If the film is trying to support feminism maybe don’t make the women characters actually seem crazy. The film also throws away it initial premise in favor of a weak underdeveloped plot twist.

The chemistry between Florence and Harry was not there. The movie has nothing to do with female pleasure and feminism. I am a massive fan of Harry but this movie is just bad.. I can't imagine people looking at the script and thinking that it was a good idea because it clearly wasn't. Florence did her best with what she could work with what was almost nothing. This wasn't a right role for Harry either. I genuinely believe this movie will be praised and loved purely for the fact Harry is in it and he has a massive fan base that will praise every single thing he does even when it's bad.. and this movie is just bad. The dialogue was off, the chemistry was off, the story was off and the ending so predictable. If you will read overhyped and great reviews please think twice because most (not all) 5 star reviews will be fans of Harry that just love the movie for Harry being in it and nothing more. Sure some people will genuinely like this movie but I can't imagine being that many in my view.. Olivia Wilde, great job on hyping up a movie that is burning down now and will be forgotten soon. Waste of time and money. Happy this won't be shoved down my throat anymore. So many plot holes and not much meaning. This movie has been promoted so extremely much but didn't deliver at all. The movie isn't scary, it's just uncomfortable. It's a shame because the movie could have been a lot better with the right direction and some changes in the script and a better casting for jack. Olivia can say it's because she is a female that people will dislike it but that is just a very sorry excuse to hide behind the fact the movie is bad.. being a female doesn't mean you can't have criticism and they definitely used a lot of stunting for this movie.… Expand

It's just a rip off of The Stepford Wives, but worse. A trash screenplay that even talented actors like Pugh and Pine can't make convincing... and Harry Styles should stick to music.

I don't know what Olivia Wilde was thinking with this unoriginal premise, especially in terms of not giving credit where it's due and saying it's at least "inspired by" Ira Levin's work.
She should've just adapted his book directly instead of this confused, over-the-top plot that takes itself too seriously instead of being a satire.
As for the drama behind the scenes I really don't care about any of that. It wouldn't have changed the quality of the film, at least in my opinion.… Expand

How tripe and uninspired. This movie was mid AF!!! This movie is unoriginal and boring. She basically made the Stepford Wives that's what this movie is. But what bugs me the most is the anti-male message.

On voit en tout cas ici les gros sabots des vieux clichés de ces années 50 (les femmes à la maison -et dans la cuisine), les hommes au boulot sur des projets très élaborés et très secrets… mais tout cela à la sauce wokiste ! la diversité est sur-représentée et totalement irréaliste et par ailleurs, les mecs de ce temps-là ne faisaient certainement pas de cunni à leur bonne femme ! non, non, non… c’était le missionnaire et point barre.

Quant à l’aspect complotiste de ce film à complots, il est raté sur tous les plans… les deux heures semblent en durer dix (au bas mot) ; ça se traîne comme un hamster mort, le scénar tout naze ne ferait même pas un vieux nanar tout moisi, tellement il est pourri ! tous les comédiens sont mauvais, toutes les comédiennes sont mauvaises et tout le monde a l’air con, même la si jolie Florence Pugh, complètement dépassée.

Donc finalement, ne t’inquiète pas, c’est juste un minable film de merde réalisé par une conne, complètement à côté de ses pompes, la pauvre ! Rien d’alarmant. Mais quelle daube quand même, putain ! ça m’a énervé.… Expand

While I some marginal give credit to the cinematography and production design, that's really it. Olivia Wilde's boy toy can't act to save his life, and he's completely unbelievable with Florence Pugh, whose performance is halfway decent but repetitive. Her character is rather derivative of the arcs in both 'Midsommar' and even 'Black Widow' which delve into the increasingly overused genre of psychological thrillers.

The writing and direction are the worst offenders. For the like of me, I can't imagine how Wilde interpreted Jordan Peterson in the mold of Chris Pine. She clearly doesn't have the acumen to handle any real deep philosophical themes. Her and the writers just rehashed a bitter unoriginal diatribe about misogynistic brainwashing perpetrated by the "patriarchy" that comes off as petty, deluded, and self-serving, with a plot full of more holes than a kitchen sieve. I would have found it funny, but I have more self-respect than that.… Expand

Glaringly mediocre sophomore effort by Olivia Wilde, who showed great promise with her debut directorial effort "Booksmart" but falls flat on her face with this bland thriller that lacks showmanship and teeth. Its shot well and the cinematography is very good but outside of those things and way better than this movie deserved performances by Florence Pugh (who makes you care when there is really nothing to care about) and Chris Pine, (whose suave and dangerous performance deserves to be in a much better movie than this) there is nothing here that we have not seen before and it overstays its welcome way before the end credits roll. Harry Styles is decent for what he's doing here but it's nothing remarkable and you can see a better actor in his role doing more with it and most of the other actors including Wilde herself are nothing to write home about.
In closing, there is really nothing here to see other than two great actors (Florence Pugh and Chris Pine) wasting their time with mediocre material.… Expand

