A “terrifying” satire on Hulu about a not so adorable pooch.
Premise
Maggie is at a crux. She is fired from the job, undergoes hormone treatment to have her eggs extracted and frozen, is on the dating scene in search of Mr. Perfect, and while she awaits all the grand events in her life to happen, she recurs to mindfulness and to adopting a sweet emotional support pooch. The canine will not be as wonderful as she had expected, as she soon will realize. It will act out, channeling any anxiety she feels, and he will do so in horrifying ways.
Movie Review
A movie produced for TV, back in 2020โฆ. It is a horror comedy about a very, very bad boy that kills anyone who annoys its owner. An owner who with all her perfect handling of life, has so much pent-up anger, yet manages to suppress it with mindfulness and doing her best to be a โgoodโ 39 year-old โgirlโ. Little did she know it would rear its ugly head out somehow, and in the most unexpected of ways.
It is a contemporary satire that is sweetly biting. The storyline is good, as is the script, and it is perfect if you want to spend an hour and half watching good performances (especially those by Judy Greer as Maggie and Steve Guttenberg as Don, the chief editor of The Valley Yeller), and having a gratuitous laugh or two (yes, it is funny).
