With just one week to go until their nuptials, the partially deaf 'Emma' (Zendaya) and 'Charlie' (Robert Pattinson) are nervously anticipating the big day. Planning is still incomplete as they sit down with friends 'Rachel' (Alana Haim) and her husband 'Mike' (Mamoudou Athie) for the onerous task of selecting the menu. The mushroom risotto seems to be a winner, though quite what was wrong with his idea of a cheeseburger I don't know, and so they turn their thoughts to the wine.

Impressive acting by Zendaya, better than in other movies.
Plot: Soon or later every couple discovers aspects of their partner they didn't expect and bring doubts. Unless you love one another and can't resist giving more chances, and realize everyone makes mistakes....

Days before walking down the aisle, what was supposed to be the making of a modern fairy tale turned into a psychological minefield for me. I went into The Drama expecting a quirky romance and got a punch in the gut disguised as social satire. The premise revolves around a shocking confession that completely challenged my views on morality, empathy, and how fragile appearances are in our era of constant scrutiny. Fair warning: if you're hitting the theater hoping for a lighthearted rom-com, you're going to crash headfirst into a very uncomfortable mirror of our own hypocrisies.

I have to ad...
