    Never can complain about some CQC action. Lacks some of the stylistic flourish of "Green Room", but still very refined as direct-to-streaming action films go. Definitely could have been tightened up a bit, and the amount of night scenes doesn't pair remotely will with Netflix's compression algorithm.

    One day Aaron Sorkin and I will have (very many, and quite pretentious) words regarding my criticisms

    There's something potent here about women's experience in marriage, how it both creates and constricts the self. But I was just bored most of the time, and the editing felt pretty clumsy. Plus I had a dude in front of me constantly googling the real photo of whatever event was on screen, one of the most maddening experiences I've had in a theater, which may be a big part of this score.

    Fundamentally more interested in the personal than the political. While that's fine and dandy, I'd prefer the personal be a bit more interesting.
