APPEARANCE vs REALITY: low raters missed the point

Rating: 10/10 (21 April 2020)

Just saw this and it was powerful! Does it have some flaws?? Of course it does. And the points about the blood covered woman in a hospital with Feds not making sense are right-but, about those things...
The biggest points of this film have got to be about fake vs genuine, about a jury of popular opinion; people inability to humbly accept that relationship are complicated and should not be dictated by the media-but unfortunately they are. One other HUGE one to appreciating the message of the film is that our ideas about relationships are pretty messed up. This was an allegory for people who stick in toxic relationships. It is a timeless message and particularly needed. Like Affleck suggested: Why do people choose to stay in something where they hurt And control one another instead of just accept that they are not right for one another???? Pressures-mostly EXTERNAL pressures! Judgements of friends, family, media, etc! Equating a failed relationship or marriage to have a loser and a winner-when they could easily both be winners if they don't set it up as a contest.
This was the deeper underlying message. And I think it is silly that there are people underrating this film because of a few details. I think the message just hit a little too close for comfort for many.
If you are in a relationship that is not one of full compatibility and consent-start making a peaceful and honest exit strategy. It's a message not enough people consider.
