Are you ready to live the life you deserve?

Alice (Pugh) and Jack (Styles) are lucky to be living in the idealized community of Victory, the experimental company town housing the men who work for the top-secret Victory Project and their families. The 1950's societal optimism espoused by their CEO, Frank (Pine)-equal parts corporate visionary and motivational life coach-anchors every aspect of daily life in the tight-knit desert utopia.While the husbands spend every day inside the Victory Project Headquarters, working on the development of progressive materials, their wives-including Frank's elegant partner, Shelley (Chan)-get to spend their time enjoying the beauty, luxury and debauchery of their community. Life is perfect, with every resident's needs met by the company. All they ask in return is discretion and unquestioning commitment to the Victory cause.But when cracks in their idyllic life begin to appear, exposing flashes of something much more sinister lurking beneath the attractive facade, Alice can't help questioning exactly what they're doing in Victory, and why. Just how much is Alice willing to lose to expose what's really going on in this paradise?An audacious, twisted and visually stunning psychological thriller, Don't Worry Darling is a powerhouse feature from director Olivia Wilde that boasts intoxicating performances from Florence Pugh and Harry Styles, surrounded by the impressive and pitch-perfect cast.

PRODUCT REVIEWS

Set in the 1950s, following a housewife named Alice (Florence Pugh), who lives with her husband Jack (Harry Styles). Life for Alice is wonderful as she lives in a loving community filled with great friendships and beauty. Each day her husband goes to work and comes home to a clean house, and a lovely cooked meal and Alice greets him by the door, all dressed up. Life generally couldn’t be any simpler. However, Alice makes massive discoveries within the community, and things once classed as glamorous become increasingly alarming. As suspicions grow, Alice begins to doubt her husband’s work and questions the many rules, including never being able to leave the community. Can Alice discover the truth about life and the world she lives in? Don’t Worry Darling is best described as a thriller. The film hinges on one ultimate mystery- is everything around Alice true or false? It’s a highly familiar theme and concept, and many films with the same premise, such as The Truman Show, can be named. It should be no surprise that actress Florence Pugh shines brighter than gold here. Her character Alice has great determination and is a major highlight of this film. When major discoveries about her life are made, the character has strong emotions, and Pugh nails this role perfectly. Actor Chris Pine also has a strong presence on-screen whenever he appears and shines even more whenever he shares a scene with Florence Pugh. Harry Styles as Jack is generally fine and delivers a performance that doesn’t feel overly new or exciting. Packed with a comfortable soundtrack and great imagery, Don’t Worry Darling successfully consist of moments that build tension and make audiences feel uneasy. As for the dialogue, I can’t deny that some conversations and monologues go on far longer than ideal, making key scenes drag on. If certain trims were made, the film would feel far smoother with its pace and duration. While the story is exciting with its mystery, many moments are not explained, leaving some audience members confused and attempting to process all the minor mysteries presented throughout. The main plot makes sense at its core but is rather familiar and skips the mark of delivering something new or stepping into something wilder. Overall, while delivering a concept that feels very familiar with its thrilling aspect, Don’t Worry Darling brings a few solid moments to the screen, including the stunning performance from Florence Pugh, an unsettling soundtrack and creative visuals. However, with many moments that drag on far longer than I prefer and some dialogue that feels extremely clunky, the film misses its mark at leaving a lasting impression. Sure, the core plot is clear and makes sense; however, when it comes to the finer details, many viewers will be left scratching their heads with more questions than peaceful conclusions. * This review has been written for Sanity.
