I’ve been writing about video games, television and movies for Forbes for over 10 years, and you may have seen my reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. I cover all manner of console and PC games, but if it’s about looting or shooting, I’m definitely there. If I’m watching something, it’s usually science fiction, horror or superheroic.
top 10 movie list, as something I highly recommended as a must-see given the “it’s so bad it’s good” nature of it. But now the new #1 movie is…good. Just very good.
That would be A Simple Favor, a 2018 film starring Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively, both of whom haven’t been acting in quite as high profile projects lately, but it’s been announced they will return for a sequel set in Capri, Italy. The boost the movie will get from Netflix will certainly help generate some interest in that, I imagine.
The genre here is...interesting. It’s said to be a “black comedy crime thriller” and I’d certainly add “mystery” in there as well. It’s just a very enjoyable film, and follows Kendrick’s character trying to solve the disappearance of her “elegant and mysterious” friend played by Lively. The fact that there’s a sequel indicates that yeah, she found her, but it’s a great film.from critics, pretty high for the genre, though if most people have not seen it, I would not be shocked.
It’s R-rated so it’s not exactly a family flick to watch on a weekend evening, depending on the ages of your kids, but it’s hardly graphic and I think most will end up enjoying it quite a bit. Both Kendrick and especially Lively here are amazing, and after rewatching this, I cannot wait to see them return for a sequel. I am sort of getting White Lotus vibes here, though obviously this existed before White Lotus was even a thing.
