Movie Review

Grade: B- Not yet Academy Award winner Gwenyth Paltrow is Helen in Hush, a movie that takes the stereotype mother-in-law to the extreme. After marrying, Helen and her husband Jackson (Johnathon Schaech) move down south to repair his mother's house. His mother (Jessica Lange) appears nice enough, but that's only a false cover.
