You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a grounded, women-led relationship drama that calls out controlling behavior and leaves you thinking, similar in tone to Love Story; Not for you if you want a light, feel-good romance.
Pros: strong lead performance; women’s perspective; thought-provoking message | Cons: slow first half; uneven pacing; some predictable moments
