Okay, so I just saw "The Drama" tonight, and I have some mixed feelings about it...
Honestly, her "secret" actually surprised me. It was close to what I was expecting, but somehow even darker than I thought. That said, once that reveal happened, the movie kind of lost momentum and just drifted. It felt like not much was really happening after that point, like it was just stretching itself out until the ending.
There was so much more they could've done with that premise, and it never fully leaned in. The climax and ending were good, but even then, it still felt like it only scratched the surface of what it could've been.
And honestly, this is kind of my ongoing issue with A24 films... they get so close to something great, but rarely land it all the way. I always leave feeling underwhelmed by the execution.
