Significant Other

Ruth (Maika Monroe) and Harry (Jake Lacy) go on a hiking weekend in the woods of the Pacific Northwest. She's anxious about it but he tries to put her at ease.

Secretly Harry intends to propose at a beautiful overlook.

No good will come of this.

CW: some gore

This is old fashioned sci-fi and I mean that as a compliment.

Short and to the point at under 90 minutes it's a classic what-if on one of the basic topics of what it means to be human. It's a "they don't make movies like this any more" movie.

The two leads are great and while it's not showy or going to be gracing anybody's favourite movies list it's a lovely little surprising watch that is like a good black and white Twilight Zone episode reborn.

Highly recommend 7/10.
