Mariés et confinés

Lot of overly exaggerated acting by the two leading actors who played the couple. There's nothing to make you interested for this bored-you-to-death British movie. The couple in this movie were not likable at all. I even spotted the guy who played the husband who looked at the camera very often. When they sat at the counter eating mushrooms, his mouth didn't shut tight when chewing, so the noises came out of his mouth were just too overwhelmingly loud and annoying.

There's absolutely nothing worth you to invest over 10 to 15 minutes of your awakening time to watch this lame movie. Just another very typical British movie, totally unnecessary.

What a great idea to document a time in our lives through fiction but in real time.

I laughed and cried throughout the whole thing. It showed so much of the everyday lives of all of living through this pandemic and touched on so many issues. Absolutely gorgeous acting and very funny. Would make a great play.

Rivetting confessional fish-bowl one-house production, wonderfully delineated characters (you'll love to hate 'he', but ... well, it's McAvoy, and he'll help you accept the lines that come out of his mouth, even if you disagree with 'him'). Quick-shifting dynamics (never boring: I'm amazed at all the reviews who say so: duh, it's lockdown, perhaps you're not able to relate to these characters and the situation they're in, so jog on) as the relationships react to the emergency outside, what's happening to their family and friends outside, and how this changes them - then, how the characters grow, change, despair, and attempt to cope. The child is very subtly played: the adults are trying to cope, but this means a lot of self-care, and there's not a lot of reserves left to then look after another person.

Lots of empathy and self-examination, and that sense of 'much of this could have been mitigated by effective leadership' vs 'I wish I was brave enough to tell you how much I care'. Highly recommended. Thank you to all involved in making this. When we're all a bit more ready to reflect on what's been eroding our society for the last two years, this film will help us come to terms with what just happened.

Fabulous concept and delivery by two of our finest actors. I'm a sucker for anything that Sharon Horgan does and this doesn't disappoint. Shades of the relationship she developed with Rob Delaney in Catastrophe but with a more serious observation on the human condition.

James Macavoy is simply superb and his performance reminded me of those delivered by Martin Sheen and David Tennant in Staged.

All in all brilliant script, concept and delivery.

Dennis Kelly and Sharon Horgan co-wrote the brilliant sitcom 'Pulling'; here, Horgan stars in what is really a televised play that Kelly has written about one couple trying to survive the era of COVID-19. An excellent James McAvoy co-stars alongside her. Kelly's writing is sharp, humane, and politically angry, but in a talky piece the overall direction is somewhat predictable. It's good, but it's also quite long for what is essentially a pair of interlaced monologues.
