A painstakingly detailed exploration of a married couple who slowly falls out of love with each other and the aftermath that follows; both in staying together and being unhappy, but also in divorce with constantly wondering if you both made the right decision.

The Heartbreak Kid 1972
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

No One Will Save You 2023
A boring, non rousing and unimaginative experience. The main character is uninteresting and the lesson she learns by the end is ass backward and extremely weird. The aliens are poorly imagined and all the themes, motifs, and storytelling found in its run time are unoriginal, and sadly beside that, not fun or engaging. This movie becomes old news ten minutes in.

While I think everything surrounding Joe as a character was the most interesting and none trope-y thing about the film, the film crashes and burns with its need to be overtly cheesy and melodramatic.
I’m unsure what the movie is trying to say or trying to do with its thematic elements, it’s confusing on its voice and then you add this score into film that sounds like a royalty free soundtrack and it’s even more confounding. None of this worked for me and it’s probably one the worst movies I’ve seen in a while.
