I don't want to spoil anything so I won't go into detail, but this film was going along pretty well, with enough mystery, drama, character development, redemption, acceptance, relationship, family, love, etc, etc....very interesting concept and held my attention throughout trying to figure things out and what exactly happened. There were a few ways this could go and the film maker did a good job to showcase those avenues to keep things interesting and mysterious and leave plenty of room for a twist and surprise ending. Well the surprise was they basically ruined it all in the last 10 minutes using that old time tested and overused method of suspense, which frankly bugs the heck out of me, which is having characters make implausible decisions and do things that no normal, rational or even irrational person would do. The decisions and actions made by several characters in the ending scenes were just so implausible that I docked 1 star, being generous too. So this gets just a 6, watchable, but I believe it could have garnered 7, a fair movie, easily with just a little better writing when they wrapped things up.

This isn't a typical thriller. The cast is quite good even supporting cast so that should indicate that it's not a second rate show. It's different. Starts off like a psychological thriller. Then things become more crime drama with an unexpected villain. The conclusion is unexpected but at least doesn't leave you hanging totally.

Margaret Qualley is getting lots of good roles and she is quite watchable. Amy Ryan plays the bitter Mother and divorcee quite well.

Worth a watch.

This film tells the story of a woman who believes she carries the child of her dead boyfriend.

The plot is mysterious to start with, and then becomes very engaging and captivating. I really feel for all the characters, including the mother, father, brother, the girlfriend and the girlfriend's neighbors. Who would have thought the plot takes such a dramatic turn and becomes so touching. I really enjoyed this film.

This is a solid movie. Slow in parts, but not too slow. It throws in a few surprises, but I saw many of those coming. Very few movies are truly original these days, but this film does a good job of repackaging what has come before. Can't complain about the acting and directing. It's solid enough for a film of this kind.

It's a decent little movie, which I would recommend.

Movie thrillers and mysteries usually revolve around a "McGuffin," an art of fiction set up to establish the plot and motivate the characters but which matters very little by the end of the movie. It's the trap the filmmaker sets to capture the audience to invest them in the story he/she wants to tell.

In this movie, the McGuffin is the mystery itself. The filmmaker doesn't ask us to believe that a ghost can impregnate a sad and grieving girl. Instead, it asks us to look at how loss can become grievance and become toxic, and what it takes to remember who and why we love.

Give it a chance.

This movie starts out promising, because the mystery of why a girlfriend claims to be pregnant from her dead boyfriend 5 YEARS AFTER is intrigueing for sure. That is to say at the beginning...

The bad: this story has so many far fetched implausible plot turns piled on each other in the second part of this movie that it really makes it a bit of a disappointment to watch.

Not any good? Yes, the actor's are really good with true to life acting performances. The start is really good and promising. And however silly the many implausible plot turns are, for those who arent so critical it could be a nice thriller. But dont expect originality...

It's a noir-thriller about metaphysics and family matters (forgiveness, grief...) Reminded me a lot the style and drama of a very recent movie Angel of mine.

A real glued- to- screen thriller with enormous suspense.

Enjoyed very much this you- just- don't- know- the- solution- until- the- end! This is a movie you have to watch VERY attentively, otherwise you wont get the answer. Dont go to the kitchen to search for food in the fridge!

Then you didn't pay enough attention.

It bugs me when people give the movie low rating but their comments make it obvious that they didn't pay attention or missed major parts.

This was a slow burn at the beginning but once we found out who the father was it picked up and concluded very well.

The acting was great

over all

5.9

This is newbie director Rowan Athale's second full length feature film (plus one short), and aside from a few technical errors and editing issues, he pretty much nailed it behind the camera and in directing his cast.

The film is an adaptation of the novel (I haven't read it) of the same name by John Searles, turned into a screenplay by novice writer Eric Garcia. The pacing started out decent, then slowed down midway, and felt dragged out towards the end, that the 96 min run-time felt longer. I wasn't a fan of the non-climatic stretch of cross-cutting time lines, and I felt the story would've been better told in the proper order.

Casting was excellent and all actors were convincing in their roles, especially Margaret Qualley, who was outstanding in her starring role.

The cinematography was on point, and the score perfect for this type of film.

For a low-budget B-grade film by unseasoned filmmakers, this was a surprisingly enjoyable noir-thriller about grief, belief and the things we keep hidden.

It's a recommended watch and a well deserved 8/10 from me.

Not sure what happened here but it's an interesting case study.

This worst titled movie ever starts with a well-crafted, unpredictable mystery with just enough hints dropped to completely engage the audience and keep them guessing. All the way up until the final mind-blowing clue, the movie works.

And then that all goes away, and it's one contrived, cliched confrontation after another. Complex characters all become one-dimensional morons, and the movie degrades into mindless, forgettable action replacing thoughtful dialogue.

Great premise ruined at the end by amateurish, unnecessary "guns and blood!"

This is one of those mystery tales that keeps you guessing as to why our young female is now pregnant from, she believes, her deceased boyfriend from five years ago. We are teased with several possibilities from the mysterious to the bizarre. Of course the answer as to what happened occurs in the final minutes so be patient as you guess who, or what happened.

It was a pretty interesting story. It kept my attention. I wasn't expecting the big twist. It's worth watching.

First, why are so many people asking who the father is? They make it perfectly apparent who the father is in the middle of the movie. Second, why do writers and directors refuse to have their characters call 911 or give them any common sense? This movie is just another stupid waste of time. Come on filmmakers, please create something smarter and better! And Greg Kinnear, I love you but damn.

Pretty good movie, has some pacing issues but for the most part keeps your interest. Has some unexpected twists, thats always a good thing. Good drama/thriller overall, recommended.

This film has every genre going in it. Starts off like a drama/romance. Young girl pregnant. Says the father is her dead boyfriend. Seeks out his family. As the story progresses it becomes more of a thriller and boarders on toward horror almost in the final third. The twist is kind of predictable if not a little disturbing and sad. How the boyfriend died. How the girlfriend got pregnant. I enjoyed the film very much. Would watch again.

Good concept, terrible execution. Wanna hear the recipe for this disaster? Here goes: 1. Make sure your characters are 0.0001mm thick. 2. Make sure you cast pretty models and at least 1 veteran class A actor. 3. Make sure your characters' actions make no sense, ever. 3-b. Make sure the middle age woman acts hysterical the whole time (and you should know I'm a middle age guy with an inevitable bias against middle age women... I can't even imagine how a sane woman will evaluate this idiotic impersonation of a divorced woman with a dead son) 4. Make sure to crap everything up even further with a blissfully idiotic and cringeworthy ending no sane person would be comfortable with.

This is a good film. Very well made, believable in its own weird way and I recommend it to those patient enough to sit down and be told a story. I often have trouble suspending my disbelief, usually due to plot holes and silly irrational explanations for them. The director of this film managed to bypass all of that and craft a much finer movie that you're likely to find among the "made for Netflix" fare so common today. This is the mark of someone who will one day be directing Oscar quality material and I would bet on that.

Zero spoilers here. The acting, cinematography, directing and score all very good.

Quite funny to see some reviewers giving the movie so much hate, it's likely they didnt understand the movie themselves. Good plot though the plot twist came sooner than expected rather than at the absolute end.
