- FigueiragamesJuly 1, 2025A big plot twist in he end a little slow for me
- Kevin WardJuly 1, 2025One of those films that exists purely for the [spoiler]. Characterizations are razor thin. We barely get any information or backstory beyond the fact that this couple (Daisy Ridley and Shazad Latif) has a marriage that has grown stale with each side harboring some resentment towards the other. But when their daughter lands an acting role along side a famous actress Matilda Anna Ingrid Lutz, Ben (Latif) begins to seek a relationship outside of his marriage. Despite the lack of characterization, I still enjoyed it quite a bit. It’s sleekly shot. In particular, I liked the look of the period piece production that the daughter is starring in. I did predict how the finale would play out, but enjoyed it nonetheless. A breezy good stream at home flick.
- fraggle67May 9, 2025A Lifetime movie style story with an elevated script and a great twist ending.
- RyezooMarch 15, 2025I feel like I didn’t watch the same movie as everyone else. I thought this was pretty bad. Unlikable characters and a ending that did nothing for me. For a short runtime, tough watch.
