Acerca de esta película

Can you really go through life having never wronged anyone? Even if you are unaware of how, or when, and even who you may have wronged… chances are there is someone out there who won’t ever forget it…or you. Simon (Jason Bateman) and Robyn (Rebecca Hall) are a young married couple whose life is going just as planned until a chance encounter with an acquaintance from Simon’s high school sends their world into a harrowing tailspin. Simon doesn’t recognize Gordo (Joel Edgerton) at first, but after a series of uninvited encounters and mysterious gifts prove troubling, a horrifying secret from the past is uncovered after more than 20 years. As Robyn learns the unsettling truth about what happened between Simon and Gordo, she starts to question: how well do we really know the people closest to us, and are past bygones ever really bygones? From the producer of Whiplash and The Purge, Jason Blum, comes a chilling psychological thriller that marks the feature directorial debut of acclaimed actor and writer Joel Edgerton (The Great Gatsby, Zero Dark Thirty, Warrior).

Wanted to like this a lot since I saw the trailer which looked different, and some reviews out giving it a good rating. Was truly hoping for the different twist ending, but just didn't pan out for me other than simply one guy hurting other guy explanation. This movie completely lost me. Didn't understand the whole premise of the bullying aspect in this movies' explanation for a character's motive. I didn't see or feel any harsh treatment portrayed in the way one character was treated in this movies' past.

Okay I just seen this movie for the first time last night and I absolutely loved it I didn't know what was going to happen next! The only reason I gave it 4/5 stars is because the ending aucked literally.... Spoiler alert! I didn't really get who's baby it was is it gordos or is it Simons even tho gordo said he didn't touch her he was weird as'f and I don't believe him lol

I enjoyed this movie very much, shows you how bullying doesn't just go away and follows a person the rest of their lives. The movie was a bit "mature" and requires patience and comprehensive skills and could get boring depending on the viewer, but I found it refreshing and different than the usual horror/suspense movies I normally watch..good movie though. This is definitely a rental BTW.
