Horse Latitudes

This film was a refreshing change from a lot of mediocre movies out there. It took its time and asked more questions than it answered but all in all was thoroughly enjoyable. Insightful (and clever) dialogue, authentic humanity and asking some serious existential questions. Add the French ambiance and wistful insights and you have a perfect storm. The pacing may not be for everyone but I couldn't have enjoyed this escape to the French countryside more.

This movie isn't about discovering yourself or "true love" but a Hollywood portrayal of an unhealthy obsession and trauma bonding. "Waiting" for someone to change is unhealthy no matter how many beautiful actors you cast to try and veil the toxicity. The only redeeming factor of wasting 104 minutes of your time is if you mute it and enjoy the cinematography of the South of France as a screensaver since it lacks any actual substance. It is obvious that the director and producer tried to pull the wool over the audience's eyes with a cloak of gaslighting, empty promises and no real emotional intelligence.

Looking for a movie about lessons learned, with character growth and development? Don't look here.

Now mind you, I'm not saying every story needs a happy ending. Generally though, when there isn't one it's because of some reason. Some profound realization, some major personal growth moment, other external factors pulling the characters apart, etc. This movie had none of that. It was going, and going, and then it just...wasn't anymore. If anything, the main characters both take steps back in their lives and end in a worse state than they began. Not really much else to say because nothing really happened.

Don't bother with this... Not even worth typing 150 characters, no idea why this was even released.

Terrible acting and a terrible movie.

Find something else to watch.

Just like the other review, I didn't get the film and I watched it completely. Very nice scenery and acting was ok, but LifeTime movies have a more meaningful script.
