A Disappointing Portrait
It was really good and then it fell apart
I have been excited to see this for months - finally out on MAX so I went for it - and the first hour was fantastic . They were both very good in their roles and the chemistry( or lack of ) was very well presented . It took the story of the two of them meeting and made it come to life , the filming was interesting and the general vibe felt spot on . The development in this first part for the characters was great and you really felt like you were being set up to be taken somewhere
And then ....
Then all the sudden the second half it's like the character development just stopped , very little connected together or made sense without background knowledge into the story as a whole , and then the last 20 min it was like "oh shoot we have 20 min better finish it " and no one could figure out exactly how .
The jump from being in an abusive relationship to being her own woman was instant and it all felt very juvenile and hallmark in the end .
Worth watching ? Yes for sure . Not great film but really could have been which made it more disappointing.
