Augustus Prew really said, “I’m going to be so babygirl” during Moonacre, despite playing the scary bad boy, being the most romantic boy of all time, despite not once saying a single overtly romantic word.

With Players on Netflix, Trish Sie and Gina Rodriguez bring us a story that looks like a romantic comedy, (and also kind of a heist movie) but is really about found family, friends before f***s and the importance of staying true to yourself.

(The supporting cast is wonderful. Also there is a disaster bisexual who is an absolute delight to watch)

A sports writer unused to relationships falls for a fling, leading her to reconsider playing the field in favor of commitment.

You frequently feel awkward how predictable and by-the-numbers the plot of this rom-com is. But the very likable cast, good pacing and some funny dialogue makes it still worth watching when you need a break from the real-world news.

DEAR DAVID - Review

DISTRIBUTOR: Lionsgate

SYNOPSIS: “Shortly after comic artist Adam responds to Internet trolls, he begins experiencing sleep paralysis — while an empty rocking chair moves in the corner of his apartment. As he chronicles increasingly malevolent occurrences in a series of tweets, Adam begins to believe he is being haunted by the ghost of a dead child named David. Encouraged by his boss to continue the “Dear David” thread, Adam starts to lose his grip on what is online…and what is real. Based on the viral Twitter thread by BuzzFeed comic artist Adam Ellis.” -Press Release

REVIEW: Filmmaker John McPhail takes the helm on DEAR DAVID, a genre film inspired by the events behind the 2017 “Dear David” Twitter thread. Created by cartoonist Adam Ellis, who was working for BuzzFeed at the time, the film presents a complex character who, in dealing with this supernatural force, must deal with his own personal demons.

Remotely familiar with the “Dear David” Twitter story, the film sets up the premise of David being a child who is bullied online. Something transpires. As Adam digs into the story, David is presented with a murky disposition and may not be innocent. Adam is initially drawn in when David responds to one of his tweets and what ensues feels a bit like “The Ring.” What is interesting is Adam’s character arc. As he becomes consumed by this nightmare, certain traits surface that have his friends and love drawing away from him. One could easily believe his supernatural predicament might be an extension of his stressed-filled job, but the story builds the foundation of David’s story and it clearly becomes a menacing force in Adam’s life. The film opens on David’s story, but DEAR DAVID is the story of Adam Ellis and his struggles with real life and supernatural forces as he fights to take control of his life.

Actor Augustus Prew is a veteran actor who carries the weight of the narrative. He creates a charming character who begins to take on darker tones as the supernatural entity complicates his life. He manages to maintain a level of sympathy and never presents an unlikable character. His performance provides access to a wide audience and easily takes them along for the ride. Actor Cameron Nicoll plays David. It’s an effective performance, but I don’t feel he gets enough screen time to present a rounded character. We become aware that the character has a darkside, but it is not fully formed, or presented as pure evil as Samara in “The Ring.” Still, it is creepy enough to add a sense of dread to the character.

There is an element to the production values that left me feeling that the film was a made for tv project. That is not a bad thing when you consider the state of the art of made for tv movies. There is something fresh and stark to the look of the film. There is nice interplay between light, shadows and colors, and there is this grounded look to the city and locations. The film captures many exteriors that clearly make this a New York Story and I believed it. McPhail creates a tone and atmosphere to the film similar to that of “Anna & the Apocalypse.” There are horror elements and keeps the film grounded. There are these extraordinary, supernatural elements, but they exist parallel to “reality.” Adam has entered David’s nightmare but he still moves through daily life. The special and visual effects are subtle touches, and this is not a gory film, relying on more traditional scares. Composers Tommy Reilly & Roddy Hart’s score nicely accentuates those moments adding another level to the atmosphere and playing on the viewer’s expectations.

DEAR DAVID is an interesting and engaging take on the story behind the events of 2017. What easily could have been a typical genre film looking to inspire a franchise, John McPhail delivers a character driven tale that presents a story arc that is influenced by the supernatural elements. It is not as in depth character study as any of the films based on Shirley Jackson’s “The Haunting,” but McPhail’s film has more in common with that type of cinematic thriller. It’s great to see him still working in the genre and I look forward to some of his other potential forthcoming films.
