Strange Darling

"I'm glad I decided to see Strange Darling in theaters - and that I saw it blind except for the trailer. It's a wild ride that had me on the edge of my seat. I loved the twists and the format of the film as well. Both Willa Fitzgerald and Kyle Gallner are give great performances and I hope to see both of them in more twisty thrillers again in the future. By the way, I can't help but compare this to Longlegs and while I loved that film too I think I preferred Strange Darling."

"Don’t read reviews. Don’t risk spoilers. In short: this thriller is sexy, twisted, surprising, smart. So glad I saw it in full 35 mm glory at the theater to experience the cinematic mind-effery. "

"Ain’t going to lie this movie had me in the first act. Thought it was going to be a lackluster manhunt type of movie that only has great cinematography. But I was surprised how everything changed. The buildup was perfectly executed and I loved the choices made for these characters fate. It’s a shame that this movie is out on a limited release and I haven’t seen any discussion about this film. It’s definitely a fun, kinda surprising film, and definitely recommend watching."

"[Spoiler free] Subversive, well acted, and intriguing, with great color motifs but I think some of the feminist commentary undermines other parts of the film. I felt like the movie was trying to say something, but then the film itself implies the very opposite. "

"Strange Darling is a strange movie. Great acting. Interesting concept. Could have used some more details considering everyone’s motives. The jumbled timeline wasn’t my favorite but it’s an interesting watch. Definitely not boring."
