Movie Review - Don't Worry Darling
Don't Worry Darling was not as good as I was hoping for. It needed something more. A little more backstory would have helped but I felt they brushed over that in lieu of setting the tone. They did great on that, just like the acting. Every single performance was a top-notch performance. I absolutely loved the setting and wardrobes. It looked like a great movie but it fell kind of flat story-wise.
Florence Pugh was splendid. (AliceChambers) I read that Olivia Wilde was going to take that part but decided to give it to Florence when she saw her in Midsommar; That was a great decision. Not only because Florence did such a great job as Alice but the role of Bunny was perfect for Wilde. She was my favorite character, everything about Bunny was cool.
It dragged a bit in places and other spots felt rushed over. This is a movie that I'll be scratching my head over for quite some time. It's not a movie that I will rush back out to see, I don't think waiting for it to stream will lose any of its big-screen appeal, I would recommend to my family and friends to wait and save the high ticket cost and the price of gas to get to the theater.
