+1 Just grim, and a bit cliched to be honest. Despite some good performances, I don't recommend.

I was never a fan of Tyler Pcs Madea movies, but once I heard how generous he was during the pandemic paying for groceries for many + doing other charitable acts, I developed great respect for him.

I'm in the middle of watching right now (we're in the bank) and it's reminding me of Michael Douglas' movie Falling Down. Same concept, just very different main characters.

Just finished. I don't want to spoil it for anyone, but 1. I sure wish that hadn't happened to her and 2. Mental breaks are such BREAKS. Just goes to show how fragile the brain, the psyche is.

I wonder why her mother didn't intervene. Although I guess it was only the next day, so maybe they hadn't even spoken since it happened.

But her mother appeared to be in a position to help her if necessary. Made no sense.

What could the mother have done?

The mother appeared financially comfortable, so helped with money when things were dire?

I did not see anything indicating the mother was financially comfortable.

She appeared to live in a normal middle-class home.

***SPOILER ALERT *** Don't read this post if you don't want spoilers.




Well, I'm not sure, but if my granddaughter passed away, and the next day my daughter was acting as if she was still alive I'd at the very least go to her and take her to the hospital (if she'd agree). Or I'd stay with her, or try to convince her to come to my house. I wouldn't just leave her to go about her day in this unstable mental state. The mother was at the hospital with her when it happened so I assume they live close/in the same town.

Yeah, I noticed this. Couldn't they have moved in with her to ease the extreme poverty they faced?

This was a good watch. I didn't think I would enjoy it but I did.

I thought it was a fantastic movie that really made you feel the character's struggles, and that twist! I gasped though yes, in hindsight there were clues. Taraji P Henson is a fantastic actress, always, but she was especially great in this.
