The lead actress is kind of jarring. Her voice and acting style are flat, and she seems to be entirely focused on suppressing her British accent. And why she was considered so great at her job? Her boyfriend was a simp. So it really is a story with a lot of mercurial mediocrity.
shareShe's a phenomenal actress, although I do agree the accent didn't work if she was meant to be an American native
shareYeah, I think she would've come across better with her original English accent.
The ending was absurd and played out like a femtard's wet dream - strong, empowered boss bitch makes insecure, emasculated man cry, dominates him physically and kicks him out. Looking at the director, I'm not surprised.
Can you imagine a 110 lb woman holding a butter knife in her hand and making a guy like Arnold or Stallone cry & quiver in terror by threatening to stab them? AE's character was pathetic.
Also found it hard to believe that they managed to keep their relationship (and engagement) secret in this age of social media.
