Strictly average movie

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

It's one of those films that portray an emotion or situation you have to be familiar with in order to truly appreciate it's beauty.The cinematic portrayal of depression at it's finest. The feeling of entrapment in a life that feels like there isn't an escape, the feeling of despair, the fear of pursuing your personal happiness at the cost of another persons happiness. These were artistically portrayed very intimately, and I really appreciated that. It was well executed.Great performance by Gemma Arterton, there were some scenes in the beginning that gave me shivers.A lot mixed reviews for this title, and I understand why. People who have experienced a similar situation would resonate with this film very much. One of the reviewers called her motives unrealistic and selfish, that 'every mum' goes through this. That's untrue, every person is different. Every situation is different. Some people love their roles of being mothers, and go through their life without a care of other possibilities. Some people enter motherhood ambitious, not realizing the sacrifice. The sacrifice of personal accomplishment and meaning. And I feel like this is what the film was trying to portray. A film not for everyone, but for those who do resonate with it will appreciate it.

Never been more disgusted by any choice of any character in any movie and ive seen tons!I cant believe that any mom, no matter how much is she fed of her daily routine would leave like that!That is seriously f'ed up. They can divorce , they could get a nanny and she could do something that makes her happy , but her decision is sick wrong by any means and that is the 1st movie that made me feel super super annoyed and angry :(
