly inspiring to see her at least making the effort.

Alas, even a promising premise and a fine actress like Davis can't save an increasingly ludicrous plot. Justice may be served, but screenwriting logic? Not so much.
