Romance?

Rating: 5/10 (8 April 2017)

Romance? Stalking, kidnapping, attempted murder leavened with some romantic Stockholm Syndrome. Nice ship and a few effective exterior scenes. Otherwise essentially a silly business culminating in fancy FX footwork and a 'Perils of Pauline' resolution. "Winter's Bone" is still Jennifer Lawrence's high point for me and now that she has become a glamorpuss, deservedly, I keep wanting to fault her for being too pretty to be a good actress, but I can't. She hasn't proved it yet. Here, as usual, she delivers. Chris Pratt, on the other hand, has no weight, gravity or not. He delivers cotton candy. The tactic of casting 'pretty and popular' was only 50% successful.
Notice how good Laurence Fishburne was? Imagine if it had been he that woke her up. Yeah, creepy, I know, but it would have been much deeper. And I would have cared, instead of wishing some 'eat 'em one by one' alien would've shown up.
