Lando R Carece de mais profundidade, principalmente quando se trata de um sentimento de culpa tão forte, o fato em si é capaz de destruir um ser humano. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/06/25 Full Review Alain E It’s supposed to be heavy drama, but it’s full of cliches. In the first scene a woman raises from a bed and asks a man to leave. She then stands naked at the window as a family walks underneath scandalized. We then learn that she is the hostess at an upscale restaurant but when she asks to go on a cigarette break she cuts herself instead with a sharp rock. Then she appears to contemplate to jump from a cliff to the raging sea underneath. She then has sex with one of the rich patrons of her establishment, after she just cut herself! All the time there is a mysterious man who follows her. In the process we had learned that her sexual partner in the first scene was one of the kitchen staff, whom she ignores when she sees him. All that with Charlize Theron in the first 8 minutes. Regrettably, I will miss the casual sex scenes with Kim Basinger and Jennifer Lawrence. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/25 Full Review Jerod S Charlize, Lawrence and Basinger are in it for the family drama. The problem with this flick is it's all one big conflict...no resolution...just a bunch of adultery. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/29/24 Full Review steve d Melodramatic but effective. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Il racconto su più linee temporali di un personaggio rotto, a causa di un trauma da lui stesso procurato; riesce in parte a scorrere soprattutto quando arrivano quegli avvenimenti che ne modificano la trama, mentre è molto meno riuscito quando sono i dialoghi a farla da padrona. Si ha la costante sensazione però che tutti i personaggi siano intrappolati in una realtà che non li soddisfa, stretti dall'apatia della quotidianità non riescono a modificare in nessun modo il loro modo di essere. Non noioso ma nemmeno entusiasmante, questo dramma troppo spesso si adagia sull'espressività delle sue protagoniste femminili che ne elevano le interpretazioni ma che abbassano il ritmo oltremodo.
