Should've been a short film
5 April 2020
I came to this movie pretty hyped up due to it's great critical acclaim but it doesn't go all that impressing as critics are claiming. The acting is great, the dialogues are pretty raw and well written too. Directing-wise it pretty much works like any generic Indie film in 2020 (the style reminded me a lot of Eighth Grade). This is another movie that intends to talk about an important matter and portrays it in a super realistic way, but at the end you realize it doesn't really say anything about that subject that actually stands out. I do think it brings up some really interesting questions about abortion and misogyny, but nothing that hasn't been done before. Needed to be way way shorter, then I guess it could've worked better for me (and that's coming from someone who likes slow-paced movies!). Probably won't be re-watching it, but I wouldn't discourage you not to see it though; if you're curious go for it, you might enjoy this more than I did.
