The Narcissist

Woulda been much better if the lead female wasn't made to be so DUMB! How can someone deal with a guy snapping at them basically from the very beginning, yet never actually confront him on it. You have a kid. Get this bipolar dude out of the house asap.

Who moves a boyfriend into the family home after dating for a matter of days without even knowing anything about him? No one wants their space invaded even if they are lovesick! They'd break up within a day.

What women tolerates a new boyfriend who she's barely been dating snapping at her and making nasty comments for no reason at all? No argument, and just unprovoked abuse out of the blue! Who'd be attracted to a man acting like a crazy old women?

Attraction gone i'd say.

A true narcissist is able to fool people and get them hooked, there was nothing attractive about this man.

And what's with the university girl letting herself get pregnant by him? She didn't get into uni by being stupid.

What a stupid, stupid, stupid woman. Totally unbelievable. What more can I say? The end.

The previous reviewer has not been in a narcissistically abusive relationship, the script was perfect, and YES, they DO speak and act EXACTLY the way this movie portrayed, from a survivor's point of view this movie got HIS personality absolutely bang on, including the language they use, I suffer from disassociation and CPTSD as a result of the gaslighting I suffered, and YES, they ARE very plausible, hence how they end up in professional jobs! This movie is very accurate if you are a survivor, it might not appeal if you are not, as it seems so far-fetched, but this is how narcissists survive throughout life, they are very VERY covert, and outside of the home they portray the perfect individual very plausibly, but inside the home they are vile, devious and very VERY dangerous!!!!!! The great charmer when you first meet them, but the lack of empathy/honesty and first flashes of deceitful behaviour are MASSIVE RED FLAGS, HEED YOUR GUT INSTINCT AND DO NOT HAVE ONE OF THESE PEOPLE AS PART OF YOUR LIFE - if, however, you are unfortunate to have one as a family member, the best relationship with them is DISTANCE!!!! And keep them as far out of your life as possible!!!!!

The mother completely ruined this film. Her acting was so drab and the character so dumb I barely got through it. I was actually rooting for the killer boyfriend.
