This is one of the strangest movies I've seen in a while. On one hand it is very clearly a Hollywood movie, filled with Hollywood people. But on the other the whole thing plays more like a soap opera. Like a whole season of a soap opera that was edited down to a movie runtime.
I think every scene has a shocking revelation, or big twist, or dramatic confession. Every time you think you know what is going to happen with the rest of the movie, that whole thing either plays out in 5 minutes or the opposite happens.

Are you a sufferer of TSB (Twist Seeking Behaviour)? Then this is the movie for you.

This was surprisingly good. Blake Lively kills it, she steals the movie. Anna Kendrick is great too. The are a lot of good laughs and the plot is interesting. Definitely worth a watch.

I went to see this movie expecting to see a serious movie similar to Gone Girl. Well, it turned out it was a comedy! Nevertheless the movie was good.

The Crazy Rick Asians guy wasn’t so good but this should’ve been expected since this is his 2nd movie.

Blake Lively has a potty mouth but considering she’s married to Ryan Reynolds ... Her outfits were awesome and I swear I saw a nipple when she was wearing that “mansuit” at the cemetery scene. Be on the lookout. Acting-wise - she killed it!

Anna Kendrick was funny as usual.

For the book purists - I haven’t read the book yet but I overheard that the movie didn’t quite end like the book. I don’t want to leave spoilers so I will leave it at that.

And for the movie itself - it was funny, even at the most dramatic scenes, without ruining it. It had a lot of turns and twists. As usual some were predictable but isn’t this part of the fun trying to guess what would happen?

Go see it and have fun for couple of hours!

With too many twists to count “A Simple Favor” is as campy and entertaining as one might expect.

7.5/10

I wasn't expecting so much humor, but I felt it really worked for the film. A good mystery, although predictable about halfway through the film. But again, since this wasn't purely just a mystery, it worked well. Blake Lively was such a perfect psychopath character, and Anna Kendrick as 'that mom's character. In the end, a movie worth seeing, and provides many unexpected laughs.

I really enjoyed this one. It kept me guessing with it's twists and turns. Lately it's been hard to find movies that wouldn't be awfully predictible and this one for me - wasn't.

I remember seeing the trailer for this movie in the cinemas and I told myself that this is a must watch for me. It looked really dark and mysterious like Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train. Having seen the movie though, it was lighter than the previous movies mentioned. Anna Kendrick adds her quirky to it in a very good way. And Blake Lively... well... she was amazing and such a woman crush.

I'm the type of viewer who tries to guess things in the end and so far, I had it almost figured out but the twists near the finale just threw me off. Don't know if it's a movie I'll reach out for to watch again but nonetheless, it was a good watch!

I had high hopes for this movie since it has two of my favorite people in it but I was still surprised by how great the movie was. Funny, smart and elegant both in cinematography and writing, it’s just amazing. I won’t stop recommending it.

This was my experience exactly! I couldn't resist Kendrick and Lively working together, and in a mystery! I thought it was awesome, loved the ending and the aftermath, and I have finished not 5 minutes ago and already recommended it to 4 other people!
