Any review of this movie higher than a 3 is a plant by the studio. This movie is a nightmare with the cringiest performances ever.
Graphically telling your wife you've been sleeping with a 23yo in your marital bed - all while calling her ugly, a robber threatening to bash a man's skull in with a toilet top, after molesting a victim of a concussion, all set in the middle of a violent, sadistic kidnap plot gone awry - OBVIOUSLY a romantic-comedy, right?
And no, anyone going "this is a dark comedy" has no idea what those words mean.
1994's The Ref was a dark comedy kidnap plot.
In Bruges is a dark comedy.
Serious Moonlight is an unbalanced fever-dream told in the voice of a stalker who fantasizes about their forced abduction plot going exactly the way they hope it does.
