Slow Getting Starter


It starts as a slow burner but gets moving and isn't a bad watch. No Oscar will be won, but I enjoyed it.

I found it very unpleasant to watch at times and the husband was one of the most annoying characters of all time - a weak, emasculated, sniveling, cowardly, pathetic fool who breaks down and cries like a child when intimidated. He reminded me of the character Bjorn from 'Speak no evil', which was also a very unpleasant and infuriating movie to watch.

Men being weak and literally crying under stress seems to be getting normalized lately - I've seen it in at least 3 or 4 movies just this year alone. The movie did have some good parts and I liked the Red Caps. But it was also absurd and inconsistent, like the guy getting shot with a shotgun point blank and he just carried on with the cleanup with his arm in a sling instead of bleeding out to death.

6/10 for me and won't be watching again.
