Review of Tully (2018) by Bigscreen454 — 14 Mar 2019
Honestly, I didn’t mean to rent this film and wanted to rent the film Gringo also starring Charlize Theron and got confused and ended up with this one. Gringo is a comedy, Tully is not. In fact, it's kind of depressing, so that was annoying.
Anyway, it's pretty good if you want to see a Mother played by Charlize Theron struggle with the pain of breastfeeding and have to go to extreme measures to relieve it thanks to a midwife character played by Mackenzie Davis (Tully) that comes to her rescue.
I’m not sure Charlize wore a fat suit for this or had a great stunt double likely for some parts but the pregnant suit looks phenomenal! Another interesting scene is when she is carrying that extra weight from being preggers, she decides to have a foot race with a woman in booty shorts and hyperventilates, another strange but believable pregnant woman moment.
She has a bad day and the struggle is real as the kids say. Overall it's more like an arthouse film for the slice of life Sundance style depressing story but a good story.
