tw: billie piper saying 'i love you' (multiple times) in the exact same cadence with which we all heard those words on the 8th of july 2006

I really like Billie Piper but this film didn’t do it for me. It wasn’t bad but I just didn’t like it much. I think it’s a fairly well crafted story and the characters are kind of interesting, it had some funny moments and moments with great directing as well. I just don’t really care about what’s happening.

Since Billie Piper is the new Doctor I thought I'd finally get round to her directorial debut.
To make a film about yourself, staring yourself, directed by yourself and written by yourself, you need to have something worth saying and Billie Piper clearly does. This is a miserable and furious take on feminism and the constant influence of toxic masculinity in which Billie Piper shouts out how she felt married to the awful Laurence Fox. Unfortunately, the direction feels a little dull throughout, repeating the same close ups of Mandy explaining her inner thoughts and adding to the idiocracy and confrontational style of each conversation. That being said it is still a great effort for a first attempt at directing and I hope that Billie Piper continues to write and direct more films, we need to hear more from her.
