Soft & Quiet (2022)
1/10
Contrived and Unbelievable Characters
6 May 2023
Warning: Spoilers
The female leads, portrayed as out-of-the-closet bigots turned loose, were too ridiculously unbelievable to really hate, which weakened the motivation to care about their inevitable demise. The lead bully's discovery of a failed pregnancy...was that supposed to be her justification for starting a chapter of Nazis? Also weak was the stupid woman from Nebraska who for some reason spoke with a Southern accent(?), a mixed stereotype that ironically revealed the writer's own weird prejudices.

Admittedly, the means of their demise was uniquely done, it but didn't make up for the fact that even caricatures of bigots aren't this silly.
