A tough subject, but handled flawlessly by never slipping into degradation, yet leaving that unmistakable feeling under your skin. The dating game scene was a perfect metaphor: he doesn’t have to look strange to be dangerous, and he can even give all the right answers, so don’t think for a second that those women were looking for it, because everyone can fall for it. Dismissing that reality makes you no different from the men who refuse to believe victims when they report to the police.
Perfect debut for Anna Kendrick, high expectations fulfilled!
