Don’t get me wrong; I love movies about wives in spooky marriages and in unnerving settings. Almost any gothic melodrama will do it for me. And TBH, for the first two-thirds of this movie, I was ready to ignore the haters and say this movie was good and fun despite the fact that it was a little lacking. Unfortunately, the ending just did not bring it home.
But, I still really liked a lot of the film. (The visuals, the acting, and the premise were all great.) So if you’re the kind of person who will watch a movie just for vibes, or for good acting in the face of a script that still wanted for some revisions, give it a watch!
IF YOU LIKE: Florence Pugh being hot, Chris Pine being hot, Gemma Chan being hot, Harry Styles, or dreamy ’60s Stepford-esque dystopias, give this movie a try!
Where to watch it: You can stream it on HBO Max.
Honorable Mention: If you like gothic melodramas (what Don’t Worry Darling ought to have been a shining example of), some really great old movies to check out are The Innocents (1961) and Rebecca (1940).
