What people are saying
Updated nightlyReactions are split and largely negative, with more people finding it a miss than a hit. The story, about a young actress drawn into her coach's controlling web, is described as familiar and thin, while a vocal few really tore into the glacial pacing. Ella Beatty's lead performance as Hannah, and Ari Graynor's as the coach Melanie, failed to land for those who mentioned them. Some credit director Sophia Takal for the film's unsettling mood, but it wasn't enough to salvage the experience for most.
