The Girlfriend
I started it without much enthusiasm, but it hooked me. The Girlfriend has that kind of tension that makes you say “just one more episode” before you even realize it. It’s not groundbreaking, but it works. It looks good, flows easily, and has moments that really pull you in.
Robin Wright is great here — colder, stranger, more distant — and it suits her perfectly. Olivia Cooke shines too, full of energy and presence. Together they click, and you can tell they’re both fully invested.
The story is twisted, but never too much. There are turns, tension, and everything feels balanced. Visually, it’s beautiful — the houses, the clothes, the silences — it all adds to that sense of elegant chaos.
What I liked most is that it doesn’t take itself too seriously. It’s dark, yes, but with a wink of irony that keeps it fun and unpredictable.
In short, a stylish, confident thriller that’s easy to enjoy. Robin Wright surprises, Olivia Cooke lights up the screen, and together they make The Girlfriend well worth your time.
