Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively shine in this fun, sexy, mystery. Playing moms who couldn't be more different, they form an unlikely friendship that leads to something much more when Ms. Lively's character Emily disappears from their quiet Connecticut town.
Directed by Paul Feig and based on the popular novel, the film is lighthearted fun but has dark twists and turns that Mr. Feig balances beautifully. The film co-stars Henry Golding as Emily's husband Sean and also features Andrew Rannells, Linda Cardellini, Bashir Salahuddin, Rupert Friend and Jean Smart.
Fans of "Big Little Lies" and that genre will love this film. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. It sneaks up on you and ventures into unexpected directions. Ms. Kendrick and Ms. Lively are so perfect, it's a pleasure to watch them together even as things get nasty.
