It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

It was hard for me to get my bearings in this film. I love Toby Jones and he never disappoints even with a script like this. The Big Reveal frankly doesn't. I remember thinking at the beginning when Weird Things Happen: oh no, this is going to be one of those "dream movies". A sign of poor writing in every medium.Alas and alack 'twas all confirmed.Great acting though and some of the exteriors were brilliant. I could not figure out how he had an upstairs though as each apartment was on a floor above the others.3/10

5/20/18. Tries so hard to be HItckcockian but falls way too short. Needless to say, the ending was somewhat of a disappointment. Nothing makes too much sense. Psycho has its copycats, but that is all they are.

Like Norman Bates and Buster Bluth before him the main character in this movie, Carl, has severe mommy issues. It all begins when Carl gets a date with a girl over the internet, and when they make it back to his pad, its when everything freaking weird starts, starting with a phone call from Mommy herself, we don't know the backstory, well, Carl does not want to see Mommy... we also find out that Carl does not drink because 'It sends him somewhere' and after his date promises to go looking for him and sneaks some booze into his drink, he promptly 'goes somewhere' and its morning, house is in shambles and oh yea, his date is dead in the upstairs bathroom, then... Mommy shows up. And we quickly see Carl is not exactly...hmmmm... sane. I of course really loved it because simply of the 'what the hell am I watching?' factor. Toby Jones is awesome as Carl, he's always good tho... And its written and directed by his bro Rupert Jones, and its all about Mommy issues, wtf happened in that household??? It reminded me of the movie Spider with Ralph Fiennes in a way...and that movie is spectacular by the way!! So this Mother's Day chill with Mom, and watch this one!! Filmbufftim on FB.
