Kids are hard


Tully (2018)

Directed by Jason Reitman this film stars Charlize Theron, Mackenzie Davis and Ron Livingston. Following the birth of her third child a woman struggles with the baby while her husband is zoned out.

To be honest I found this film to be a bit of a disappointment, it is not a bad film but I'm not sure it ever really tackles the protagonists problems. Certainly the film highlights some of the universal issues of motherhood but the reality is it is the husband that is the issue not a problem with the wife. There are some decent performances but the script could have connected with the subject matter better in my opinion.

3/5
