This movie has a promising premise, but fails to develop it properly and is very boring.
The film exposes that toxic couples who fail to do their part in the relationship are destined to fail, as well as exposes the toxic masculinity that still exists. The story is boring since the situations and conflicts that exist become problematic due to the way the characters deal with them, accompanied by a very notorious poor character development, causing you to not empathize with them. The main character is very annoying because of his way of being and the female character has no development, which makes her very superficial. The film also has unnecessary sex, the actors do their best despite how little they are given to work with. The ending falls short and is somewhat confusing.
The premise about this couple and their main conflict is very interesting but it is not exploited correctly or extensively in this film, which ends up being boring due to the lack of exploiting some interesting situations on this topic.

Boring
Didn't really see the ending coming
Good, but sad to watch what people will do to each other when pressure mounts. If you have ever had a situation with a person and thought....if a chance meeting with this person would not have happened, what would my life be like? This film shows you that happiness is actually super fragile and could implode on you at any time due to something unexpected. I was angry with all three characters at the end.
Harsh but realistic story
Yes, this could happen. It probably has happened. The movie doesn't dance around the issue and shows this tragedy in brutal and explicit scenes. It is raw, nasty, but once you start watching you have to see it through. The end is disappointing, because something more than just smashing and burning the cradle of the unborn baby has got to happen, but they leave it to our imagination. Not a fun movie to watch, but it will stay with you.
