Tragically boring. I was really looking forward to this one. The premise and the characters were really interesting and had so much potential, but everything was predictable. Waaaay too much telling instead of showing.

I really loved The Big Twist. I just wish I didn’t see it coming. It would have been more shocking if the exhibition scene was cut out (
the part when Lucy is at Jess’s art show and sees how her parents react to Jess’s painting of a fetus
).
