The Ex, Oct 1 2003
By Clob Lane - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ex (VHS Tape)
This thriller is indeed extremely thrilling and very suspenseful. To say the least, it is very clichéd, but it does not take away from the extreme chills I got when watching this. Yancy Butler does an amazing job as the psycho Diedre, and I liked Suzy Amis in her sweet and innocent role. The scene where Diedre is lifting weights and Molly and David see her is very scary and got me very excited. The only thing I have to complain about is the fact that this film has too much sexual topic, and the lesbian doctor thing is quite annoying. Diedre seems obsessed with the idea! Overall, I'd say its worth three, maybe three and , but I wouldn't give it five. Suspense is good, Butler's performance is over-the-top and viciously excellent, but the sexual content for some reason bugs me in this movie.

Be careful whom you married...and divorce, Oct 28 2000
By Kendrik Lau - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ex (VHS Tape)
THe EX, based on a novel by John Lutz, revolves around a man played by Nick Mancuso, who is being stalked by his ex-wife, Deirdre, played by Yancy Butler. Of course, Mancuso cannot tell his current wife about his torrid past with Deirdre, but as Deirdre ingratiate herself to his wife and son, he finally put his foot down and told her to get out of his life. This made Dierdre ever the more determine to ruin him. And murder is just a mere inconvenience to her. Drowning men in bath tubs seems to be a routine activity for her."The Ex" is not exactly a huge budget suspense movie, but Yancy Butler is riveting in her gleefully wicked performance as Diedre. The rest of the cast is adequate, especially Nick Mancuso. Overall, this a movie you rent, not buy.

Better than the films it rips-off, Sep 19 2000
By Garry Messick - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Ex (VHS Tape)
Two words neatly sum up why this silly FATAL ATTRACTION/BASIC INSTINCT rip-off is better than the just-as-silly films it imitates: Yancy Butler. Glenn Close and Sharon Stone are simply no match for the intense level of comic ferocity Yancy generates with her truly terrific performance in THE EX -- she's the femme fatale to end all femme fatales. It's not just that she's pure evil, she's pure evil and she's lovin' it! She's exuberantly sexy and sinister and a lot of fun to watch. Which is a good thing, because other than the consciously (I think) campy script, she's the only thing this indifferently directed film has going for it. And since she's the only character with any life in her, you end up rooting for her to win, and are bitterly disappointed when she doesn't.
Listmania!
