I often look at IMDB ratings in deciding whether to try a film that's available online. In this case, I'm glad I ignored them. There are lots of 1-3 star ratings with comments about the film being boring and falling asleep while watching. I guess if you're looking for car chases, superheroes and cgi, it's not your cup of tea. But I enjoyed it. Not a great film, but a very good one. It's about the relationship between two women, and peripherally their relationships with their husbands. People who found this boring would be bored by works from the writings of Tennessee Williams and Somerset Maugham. If you want flash and bang, watch something about John Wick or the Fast and Furious. I enjoyed watching Elizabeth Moss, who I consider to be one of the finest actresses of her generation, as well as a fine supporting cast. But if you want to see something about the human condition, enjoy this film.
