Amanda D @RT33199576 May 12 I haven't even finished it yet and I don't like it. The acting is poor, and the increasing insanity felt throughout the book is not present, significantly changing the entire plot. This book is about a woman devolving into psychosis, not her husband's control or feminism. The movie is a complete misrepresentation of the book.

I'd be anxious to paint that room. That was the funny part to me how accepting they were about it. I'd get the paint brush out. So the wallpaper was the strangest thing in the entire movie. A bit depressing 😭 See more Mom B @RT68392227 10/14/2023 Terrible acting! I'm just ten minutes into this movie and already want to turn it off! The acting is so stillted, it's horrible! They're just lobbing their lines back&forth at each other w.absolutely no emotion behind them whatsoever! Robots would emote better See more nils h @RT02892465 11/26/2022 I guess this is a student-production? The acting is not even acting, just reading lines. The costumes are " done" by a totally period-blind person. Did the team just go to the local Theatre to borrow whatever fitted the actors ? Pretty setting, but thats all. No need to see.

Is A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night or Suspiria (both versions) also feminist horror? The Yellow Wallpaper intrigued me, and after I finished, I read the original text on which it's based. Both are great, but for different reasons. The film abides by the emotion and spirit of the novella but takes on modern interpretations. I can't say what because it might give parts away. The foreboding house and creepiness of the situation got under my skin, and I couldn't help but watch the ending in horror. Or maybe it was the tense soundtrack. I wished some scenes were shorter, but I think that of every movie I've watched (including Dune) in the last year, chalking that up to Covid isolation. But, oh hell, I think I'll watch it again with my wife. See more Read all reviews
