Perfectly predictable
I don't get why Netflix casts this actress for main roles. The movie could have been so much better if someone else was portraying Alex. It seemed to me the whole time she was trying to keep her hair unmoveable. Her face and frame is staying still in moments when she could have shown some spark. It annoys me how she is whispering her words. I didn't believe her for a second she is "Alex", I didn't see the character - only the actress pretending to be someone. I had the same issue with her in the other main role for Netflix - Purple hearts. Exactly the same face and hair issue, all the same "play", whispering and posing beautifully. I mean - she is very beautiful, no denying that.
The movie is good, perfectly predictable, plain and flat. You get it from the title. From the 5th minute on you know what is going to happen and almost exactly how. All of the characters you have already seen in all the other movies of the same type, no surprise whatsoever, no complexity. Worth for killing 2 hours.
I liked the story overall, I think the book is probably good. Haven't read it yet, maybe will some day.
