Paul Byrnes Sydney Morning Herald 10/15/2019
2/5
What's strange is that anyone thought this movie was worth making. It's a thriller with no thrills, almost no action and even less tension. What it does have is a strong cast, but who wants to see good actors going to waste? Go to Full Review
Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times 09/09/2019
There remains some truth in advertising, especially when it comes to Rowan Athale's bizarre family thriller. Go to Full Review
Guy Lodge Variety 09/07/2019
Can't quite decide what kind of weird it wants to be: a loopy B-movie corkscrew ride, or an American Beauty-style suburban burlesque with Something To Say. Go to Full Review
Nadine Whitney Mr. Movie's Film Blog 09/17/2023
If the film sorted out what genre it wanted to belong to, the audience would be less confounded and considerably more engaged. Go to Full Review

...whatever flaws audiences could find with the film's tone, the impeccably committed cast keep the film afloat that you'll be too gripped to truly care. Go to Full Review

... shoots for the same psychological heights as Gone Girl but ends up hitting 13 Reasons Why levels of melodrama. Go to Full Review

Rosana B @RosanaBotafogo 21h 🥺🥴🥲😍😭🤯 7,5 "Sempre me pergunto, se soubéssemos toda verdade, teríamos menos medo ou mais?" Sempre me faço a mesma pergunta e tenho a certeza que se soubéssemos a resposta jamais viveríamos intensamente… Um firme que flerta com o sobrenatural e desemboca no abuso sexual, achei que seria mais um filme leve e fofinho, ganha contornos dramáticos, um simplesinho que entretém, com todas as suas falhas e imperfeições, torna-se cativante pelo plot twist... #film #films #cinema #filme #movie See more Alain E @AlainE 6d After 17 minutes we have met a girl who is pregnant by immaculate conception. Everything else moves extremely slowly, just to kill time and reach the predetermined length of an hour and a half. That’s the end of my endurance. See more Derek E. Dec 10 Good pacing, plot twist was revealed early (and predictable)I thought but otherwise I enjoyed the movie See more HMF B Feb 25 Good actors but the story does not know in which direction to go. Only at the end do you find out and by then it's too late to enjoy it. See more Sal D @JustTheLaw 12/12/2024 This is an unusual film but in a surprisingly good way. The performances were all commendable (not spectacular) but what makes this movie pop is the hard twist that I did not expect or catch on to until a few after that fact - the first act lulled me in pace and plot that when it pivoted, it took me a second to see the real arc of the story. See more Iamwhoi M @Shaboutiques 09/06/2024 Not the most thrilling thriller; but it's a good cast, and it's worth a watch See more Read all reviews
