Samara Weaving. Where are her flowers? She is so talented. Her acting prowess is up there with the Saoirse Ronan, the Jennifer Lawrence, the Florence Pugh. Samara deserves recognition. A couple Oscars nods. In this movie, Samara perfectly executed every emotion, every scene she was in. Her funny, fear, anger - all of her emotions - came off genuine. She was the designated carry for this film and she did her thing.

Mark O'Brien played the supporting role of the Husband. I didn't like the Husband's character development. Nevertheless, Mark played the role to its fullest potential. Mark's acting was natural, like Samara's. Mark had a je ne sais quoi. When Mark's not on the screen, I looked forward to seeing him on the screen.

Adam Brody looked exhausted the entire film.

My biggest disappointment with the film was the Husband turning on the Wife. I really, really wanted their marriage to work out, for the couple to make it out together.

All in all, a fun film. Great for friends get together/ movie night.
