I liked it. It kept my attention from start to finish. That's not an easy task for a story that takes place in one location...in this event, in a house, and generally in the kitchen and living room. Also, only four characters. Yet it didn't get boring or drawn out. I was a little puzzled by Molly's apparent attempt to seduce her husband in the beginning of the movie. It wasn't clear if she was doing it to keep his mind off of her nervousness, or if she wanted to relieve her own stress. But it didn't seem to fit with someone that hated her husband and intended to kill him. I thought there was very good acting by all involved, and as a matter of believability, I think that there have probably been murders committed for lesser reasons than abuse. It was nicely paced, and seemed shorter than the running time. It wasn't extremely violent, or full of gore. .It was just another day in the life of a bad relationship. One with an unexpected, but not surprising ending. It's harder than it might seem, to commit an act like this, and retain your composure, or even your sanity. "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?"
