    Forced messaging and unsupported "thriller"
    It's 4 family members in a bathroom... that's it. Some flashbacks to cover current social messaging trends.. but ultimately.. it's 4 family members stuck in a bathroom - talking, arguing, etc - as family members will do. Any scene outside the bathroom is a flashback. And aspect of "horror" or "triller" are primarily pushed by the conversations and flashbacks.

    If you go into this expecting a taught thriller or horror film, you are going to be disappointed. This could, effectively, be a stage play there's so little scene variation.

    Performances, direction, cinematography are all great.. unfortunately the uninteresting script just didn't work for me.
