I think I will fold.

Rating: 6/10 (12 February 2018)

I knew nothing of the book or anything about the story so watched this with an open mind. It started off well but soon I realised this was becoming one of those films where the protagonist is narrating through the majority of the film. History has taught me this is usually a bad sign. The story telling is so weak it needs a thread to keep the viewer hooked and aware of whats exactly going on. It seems to be prevalent in so many films one wonders why this happens. The film is entertaining enough its just there are moments you're left scratching your head wonder whats going on. Molly was an intelligent lady its just she had absolutely no common sense whats so ever. Idris made a very poignant speech at the end of the movie that most people I believe would have listened to. I guess each to their own. The film sadly for me was over by this point. I lost all interest in the character and hoped they'd throw the book at her. As the film came to an end I told myself well this is after all supposed to be a true story. And whats the old saying 'Truth is stranger than fiction'.
