5/10

First time watch

Sci-Fi – Love – Black Mirror-ish

A couple in the year 2065, are offered a “replacement husband” to stay behind with the wife while the husband is sent off by the government to serve on a space station.

I didn’t hate this film, but also can’t really pinpoint any “ooh I loved that” parts of the film. It was ok. It made me think of some episodes of Black Mirror, which I feel are way better than this film.

I wasn’t sure if you were meant to know where this film was going, but as I could see it from a mile away, I found it irritating and wanted it to “get on with it”.

There were some nice shots, Saoirse Ronan and Paul Mescal were good in their parts, but overall it was pretty slow and bordering on boring. I kept reaching for my phone and then putting it down trying to encourage myself to give the film a chance.

Would not watch again
