'What a bummer that all the drama in 'Don't Worry Darling,' ... happened off camera.'
Warner Bros. Pictures
Now that would be a movie. What a bummer that all the drama in "Don't Worry Darling," only in theaters, happened off camera. What's on screen is a glossy, repetitive retread of "The Stepford Wives" with a dash of "The Truman Show" and no discernible personality of its own. Styles struggles to find depth in a role once intended for Shia LaBeouf, who has publicly insisted that he quit and was not fired by Wilde, who has remained mum about casting boyfriend Styles and her troubles with Pugh. "The internet feeds itself," Wilde told reporters earlier this month at a Venice International Film Festival press conference for the movie. Her focus is on the film.
If Alice is turned on going at it with Jack on the dining-room table, then why do we see her wrapping her head in plastic or imagining the walls closing in on her.The underlying theme in the script by Katie Silberman is certainly timely, what with women's rights under assault today in ways that are all too real and frightening. But Wilde never delivers on the sharp-edged satire -- the kind that draws blood --that the setup promises.
