This movie takes a little while to get into, because you're not sure where the story is going. Be patient. The story is complex and multilayered. It is highly topical. The acting is stellar.
The story introduces a character named Tiffany (Ani) who is an editor at a magazine that is clearly a parody of Cosmopolitan or Glamour. She is engaged to be married to a wealthy young man but is also trying to get a more prestigious job at the New York Times. A documentary filmmaker wants to interview her for a documentary about a school shooting that happened when she was in private high school. A survivor who became a gun control activist has been accusing her of being involved in the shooting, although this was never proven. Meanwhile, Ani has been keeping her version of the events private. The truth is slowly unraveled. The movie explores shaming, bullying and silencing. I only wish the filmmakers had left Los Angeles at some point in their lives to discover that New York women don't totter around on spike heels nor do they wear thigh high dresses.

This movie reminded me of old HItchcock thrillers and film noir/femme fatale movies. There's one in particular, but I won't say which because it would be a spoiler...what's different about this movie is that it also throws in some goofy humor/satire. At first it seems like it doesn't fit and Anna McKendrick's performance is campy. But it does kind of fit in the end, contrary to what some reviewers here say.
The movie is about an unlikely pair of female friends, one of whom clearly has some secrets. She disappears and the other does some sleuthing. The husband gets involved. There are some twists and turns and some great performances, especially Blake Lively's. I found this movie very entertaining. So why isn't it rated higher on this site? It's because it stars women. I have consistently found on this site that movies that star women and not men are rated down, probably by the vast number of MRAs and incels that populate this site. If you're a woman I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy this movie.
