Death She Wrote (2021 TV Movie)
5/10
Entertaining but lacking

Death She Wrote. Another obsession movie. Not too many slow parts, although not necessarily many exciting either. Paula Brancati as Mary did a good job of being the crazed assistant. You can't watch this with out thinking of the movie Misery. The "gaslighting" segments were a little stupid and exaggerated. The dinner with Kabongo's parents was rather bizarre yet entertaining. It reminded me of Coming to America.

I can't figure why the large mansion is set in the woods, but every other scene is in the city.

It seemed to take a little too long for Lila to see Mary's kookiness. There were a number of odd and tense situations that kept me intrigued. But there were also plenty of dumb situations that kept me annoyed. That boyfriend guy in the first half and Andrew Jones, what was their purpose?

Dumb climax. Her hands were tied and her feet were tied to the chair legs. But when the chair fell down the stairs, her legs weren't tied.
