Glossy cinematography, erotic thriller undertones, wildly implausible yet gripping twists—peak ’90s thriller.
The twists are audacious, the performances are unhinged in the best way, and the script is shamelessly dramatic. Not perfect, but who cares? It’s a blast. And if you’re not at least a little obsessed with Baldwin’s God complex speech, I don’t know what to tell you.
Also, Bill Pullman is this emoji “🥺” the whole film.

If you ignore the misogyny it’s pretty good! Love the little flashes of pure Aaron Sorkin.
