The Nest (2020)

Looking up the title of this movie, I’ve seen it categorized as romance and psychological thriller. Do not trust the categorizing of movies on popular websites: lesson learned. Jude Law is pretty much the same as he always is; Carrie Coons is unrecognizable at first, which means she is also pretty much the same as she always is. The acting is actually pretty good, but the movie takes an hour to even reach the point that the audience had seen coming from the beginning: a man determined that he deserves great things, lives beyond his means to the detriment of his family. A story that has been done many times before and here it isn’t done in any new ways.
