The Deep Blue Sea (2011)


Grating violin music pierces through a monotonous opening sequence where the lead character attempts suicide. We’re then privy to a series of flashbacks that are supposed to show us how she arrived there. 

As the viewer, I really don’t care. The film hasn’t given me any reason to care at this point. And judging by how pretentious the scenes have been up to now, I wished she had succeeded in her life taking designs. 

So there’s an affair involved, of course. Overly dramatic conversations. Unlikeable characters. You know, all the things that make for a good time at the movies.

Rating: F
