Frances, eine niedliche, naive junge Frau, die in New York ihr Glück versuchen möchte, findet in der U-Bahn eine Handtasche. Ohne zu zögern macht sie sich auf die Suche nach der rechtmässigen Besitzerin. Diese entpuppt sich als Greta, eine etwas seltsame Pianistin mit einer Vorliebe für romantische Musik und einem verzweifelten Bedürfnis nach Gesellschaft. Frances hat kürzlich ihre Mutter verloren und fühlt sich von ihrem Vater entfremdet; Greta hat ihren Ehemann verloren und ihre Tochter lebt weit entfernt. Die beiden werden schnell Freunde - aber diese Freundschaft offenbart bald dunklere Seiten, als Gretas Fixierung auf Frances eskaliert.

The beginnings a little clunky but it soon descends into a juicy psycho-thriller, reminiscent of those stalker movies that were prevalent in the 90's. Huppert is chillingly brilliant, closely matched by Moretz's put-upon girl in peril.
Isabelle Huppert and Chloë Grace Moretz are both great but the movie is kind of a drag. A few too many eye roll moments. The third act is interesting enough but doesn't make up for the first two acts.
_Greta_ is a familiar friend who comes to visit, and though she hasn't changed a bit, her outfit is new and stylish. I consider _Greta_ to be a tribute to the stalker films of the late 80s / early 90s (_Fatal Attraction_, _The Hand that Rocks the Cradle_, _Single White Female_) with all of the WTFs removed. Neil Jordan (_The Crying Game_) delivers a solid thriller that you'll like if you remember it's meant to be suspense and not horror.
I feel this film had a solid premise, but, it decided to fall into cheap thrills. It seems it has a lot to say, but its themes get muddy. The film has an ever so slight twist, which, is a nice pop in an otherwise lagging story--- but then, the ending is somewhat of a letdown. Skip this film unless there is simply nothing else to watch.
Lol what a creep. I like movies like this though, straight forward and easy to understand, not too detail heavy or confusing. Perfect for when you're doing something where you can't pay every ounce of attention to the movie and still come out feeling like you got the general gist of what happened.
