Michael P @TheeMichael-jai Feb 13 Thought tiresome and drawn out, the magnificent appeal dragged it far enough but eventually, the potential had also been dragged out by then. See more Luis D @MasterLobo Dec 8 Looked interesting. The movie could been better rated, but the unexpected ending without any explanation at all had a negative impact See more Rod G @RT28366036 Oct 18 Disappointing waste of time. Should have been marketed as an urban comedy. But unrealistic, insipid, and uninspiring. I felt nothing for these characters other than actors acting rote and tired. Poor excuse for a paycheck. Don’t waste your time. You would have more fun removing the mildew from your shower walls!! See more John G @RT87419433 Sep 22 This movie is compared to Hitchcock. Is that Bob or Jack Hitchcock? Because it can't be Alfred Hitchcock. The first few minutes are intriguing and OK somewhat Hitchcock-like, but then it turns into a claustrophobic retelling of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf. There's a twist ending in spades which I really hated. I watched this right after Cobweb, so it was bad night for movies. I added a star because the female lead is Phil Collins' daughter which is just awesome. P.S. I feel I have to vote thumbs up on Netflix even a bad movie if it's in one of my favorite genres. Otherwise, the algorithm may recommend soap operas to me. See more M D @RT82513945 Aug 23 Unresolved plot lines. No character development, not sure who was the villain and who was the victim. Slow paced. See more r96 s @RT00952237 06/03/2025 'Windfall' holds some moments of promise, though my interest dropped out too often for me to deem it as a good, or even an average, movie. I was uninterested more than I was locked in. That's a shame, because the (tiny) cast are great on paper. Lily Collins is the standout, with Jesse Plemons closely following. Jason Segel is iffy in this, his body language sorta acting is actually good but once he starts talking I just didn't buy the whole situation; same could perhaps be said (albeit to a lesser degree) for Plemons, who I am a fan of. The fact that it is a very obvious 'COVID movie' doesn't help, it just makes the limited, one location nature of the plot feel too restrictive. That's probably an unfair thing to judge the movie on given the time, but still. In total fairness, the film picks up its pace slightly near the end. See more Read all reviews
