Such an interesting concept and genuinely looks thrilling! Excited for this.

The use of Toxic in the trailer *.*

Getting big buzz online! Not sure about it's chances at the awards regardless of that though, but could be one to keep an eye out for!

Watched this tonight and I really enjoyed it, a lot. There was a point in the last 15-20 mins here the tone of the film changed and I was SO worried about how it was going to end, but the last 2-5 mins brought me back. I'd have been SO mad if it ended where I thought it was going to end laugh.gif

Great performances (particularly Carey). Directed really well. Great story. Incredible soundtrack! That version of 'Toxic' still slays my existence.

I'm a bit late to the party, but I've just seen this and I was really impressed. The concept itself couldn't be more relevant especially after recent events and all of the characters and situations felt very real (sadly in some cases). Tonally, I did find it rather uneven and had no idea how it would end in a way that made sense for her character, but thinking about it, I feel like that was the point given her fragile emotional state and the ending really tied it all together nicely.

Glad this got nominated for Best Picture, doesn't feel like the sort of thing that usually does!

I absolutely love this! Every small detail is perfect, from the soundtrack to the casting... wow wow wow.

I do wonderful if a more powerful ending would be if she had died and nothing had happened... to emphasize the rhetoric of 'It's A Man's World' but i'm just nit picking
