We watch Darcy’s life quietly crumble before her eyes as she desperately tries to hide her anguish at discovering Bob is a serial killer.
Not everyone will be able to get into the slow burn of this movie, however for a story such as this one, there is no way to make it into an energetic and ruthless movie. Will Darcy overcome her love and fear to stop her menacing partner? Her so-called loving, caring, charming and funny father-of-her-children has an alter ego that lusts after young women, slaughter and deception. Unfortunately for Darcy she makes a grim and gruesome discovery about her husband, Bob’s true nature. Sometimes though, the truth is blurred by high expectations.Īfter 25 years of being blissfully married to her seemingly perfect husband, Darcy Anderson thinks that life has hit the good spot and she’ll continue living happily ever after. Nether the less, the premise of the story reminded me slightly of recent dark thrillers revolving around a sinister marriage, such as Gone Girl and Before I Go To Sleep, which were both book adaptations.
However, the dubious side of me always comes out to play when a novel is turned into a film, because written stories don’t always adapt particularly well once transformed into film state. There’s not many stories from King that I’ve been disappointed with as he manages to always add a unique and dark twist to any tale, whether horror or a little more thriller. Starring: Joan Allen, Anthony LaPaglia, Stephen Lang and Cara BuonoĪs a self proclaimed Stephen King fan, it was difficult to restrain my excitement at being sent the screener for A Good Marriage.
