This is going to be THE quickest, no-frills movie review I've ever done...
This movie is average in every sense of the word; high school kid being bullied by bigger kid, whom he'd later be expected to get revenge upon, kid acting like an absolute tool, while at the same time constantly getting in trouble at school, because he's dealing with "something"... mum trying to reach said kid but can't get through to him, the kid MEGA IRRITATING with a gigantic mouth - that makes it impossible to feel an ounce of sympathy for him after the first knee-jerk, shock reaction, protective instinct to him being bullied - at which point you just wish that that little annoying thing will stop squealing back with some irritating smart-mouthed retort.
He comes across as an obnoxious, stereotypically American show-off with a huge mouth!
Basic 90's-esque action movie, from an era that we all love. One that is infinitely better than the decade that succeeded it; social-media made everything much worse.
BAD CGI...
This film evokes feelings of the 90's, particularly rich in love, family and simplification, which is only a good thing.
Average movie, highly irritating protagonist, bad special effects, great feelings of the 90's, Jennifer Garner... GORGEOUS Jennifer Garner... gorgeous in every way.
If she were mine, I'd NEVER let go.
Affleck screwed up, and ended up with one the worst Jennifer's that there is, as punishment for his crimes... and now, all that's left for him is eternal punishment (with a high-maintenance headache of an arrogant, egotistical woman who refuses to age gracefully) Poor Ben, that'll teach you!!
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!
Oh, and... we love Ryan Reynolds. He's such a nice, wholesome guy. One whom we'd ALL love to be friends with, because you know that he's such a good guy. The same feeling you get from Michael B. Jordan.

This, right here is how you know that you have great actors in front of you; I've been taken on a rollercoaster of emotions... many of which I've felt frequently. Some I've only felt a couple of times.
The pain of wanting something to work with an unwilling participant.
What happened here is a sign of the times: women miss their freedom and will make hasty, wreckless decisions to taste that freedom, even if it means regretting that decision later on.
Goddamn, this is sad!
You're placed right there with them as they deal with the ramifications of an incredibly self-absorbed relatives shortsighted, self-gratifying, impulsive decision, that causes so much hurt and pain.
You feel every ounce of that weight.
Then you observe what happens when sadness, need and desperation enable a wolf to be let into a civilised, albeit broken family unit.
Desperation doesn't yield anything worthwhile, ever!
Marie is a colossal mess. Greg is a spineless weakling. Sickening!!
I absolutely LOVE Paula Malcomson. I find her so sexy and pleasant. She's a very consistent actress.
Such a small, low-budget endeavour took a couple of masters of their craft to sell it cohesively. They did just that.
A tip of the hat to all involved in this powerful, low-budget family drama done to perfection.
Outstanding! 9-stars!

As soon as I began this, I realised that it was for me; it was slow, flimsy, simple and pretty pointless.
Charlie Murphy (not Eddie's brother) is a very good actress, but even she cannot save this sunken wreckage.
Whyyyyyy???... why create something so pointless???
I've already seen this story a hundred times already and it's irritatingly pointless every time.
So why recreate this!?
It stinks of a low-budget Poirot; this is incredibly corny, stupid,predictable and extremely frustrating.
The protagonist is an inept weakling.
And the butch, black lesbian detective in the last episode... DETESTABLE!
"Believe all women..."!!??
This, right here, is the result of that kind of bias... And women go for it every time!! It's EXTREMELY INFURIATING!!
Female psychopathic, sociopaths move freely, invisibly... able to get away with anything that they desire, ruining the lives of innocent people, and they're believed automatically, because they'd 'NEVER' commit heinous crimes!...
It's pretty rubbish.
Netflix keep on managing to snag me with something from their rubbish catalogue, because they're hurting for material and I'm incredibly bored.
I might just cancel my subscription, because this has happened too often for something that I pay premium rate for.
And, I pay for the highest subscription of crappy Netflix.
Netflix, get better content, commission better writers, stop mixing in and forcing the Alphabet Cult agenda, or I'm OFF!
I don't pay a premium only to be frequently handed steaming garbage.
This is all you seem to do, and you rarely have good content.
I may as well flush notes!
***CANCELLED my Netflix account.
I'm done playing games with them; I do not pay the top-tier of their subscription for low-tier product. Yet, that's what they've been giving me.
And, the enforcement action against password-sharing was the nail in their years old coffin.
I've had their coffin ready since 2018; I've given them 5 years to clean up their act, to no avail.
