4356 - YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT (USA, 2020)


YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT (USA, 2020)
- Kevin Bacon is always interesting to see acting and he does a good job here, carrying most of this film literally on his shoulders. The cinematography is eye-pleasing (yep, Amanda Seyfried is there) and the music and atmosphere are immersive. Together with a sufficient run time that does not get long and tiring, these elements make it a good combo for a film to watch if you have no better alternative. The main issue in this film is the dialogue and a not-so-original script. It’s difficult to say this is a great psychological thriller while its dialogue is a little bit perfunctory. Luckily there is not that much dialogue in the second half of the film, so you can enjoy a bit of the experience of a thriller which is not meant to jump-scare you, but to give you an eerie feeling overall.
