It was made for my wife. It's a simple and unbelieveable plot that does tension well about a single mother who finds the world's best first date. Most men would have thought something was up and bailed pretty fast. So it's getting a 10 of 10 because it featured a straight white male who was a good guy, and not evil personified. He was a good person and pretty heroic and that is a total change of pace from the woke trash. And the woke trash is why it's getting a 10. It had no political messaging. It didn't lecture at all. I have long been tired of movies that are nothing but propaganda to push a narrative, and this didn't have that... and as unbelievable as the plot was, you could suspend your disbelief. That's what it didn't have. What it did have was tension. It had mystery. It had a first date that was a little too unbelievable, the dude was an angel.... but it did have a female lead that really nailed the role, acted like an actual female would act, was a caring mother, and deliveredn tension... and the tension was done extremely well for such a small film. It's made for women... REAL women... women like my wife who want to see movies like this rather than Captain Marvel. But it's something where I actually put down what I was reading because it sucked me in as well. Overall, it was one of the better films and, being made in 2025, it **ACTUALLY ENTERTAINED** I'm not used to that, I sort of look at everything past 2016 with an eye roll, and thing it's just going to be propaganda, push an agenda, and when you end up hating it they blame you for not being properly brainwashed. I had low hopes, but the people who made this, they just made a movie that was fun to watch, and I miss that. I really seriously miss movies that just entertain. **Great job.**

<em>'Drop'</em> is a great thriller! I was hooked for every minute. It gave me vibes of 2024's <em>'Carry-On'</em>, which is a film I also enjoyed. This one - albeit certainly different - has similarities, but it is much more atmospheric. It left me on fair tenterhooks, that's for sure. The performances are excellent, particularly from leads Meghann Fahy and Brandon Sklenar. In the midst of the drama, there is actually a pretty solid romance in there featuring those two; they share terrific chemistry, despite also giving the necessary edge of first date awkwardness. I enjoyed how the film portrayed the messaging, each one is shown onscreen in a clear but not in an in-your-face or an eyesore-y manner; the font/effects fitted with the ambience that the film was setting up. It takes a basic plot device and impressively creates a mountain of thrill.

Great movie. Was very interesting without a single boring moment. Also, it was a clean movie without DEI propaganda and political messages which is another good thing. I think from now on we will see less and less propaganda movies since Trump won the presidency, which is again a good thing.
