About
If you enjoy slow, feel-bad psychological dramas with upsetting tension, The Swerve may hit hard, but Not for you if you want fast thrills or lots of scares like Bird Box.
Pros: strong lead performance; disturbing, tragic mood; well-drawn character vibe | Cons: very slow pacing; too confusing at times; not enough suspense
