Not As Good As I Hoped

Rating: 6/10 (7 July 2017)

While the premise is quality and the on-screen chemistry between Daniel Kaluuya and Allison Williams was great - the movie fell a bit flat for me. The writing could have gone in a number of different creative directions and the final script was not the best choice.
I left the movie without feeling the overall scope of the difficulty with inter racial dating in the United States. Which could have been a terrific arc, especially with the political leanings of Rose's (Allison Williams) father. Instead the movie turned into a basic thriller afterwards.
The overall acting was good, the music was fine, and there weren't any major editing flaws. However, I was expecting far more from this film.
Overall Score: 6.2
