Too much of everything

Lack of good storyline.

good back-story, and good acting

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Where was the advertising for this movie? It really deserved a bigger audience. I urge you to watch and pass it on word of mouth. It's a beautiful study in human dynamics - taken to the extreme. Nothing in either characters behavior is really all that surprising or unexpected, with the obvious exception to his deceitful betrayal and response to what he considers as his world unraveling. Something perhaps a bit of therapy might have avoided had the surgeon seen fit to foresee likely problems and recommend it. Not that far of a stretch. When one person has been a full time caregiver for another, and is suddenly now no longer "needed" in that capacity it can truly mess with your head, strange as that may sound. We humans are complex creatures and we find our patterns, no matter how tragic in nature or origin, to be quite comfortable especially over time. It becomes what we know, and somehow what we tend to cling to, even in the face of obvious and contrary reason. Blake Lively continues to impress. She has hidden depths which I am happy to see being portrayed in more serious subject matter. I fully expect to see even better roles for her in future. A nice HBO or Netflix limited series would place her front and center in the public's eyes and give her a place to shine. I hope she gets it. I rated this movie a 9, but I may as well have rated it a 10; I honestly don't know anything that held me back. Hindsight. Go figure. I suppose contemplating "perfection" is always daunting. I hope you enjoy this journey, for a journey it most certainly is.

I like both main actors but jeez I just don't understand the point of this movie. 48mins into it, yes I was checking the clock, and the story didn't seem to go any where. Quite boring and no thrill.

You see...it looks like a promising movie. She can't see...then she can. When it looks like something really thrilling is to happen...it doesn't. You stay like waiting for it to make sense, it never does. Nothing really worthy. The story seems to be left in a very dull moment which stays on and nothing really unfolds. You leave the movie theater with some question marks...how can someone transform a promising plot in a very dull and nonsense? Idk! Maybe I am too demanding these days when it seems that movies are sometimes produced to be a failure.

I was looking forward to watching this film, the trailer looked OK. I like Blake Lively and I thought this movie would be quite interesting to watch. I can't say Im fully disappointed, I was expecting a plot that revolved around silent emotional abuse and that is exactly what you end up getting in this movie. The acting was alright. The first half was in my opinion pretty bad and the movie did improve towards the end. I just found the duration span of this movie quite long and the plot surely seems to drag on for eternity. The ending for me was the worst of all it's what broke the camel's back. I just didn't buy it, it seemed rushed and abrupt. This movie deals with some pretty dark themes but it tries to lighten up the mood a bit, the emotional abuse is very subtle and aside from a few outbreaks and lashing outs it was hardly evident. Co-dependency is a very serious mental issue and I thought the plot at least made how unhealthy that is obvious enough. What I didn't like was the way the characters dealt with each other, how they interacted and how the story ended.I don't have to tell you not to watch this, because apparently this movie costed 30 Million USD to make but its revenue from the box office was 217,644 USD. The release date got pushed back twice as well, until it was finally released in October of 2017. I can see this movie wasn't popular enough from the get go, however in case you're thinking of watching this save yourself the trouble.
