    This is a steaming trash pile of a movie that made me physically nauseous.

    As a 'bride to be' I thought this would be a fun watch... turns out I'm not in the target demographic! *shock*

    However, If you are a spinster (who doesn't plan on EVER getting married) - this movie was 100% made for you! Enjoy!

    I feel as if I'm losing all my leaves...

    For someone who has witnessed one of their Grandfathers suffer with dementia, I cannot be more grateful that this film was made from the fathers perspective.

    Dementia is challenging and often dangerous/scary for all involved. It's a difficult subject, especially for those who have no experience with it. But I would recommend anyone to watch this. It is a gloriously gut wrenching film.

    I won't say much more, but the mise-en-scene in this film is superb! Whoever was in charge of continuity deserves a goddamn medal 🏅

    Lara Croft-esque urban spelunking. Hell yes!

    Poor effort. But I wasn't expecting anything else from the Anderson/Jovovich trainwreck (re: Resident Evil "films").

    If you must sate your curiosity, I recommend consuming a jagerbomb or 20, and taking the piss out of it with a mate.
