Wow, what a performance. Bullock shows a wide range of emotions, and is especially great when she has to be subdued and yet still conveys so much. She elevates the entire movie.
But a great performance doesn't make a great movie. And with so many Netflix originals, there isn't much in the way of substance or story. That's definitely not the case here. The story keeps you invested and isn't predictable. So much happens with many moving parts.
The musical score doesn't necessarily stand out as something I would listen to, but it perfectly services the story. There are so many scenes where I notice the score subtly rising during a moment of tension or emotion. And speaking of, this movie is emotionally powerful.
I had a great time with The Unforgivable. It starts off a bit slow but continues to escalate with story, tension and emotion. (1 viewing, 5/15/2022)
