Couldn’t stay awake with this collage of scenic screen savers and British accent with such boring monotone subjects! Miss Violence is more of my slow burn cup of tea!
This is the whitest movie ever made.
nope
This movie could have been amazing.. acting, cinematography, moody setting and suspense were all great. But the plot dragged on too long, and when you finally reach the end expecting a big horrifying reveal moment, you are left confused about what even happened. Very frustrating.
This one will sit with me for a while.
