I saw the NEON red-band trailer about five months ago, and it didn’t catch my interest then. However, positive reviews started coming in, and it won a lot of awards, so I thought it was worth a chance.It wasn’t at all what I had expected. The movie was a pleasant surprise and quite hilarious at times. The lead actress goes 'balls to the wall' with her performance. It’s definitely worth checking out, but go in blind and avoid watching any trailers.

It has been available on VOD and torrents since December 17, 2024, but no SVOD release date has been set yet.

I had no interest in this movie based purely on the poster. But after seeing reviews I decided to give it a shot. I expect a romcomesque dramedy and this was far from that. This movie was excellent. Yes it was a bit long but I was engaged the whole time. Very well acted. Will not be shocked if this gets some awards. Highly recommend.

Heard nothing but good things about this one, going to check it out even if it isn't "my kind of movie" on the surface. Most of the movies I watched recently that came out in 2024 were kind of godawful, so it'll be good to see something that's actually good. Also going to see Nosferatu soon for the same reason. Trying to mine some gems out of the turd that was movies in 2024.

My wife & I watched this at the weekend. I absolutely loved it. It makes my top 10 - 15 movies of all time.

I didn’t pick my phone up once the entire movie. Fantastic watch.

I can't believe I'm contemplating watching a remake of an Officer and a Gentleman, but with Russians.

It's actually the next installment of the Cloverfield series.

In all honesty that would be pretty badass if it was just an underhanded twist that aliens were screwing up marriages or something, for marrying Russian oligarchs to infiltrate the planet.

I haven't watched it yet, I'm still waiting on confirmation whether or not it's an officer and a gentleman rip off.
