Swallow Reviews
Seemingly goes along in a well directed manner howevet he lead is unbearable unlikeable and plain annoying the ending is so bad with absolutely no payoff Waste of a good premise...disappointed don't waste your time
Unsettling and very sad. Movie requires you to give your attention and empathy to it's character. Class and racial difference in behaviour and ability to sympathize explored well. Haley Bennet's performance is very moving.
It was just kind of boring. It was nicely shot and the acting was great, but the plot wasn't there.
A provocative piece of cinema. About the heavy pressure of being the perfect wife. Eerie and strangely calm to start with, we see the perfect life unravel. Odd moments abound. Some too odd to ring true. Ends up looking like it might be a thriller. But that isn't what we signed up for. Mostly effective.
This is not a horror movie at all. I wouldn’t even call it a thriller. More like a psychological drama and a sad one at that. Hits home for anyone who feels worthless or who emphasizes with people who do. I felt sad for the protagonist. Worth a watch for sure - but not a horror.
It was weird but watchable ✌🏾
The film is like watching paintings of a girl who doesn't want to follow the consumption of the world, very artistic movie , I enjoyed watching it ,it worth a watch
Takes on traumatic and thought provoking topics with ease, but never really hammers those issues home.
Tantas coisas abordas nesse filme que precisam ser discutidas, porem mais uma vez a sociedade mostra que prefere enterrar a cabeça em um buraco e fingir que não está vendo nada. Exelente atuação Haley Bennett
Not for the faint of heart ,and stomach, but an amazing and thought-provoking film nonetheless
Intelligent thriller reminiscent of Side Effects
I always wonder why these troubled people never have friends or family. The wardrobe and make up style was so bad. So you live in a lovely home but don't have a cleaning service? Swallow this.
Great acting, writing, cinematography, and music. I really felt for the main character, alone in the world.
A striking concept perfect for a thriller. There's a deepness to the characters that gives us much to ponder as the film masterfully layers unexpected tension. However it's probably only worth watching once.
Pretty visuals. But there's not much happening with the story. Slow, quiet, simple. I wanted more drama and tension and depth.
This movie is so incredibly important. It asks the question what freedoms are you willing to give up for comfort? How small can you make your world before you go insane? It shows the truth behind a patriarchal system of greed and those who enable it. It shows how it hurts not only woman but also sets men up for inevitable grief and failure. It shows the generational trauma loneliness caused by sexual assault in a fundamentalist family. It ultimately gives birth to character so fundamentally broken from a system does allow her to take up space, make mistakes, or be a human being at all.
I gave it 1 star because the acting was very good. Would've given it 4 stars had the ending not been feminist trash.
The main character is a perfect example of modern Feminism: selfish, self-absorbed, lacking in morality, and frivolous. First half could have been a good horror movie. Instead? Turns into a real nightmare with a bad message for women everywhere.
This movie is garbage on so many levels, tries to be deep and ends up just being some of the cringiest trash available.
the kind of movie where the ending really makes the whole movie make sense. very poetic. acting is fantastic. it touches on a lot of women's issues in society. domestic entrapment, reproductive rights, rape and the aftermath. 10 out of 10 on the whole movie.
