“A hair-raising third act adds an unusual coda — one that I, after only one viewing, am still processing. The relief, however, is in the filmmakers’ approach to these tense scenes: Fogel and Ashford loosen their grip, at last trusting us to sit in our disc”~Lovia Gyarkye, The Hollywood Reporter
Aroview: An extended film adaptation of a 2017 'New Yorker' short story that went viral on account of its wildly relatable tale of a young millennial woman's fraught dating experience in the digital age.
It initially plays like an indie rom-com as it deals with the familiar fumbles of people getting to know one another, then cooks up a darker turn for its third act which, though unhinged from the original story, keeps hold of a solid thematic integrity. Emilia Jones and Nicholas Braun (Greg from "Succession") keep it always watchable, as does Geraldine Viswanathan as her scene-stealing sidekick.

2 stars (Good Try) I nearly came to like this - I don't know where they dug the male up from but he was a little different. It was too long however for the material and it would have been better with a more compact screenplay. ~Tubbs
