[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Widow's Bay?
Director clearly thought Widow's Bay was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Widow's Bay actually is?
Honestly, Widow's Bay would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Everyone praising the Widow's Bay performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

Unpopular opinion: Widow's Bay is the most overrated film of the decade
Look, I wanted to love Widow's Bay. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
