FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://www.msbreviews.com/movie-reviews/deep-water-spoiler-free-review
"Deep Water sells itself as an erotic thriller, but it lacks precisely those same components. Adrian Lyne tries to make a comeback after a twenty-year absence from cinema, but Zach Helm and Sam Levinson's screenplay holds too many problems.
The protagonists couldn't be more awful people in an incredibly toxic relationship that's frustrating to watch, but their lack of development and inexistent arcs make the narrative feel repetitive, predictable, and lacking intensity.
The messy approach to the secondary characters and subplots contributes to an absolutely disastrous script, where not even a traditional third act can be found.
In the end, Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas are actually good, so there's something to appreciate."
Rating: D
