"Who the hell are you?" "I'm every little girl you ever watched... touched... hurt... screwed... killed!" Patrick Wilson plays Jeff, an urbane thirty-something with a cool apartment, a great job, and a penchant for underage girls; photographing them and... who knows what else? He meets gawky fourteen year old Hayley (Ellen Page) in an internet chat room where they banter flirtatiously before agreeing to meet. She wears her little red hoodie in what seems to be a parody of the fairytale and talks to him about all those pretty models he takes pictures of. Unfortunately for Jeff, Hayley isn't quite as naive as she appears, "Do you remember what I said about not drinking anything you didn't mix yourself? That's good advice for everyone." She suspects Jeff of dodgy dealings; her father's job has given her access to drugs and books on anatomy. Now she's planning an operation which will ensure that he won't be bothering girls for a while. While we've all fantasised about dealing out some vigilante justice (haven't we...?) this movie may find you rooting for the "wrong" person as Hayley mercilessly attacks Jeff. Ellen Page is unbelievably convincing as a giggly teenager. She's equally convincing as a cold and merciless avenger. Not only that, but she has a wicked sense of humour, as she buys cookies at the door with the words "Uncle Jeff loves his girl scouts."
