Close to Me (2021)
7/10
Gripping who dunnit.
17 November 2021
Interesting so many bad reviews on here. Definitely seems polarising and not usually my thing to seek out but was pleasantly surprised.

In many ways it was reminiscent of Girl on a Train and Momento.

Jo has a memory gap from her fall down the stairs and her phone is missing. Her husband seems caring but also volatile. From the outset it feels like half truths are being told and then the dreams and flashbacks start shortly followers by hallucinations. What is real? What isn't? How did she end up badly injured at the bottom of the stairs? The outcome however is a little predictable and some of the characters are cringe worthy. Could have easily have been two episodes shorter without missing much. Overall, if you're stuck in isolation with nothing else more pressing, it's worth a binge.
