Trust

....you need better taste in films.

There's an interesting idea behind this film but the execution is awful. The characters of Amy and Ansgar should have been recast. Not sure why they made Ansgar Irish. Either get an Irish actor or cast the character as British like the actor is!!!! He couldn't maintain his accent through the film. The actress playing Amy didn't play the part well; she was very two dimensional, and the story could have been more twisty but it was flat and flaccid.

My score of 3 is for the idea.

Trust is a rushed movie with alright acting, except the Irish man. He kept breaking his accent constantly and I couldn't hear a word he said. Honestly, I mainly turned on Trust because of Victoria Justice, Matthew Daddario, and Katherine McNamara. Their acting was great. I did enjoy the twists and turns the movie took. But in the end, I ended up being right. I don't think the sex was needed, or the art. It all felt a little too much. Some of the story dragged and bored me. Also, the whole thing with the senator confused me. For a second I thought Owen was seeing the senator and was gay? I don't know. Overall, it was okay.

Once there is doubt ... once someone believes that the other person is not faithful to them anymore ... it is hard to walk that back. For better or worse, Trust is a perfect title for this movie. A movie that is flawed, that shows flaws in humans. Those in love, those who tease them - and the bystanders around them.

I had heard of the ... let's call it service the woman hires. I had not heard the conditions and the ethics behind it. Have to admit, it does make sense. It made less sense to see how this unravels towards the end. But it was kinda fun watching it. Do not expect too much in the titilating department by the way (or to be more specific in the nudtiy department). But if you are here for the story, that shouldn't bother you anyway.

Here's a snippet of how bad the writing of this movie is :

"Did anything happen in Paris?"

"No"

"With full honesty, all cards out on the table"

"No, I'm not gonna answer that question"

"Well would you please answer that question?"

There's a scene where this presumably attractive Irish dude who goes by the name Ansgar fondles Brooke's thighs WITHOUT her consent and she feels uncomfortable. The very next scene they are both conversing like nothing ever happened. Minimal efforts have been put into script writing and the direction. The performances by the actors were below average. Making matters worse was the background music which had no relation to the story nor was it remarkable. The music doesn't even stop for like 10 seconds throughout the movie!

Not to mention movie is flawed. Please avoid this at all costs. 2 stars for Victoria Justice. She looks stunning throughout the movie.

I was watching this with a friend so, we had a really fun time judging the characters 😂😂. The story has a few twists though, which we didn't see coming and really enjoyed. Overall, a fun experience.
