Good actors and vibe but way too predictable, in my opinion. I had guessed that Sandra and Tom had allied straight from the beginning though, so at least that part had some interesting aspects. What I still don't get is why Madeline called the police on Max. She risked that Max would reveal her identity in revenge, exactly as she feared later in case of Sandra. So really not the best story.

I had no idea this movie existed until I stumbled across it on Apple TV. The cast looked incredible and I immediately had to turn it on. I had no idea of the plot or genre, but I was invested in checking out the movie. It was good, but not too special. It is well acted and there are various points in the script that was engaging, but I couldn't help but feel it moved too slow. It felt like a knock-off "Gone Girl" (I say that lovingly, as I love "Gone Girl"). In the end, I ultimately think it ended a smidge messy. Further point- I watched this having no idea it was A24, and many aspects suddenly make way more sense in how various aspects of the story are told to the audience. Not my favorite A24, but as I think with many of their movies, they will hit a specific type of viewer that will really love it. Rating: 2.5/5 - 7/10 - Worth Watching
