Below Average

Rating: 3/10 (5 April 2019)

This movie wasn't terrible, but definitely below average.
I'm not blaming Brie completely for this but the scenes with her were almost always awkward and felt forced. I feel she was terribly miscast for this role, she seemed to act better in other films, so I think it was combination of writing and acting issues.
The other main issue was just that everything was a bit too easy and not gradual at all for Carol, went from being ordinary to being completely overpowered and infallible in moments.
There were very slight tones of sexism towards men in this film, which is common for a lot of films to have a bit of sexism, but some of it was a bit too noticeable in this case, especially after the obvious agenda from media defending this film, you almost wouldn't be surprised if Carol or someone else started talking about mansplaining after some of these scenes.
Rotten Tomatoes will refuse to post my review after 5 attempts over a month, yet they allow the 5 star review bots to flourish. Let's see if IMBD is manipulating the narrative as well.
