Max is a real jerk. A long time ago, the successful lawyer had turned over all the routine duties of family life to his wife Nathalie.His comfort and leisure time were a far greater priority.

No way!But then, Max’s fast-paced life suddenly screeches to a halt when Nathalie is hospitalized for several weeks with a complicated fracture.Alone with their two children and the dog he hates, Max quickly reaches the boiling point.As if having to play father was not bad enough, he is shocked to the core when he discovers passionate love letters written to his wife and signed “From G. in love”. Feeling that his life is slipping out of control, Max’s first impulse is to find out who his rival is. Then it dawns on him – could the way he has treated his wife be the reason why she has sought out another lover?Now Max attempts to see his situation from a different point of view. Last week he was ready to plan the yearly guys’ vacation he takes with his best buddy, but now things have changed.Max recognizes just how much he needs Nathalie’s humor, her organizing talent and her optimism, but also just how important to him she and his family really are. Max tries to discover the mysterious lover’s identity, but because of his new insight, he takes an additional step.Unfortunately, when he learns that the mystery man is Gregor, Max realizes that not only does the man have all those qualities - he is very attractive as well. His struggle to become a better husband and father suddenly becomes far more difficult.Hoping to knock Gregor out of the picture and get back in Nathalie’s good graces, Max makes an appointment with a successful life coach. But turning his life around is far more difficult than he had imagined.To make matters worse, Gregor turns out to be a loving, family-oriented man just what Nathalie needs. Max is desperate – he knows there is a real chance that he might lose Nathalie and the children.Willing to put everything on the line to keep his family intact, Max makes the biggest sacrifice of his life. Then something happens that is the very last thing he could have ever counted on…
女性电影成了这几年的热门了。牧师代表的宗教，警察代表的公权力，小孩代表的与生俱来对女性的追捕与厌恶……整个小村都是男人，代表无所不在的男权社会对女性的包围伤害，而他们还要冠以“想要得到你的爱”的名义。
不可描述的不适，有些电影你看过了，真希望自己从没看过。
既厌女又恐男的片子，两边都想讨好，加兰还挺心机的。
婚姻生活后遗症产生的精神病气，迭代分娩只为得到虚幻的爱。
没看懂说实话，不过被男人生孩子内段震到了，就这个思路能给五了，恐怖片里算是很恐怖的场景了，👏👏

High concept low execution. 概念真的很棒很棒，就是本子和男主演欠了点事儿。
开头的血雨给人极大的期待，随后的自然主义视觉奇观也确实展现了加兰的功力。但叙事层面的孱弱让人难以接受。一遍遍的闪回没有丝毫层次可言，所传达的信息重复不说，想强调女主的心理恐惧也没有递进，仿佛在给小朋友讲故事，生怕观众听不懂，或许也是因为实在没有东西可讲，只想在营造视觉的同时加点叙事。男权社会下无所不在的女性压迫虽然是个很好的主题，但如此直白的隐喻实在简单无脑（罗里·金尼尔一人饰多角的演技还是值得称赞的）。结尾时的男人单性繁殖更是败笔，初看时确实有看《钛》《未来罪行》般身体恐怖的感受，但重复的脱胎过程让这种恐怖感逐渐降低，直到视觉产生疲劳，最后变成无趣。
对千奇百怪以爱为名的控制和占有说f*ck off；以及我实在很纠结为啥女主对房东说自己不会弹琴，连闺蜜都不知道她弹琴超好，歪？？？
前半部分以为是个恐怖片，后半部分我和女主都一脸冷漠：哦，渲染了半天竟然是要表演肛生子啊，行吧🙄
这部电影是一场死者对生者的成功PUA。女主角在整部电影中不断地回溯过去和自我省查，想要弄清自己是否应该对前夫的自杀承担道义上的责任。电影中出现的男性配角均有代表性。代表宗教的神父，责问女主角，在遭到家暴后是否给前夫道歉的机会。代表法律的警察，认为跟踪女主角的裸体男子不该被起诉。天真的孩子，对不愿陪自己玩耍的女主角口吐芬芳。平庸的房东，认为替女主角搬行李和付酒钱是自己的神圣义务。而跳楼自杀的前夫，则希望用自己的死来让女主角的良心受折磨。女主角在电影中的形象是较为中性的，利落的短发，毫不暴露的衣着，轮廓硬朗的五官，加上据人于千里之外的语气，但是这并没有屏蔽掉男人们对她的凝视和想象。在这个由男性主导的世界里，PUA无处不在，就像弥漫在风中的蒲公英种子，到处寻找生根发芽的土壤。
前一小时好过后一小时，最后套娃场面实在是好恶。传递的道理直白到无非是——男人，一切创伤的来源。
这两年很流行这种类型的恐怖片，美轮美奂的风景镜头+迷幻的音乐+离奇夸张的符号隐喻，营造出一种梦境般的割裂。最后的连环生子还挺恶心的。远离男人，不然男人死也不会放过你的。
我看到的隐喻：裸男的蒲公英-男人SJ、牧师-意淫口嗨伪君子、警察-强权压迫、丈夫-肢体暴力情感绑架威胁 面具男stupid bitch-网络及现实言语暴力攻击。何以解忧？唯有斧子。心理暗示类精神恐惧片 还不错-96 虽然用非要独自一人去乡下放假 走山洞这种无脑又老掉牙的套路但去描写女性的角度可加分
差点吐了。导演牛逼。这种又恶心又怪又疼又能共情到的感觉真的太久没有过了。
厌女的视角、厌男的视角、厌恶人类的视角各看一遍试试
暴力伤害、身体侵犯、荡妇羞辱、宗教训诫、道德指摘、情感勒索、权力支配、母职绑架、生殖压迫……一边集齐厌女的层层面向，一边剖开女性的深层恐惧。接踵而至的嵌套式厄运，如梦魇和回声般循环往复阴魂不散。最后的血腥套娃场面简直惊世骇俗。
像是Kaufman的劇情，再配Garland的美學，太拼貼了🤯
我靠 其实本来都觉得无聊了，但后来开始套娃实在精彩。比钛那段还来劲。
一个借助影像手段的表现艺术作品。作为电影观感不佳，建议避开。
