  Review by davidehrlich ★★ 14

  more like THE FUN AND SUPER UNEXPECTED FIRST ACT THAT GIVES WAY TO AN HOUR OF PURE NONSENSE AND A NICE FINAL SHOT.

  
  Edit: ok but do want to say that Logan Browning is spectacular on dear white people and should be a big star and if this movie helps that happen I’m fine with it

  the over-lit, polished photography is garish (definitely the dude who shot Crazy Rich Asians lol) but i sort of appreciated it because it left me completely unprepared for the big swing into korean revenge movie nastiness. kinda whiffs the empowerment angle with the need to over-explain itself in the corniest way possible (embarrassing use of flashback and rewinds) but there's a 40-minute stretch of this in the middle that is totally engrossing. wish the entire third act committed to being as grisly as that final image holy moly.

  Aimed squarely at rubes. In this sense it's the perfect Netflix film. A cheap director, bargain basement script, and C-list actors all keep the budget down. Throw in enough horror elements to get that crowd interested, because horror makes money. Add in a lesbian encounter so that you can lead the socially conscious crowd by the nose, but make sure to show the sex scene for the prurient interest of the less conscious crowd. Don't forget to set part of this in China so that the Next Big Market isn't forgotten. Toss all of that together and you've got a fully leveraged IP to bulk out the numbers on your streaming service, maximum return on a minimal investment.

  Like A Simple Favor, the movie twists and turns in several different directions. Thematically, of course, it's quite dissimilar.

  Charlotte (Allison Williams) and Lizzie (Logan Browning) are cello players. Whether they are meant to be together or whether jealousy will tear them apart seems to be the theme of the first act. Without giving anything away, the story flips and then flips again, making this possibly my favorite movie in YEARS.

  Watching the second act at lunch time, I thought, perhaps, I shouldn't be eating. I survived, but then stumbled on this article after I had finished the whole thing (caution, don't read if you haven't seen as the whole thing is a spoiler): www.buzzfeed.com/christopherhudspeth/the-perfection-on-netflix-is-supposedly-their-most-wtf

  It is twisted and crazy,…
