About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an intense, emotionally tough relationship drama about parenting, control, and mental health, in the vein of Beautiful Boy or The Beaver; Not for you if you want light romance or easy comfort.

Pros: gripping psychological tension; strong central performances; thought-provoking parenting conflict | Cons: slow, repetitive middle; heavy, depressing tone; ending feels melodramatic
