A Perfect Example Of.. I feel like this film perfectly illustrates the problem with so many Netflix Originals.
Billed as a comedy/thriller with Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler as the two leads, I don't think I laughed once. Neither was I exactly "thrilled," by this, "Murder Mystery."
This is definitely odd.
We know Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston are capable actors and have good on-screen chemistry together. Moreover, the concept was interesting and had potential. This film should've been good!
But it was let down by bad writing. Classic Netflix. There are no funny moments in this script, the formula is very predictable and storyline completely arbitrary. In the end, it's very difficult to care about the fate of two protagonists who are oddly charmless and caricature-like, living in an alternate universe I doubt anyone will find realistic.
