Should You Worry Over "Don't Worry Darling" ?

  


Set in an idealized 1950s community, Alice and Jack live in a world where everything seems perfect. Every morning, the men goes to work in the Victory project, while their wives are left behind, enjoying their homes - cleaning or preparing meals. Until such time when something happens to a neighbor's wife, and weird things start happening. Alice begins to question her reality.     


Let me just say that this mystery-thriller has a stellar cast - with Florence Pugh, Harry Styles, Chris Pine, Gemma Chan, and Olivia Wilde who's also the Director. The cinematography is beautiful, the costumes lovely, the cars are cool, and production design is fabulous. The movie keeps you interested enough, but towards the end of it, it leaves you dissatisfied. It seems the writers didn't put much attention to the development of events leading to the big reveal. So many questions left unanswered. 


Now I'm not hating the movie. It does look beautiful on the surface. And the acting among the cast is generally good, especially Ms. Flo (Florence Pugh). She carried the film from beginning to end. It has so much potential. It's just unfortunate that they could have done more. Anyways, it's a good study on how not to ruin an otherwise great movie.
