Where to Watch The Loved One
- Ray Hopkin3d agoI enjoyed this, but not in the way the filmmakers intended to, I think. It has that biting satire familiar in Terry Southerns work, the acting was great, with a great cast (although Morse isn't brilliant, tbh), and it moves along at a good pace. It loses a star because it's a bit disjointed, and ultimately, it isn't that funny. It has some funny moments, but it's not funny enough to be classed as a comedy, and it's definitely classed as a comedy. So, enjoyable enough...
