Oh, Hi! (#709)


The movies seem to get worse as the week goes on.  Yesterday's film, OH, HI!, is described as a comedy but it really was not funny. I'd describe it as a sexual drama, maybe tragedy. A young couple, Iris and Isaac, are driving away for their first romantic weekend together to a rental house in the country. He proposes that he handcuff her to the bed for a new sexual experience and she agrees, but after she is handcuffed, she changes her mind and proposes to do it to him. He allows her to fasten both hands and feet to the bed and in their conversation he admits he's been with other women and she complains that she has thought of him as the only one and leaves the room in anger and hurt. She calls her best friend to help her resolve the situation and Max shows up with her boyfriend or husband. And it goes further downhill from there. I admit I stayed to the bitter end, hoping that something would happen to redeem the picture but it didn't. I also admit that I left THE HOME (the movie in my previous review) before it was finished. I was wondering if critics and audiences would love this silly movie but they didn't. Only 61% of critics and 70% of audiences gave it a thumbs up.
