Hateship Loveship.

There are few moments installed in here so perfectly that it becomes almost impossible to not be moved by it. Addition to that, the chemistry among the characters is what withholds the audience to it as it controls the energy of the cinema. The adapted screenplay by Mike Poirier is the real culprit in here as it is loosely placed in different interval or period of time that the audience sweats through the whole process on adjusting the timeline or tone of it. The script is gripping but not as smart as the writer thinks and neither is edited accordingly; it lacks better supervision. Liza Johnson; the director, is the key that unlocks this mystery with her brilliant execution skills that is not only supported but celebrated by an amazing cinematography; it is visually rich. Kirsten Wiig is a revelation in here as she pours out emotions like a rain on screen and is soothing and impactful throughout the course of it where she is supported decently by Guy Pearce and Jennifer Jason Leigh who although doesn't get that much screen time. Hateship Loveship is a relationship confused to the core whose structure is so eerie and convoluted that the audience fails to accept or adjust with it.