It's a neck-and-neck race between this and 'Bodies, Bodies, Bodies' for worst picture, though 'Pearl', 'Orphan 2' and 'Nope' are strong contenders as well. This is honestly as good a race for Worst Picture as the race was in 1995 for BestIt's a neck-and-neck race between this and 'Bodies, Bodies, Bodies' for worst picture, though 'Pearl', 'Orphan 2' and 'Nope' are strong contenders as well. This is honestly as good a race for Worst Picture as the race was in 1995 for Best Picture (at the Oscars). Truly a remarkably abysmal year for film thus far, but there's still time for redemption. Movies this year like 'Mad God' give me faith.
I mean, where to even begin with 'Darling'? I guess I'll start by saying it's probably the slowest-paced, most boring script I've seen come to life (if you can call it that) on screen. Some are calling this a "slow-burn", yet something has to be burning for that to be the case. This is just staring at an unlit candle in the hot baking sun, waiting for something to happen as you grow less and less patient.
'Darling' is 2 hours of nothingness. Nothing happens during the entirety of this movie, and the "twist" ending is so lazy and uninspired that I wish the movie just cut to black mid-way through without even the credits to follow. Pugh is literally just her character from 'Midsommar', as in she just sobs and is in hysterics throughout the whole movie. Harry Styles plays... Harry Styles.
This movie has a $30 million budget, yet it basically takes place in a single house in a desert? Where did the money go? If this movie didn't have the names it has attached to it, not a single person would ever mention it (let alone praise it). But because of the "star power" and added drama to the press, it's getting ALL the attention. Far more worrisome, is that this movie will probably make a profit!
Don't let the star power fool you, 'Don't Worry Darling' is worse than what you would find after scrolling for hours through the abyss that is the Netflix or Hulu Horror sections.
Hard-earned 1/10.… Expand

I was anticipating the release of this movie not due to all the in-fighting drama about the cast which fueled the fire for online gossip but more about Olivia Wilde directing and Florence Pugh a very underrated actress. The rest of the cast is just decoration with Harry Styles replacing Shia LaBeouf which was a major mistake.
The premise is Alice and Jack Chambers are a young, happy couple in the 1950s, living in the seemingly perfect company town of Victory, California, which has been created and paid for by the mysterious company for which Jack works. Curiosity about the nature of her husband's work on the secret "Victory Project" begins to consume Alice. Cracks then begin to form in their utopian life as her investigation into the project raises tensions within the community.
The beginning of the movie I thought Oh God another Stepford Wives but as it progressed it sort of got interesting with a surprise ending that had me asking is that all there is?… Expand

Don't Worry Darling (2022) is a movie my wife and I saw in theatres last night. The storyline follows an isolated 1950s community where the men go to work and the women stay home and clean and cook every day. Jack and Alice are the next hot couple on the rise where Jack is rising within his employer and Alice is rising within the social classes. When her best friend loses her minds and starts revealing things about the community, Alice starts realizing something isn't quiet right also.
This picture is directed by and stars Olivia Wilde (Booksmart) and also stars Florence Pugh (Midsommar), Harry Styles (Dunkirk), Chris Pine (Star Trek), KiKi Layne (If Beale Street Could Talk) and Gemma Chan (Crazy Rich Asians).
The storyline for this picture reminded me of a mix of Stepford Wives, Wanda Vision and Logan's Run. The premise has a lot of potential and was set up well; however, the movie doesn't unfold as well or intensely as I would have liked it to. The cinematography, attire, look and feel was perfect. The casting fit the premise well. Pine was a tremendous "villain." I even liked the subplots and backstory...but something feels a bit lacking the entire movie. While some of the dramatic scenes didn't work for me (the Saran Wrap scene and the face against the windows sequences), I will say from the discovery of what's going on through the end was entertaining and well executed.
Overall, this is one of those movies where the entire film it feels like it's missing something. You can't put your finger on it; but whatever "it" is, this is missing "it."… Expand

The juggernaut pop star is a disappointing actor. He has no emotion behind his words ,no conviction within his performance. He just says his lines in his fawned over accent and furrows his brow on&off making every scene of his an embarrassing trial by fire. It's evident clear his name is the only reason behind the casting decision. Olivia Wilde who struck a cord on her directorial debut,"Booksmarts" misses every mark her . She completely misses the point of her own story ,doesn't create captivating scenes laced with suspense, love or sadness (re:any fuvking emotion) . Instead she just sits as the movie aimlessly trudged along. It's unfortunate that the behind the scenes drama proved itself more interesting than the film itself.… Expand

The storyline owns no notes of creativity and repeats the same cliche of toxic dynamics in relationships; moreover, the in-your-face lack of chemistry between the so-called leads made me wince at times. Also, the overuse of jazzy tunes to reflect the era in question kinda threw me off the whole scent.

I’d recommend it if your in the mood for something more psychological, but don’t bring the kids. There are several sex acts the play out on screen that would leave an impression.

Update -
After giving it a day to think of this I've lowered my score from a 5 to a 3. It sucks. It's derivative to a fault. I don't hate it and I think it's still worth watching, but more to understand what not to do with your reveals and character development.… Expand

"Don't kick it, it's already dead!" A visually decent picture, however with bunch of mystery boxes and weak script being just another variation of Men Bad, Women Good. Boring.

I can't believe I wasted money on this aimless, movie containing numerous random, irrelevant scenes. Olivia Wilde should just give up directing. Her directing was amateurish and her attempts to be artsy just came across as pretentious. TheI can't believe I wasted money on this aimless, movie containing numerous random, irrelevant scenes.

The ending of this movie has to be the very worst in cinematic history.… Expand

Another woke bs trash can of a movie.. the fact that Olivia thought this was a good tactic to take has me just befuddled.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The script reminded me of the rambling essays I used to write in high school. Not knowing how to finish the story I would turn to that old chestnut "it was all a dream" (or in this case a VR simulation). Apart from Pugh, the acting was bad, poorly paced with several scenes that were defied explanation (was the tap dancing scene necessary?).… Expand

I just felt that there were many frames that not exactly a connection but that were edited in sequence, there are many holes and some things are left unexplained, being a doldrums in almost the entire film and a disorganized mess at the end. It has a lot of references, which makes the film without much originality, from several films that are not the ones that the director says she was inspired by. Some characters have no explanation, are not even necessary in the story or have contributed to the plot. But, it has good photography, and the scenery and clothes were indeed perfect. Harry's performance was very good, but Florence was the only one that made my time in the cinema worth it.… Expand
