Watch A Good Marriage For Free

Absolutely amazing

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

It's too late for me !! This was sooo bad What happened to Joan Allen!!!!!!

We actually enjoyed A Good Marriage. We were skeptical based on the reviews but it is much better than it's rating. It is a little slow in parts, but still a good thriller. Joan Allen is wonderful as always. Violence is tame and shouldn't offend too many.I wish that the movie had explored more with the family. We are just given a few scenes of how the family operates and it isn't much. A little too much time of Allen wondering around the house but if you have read the story, it is understandable. I agree with other reviewers in saying that the emotion did not translate. It is a decent movie with decent acting and a good story. So it isn't low budget and it isn't cheesy and worth a watch.

If it were not for Joan Allen's commitment to her role, I would say an absolute zero. This movie isn't suspenseful. In fact, it comes off as darkly humorous which may be the point. But, it's such a fine line that you can't but feel what this movie could've been.This movie is about talking in rooms. And the mundane life of marriage. Then they add in a twist, and the twist, had it been 1980's would've been groundbreaking. Now, because of our "48 Hours Mysteries" or "American Crime" shows, the shock value falls flat. And that's unfortunate for the material, because it does have nice moments. But it never comes together to feel like a completely movie. There are throwaway scenes, characters popping in and out, who are superfluous (which I'm sure in the book made more sense). And overall, the relationship between Allen and Anthony LaPaglia (who plays the husband) never felt right. No matter how often they professed their love of each other. The other frustrating thing about this movie is it never establishes a person we can identify with. I suppose Stephen Lang's character who comes in way too late. So it's strange it never fully taps the moments that could've uplifted it into something darker. LaPaglia's character (Bob) would've been better suited for someone more midwestern normal like Terry O'Quinn. Man, that guy is scary just being normal. Or Dylan Baker.Finally, the look of the movie. It's flat and dull. Every King movie up to this point is lens'd like a movie. This looks like a Lifetime special. Which I can't blame them, since it's digital and looks digital.There's suppose to be grit to movies. This looks like a student shot it. Awful. It actually took me completely away from the content of the movie. It had a phony sense to it. Done to extreme, say...a Douglas Sirk view, it would add a style to the material. This just seemed lost to what it wanted (or survival of coverage, just to get it shot). Either way, it's not a disaster of a movie. But it leaves you disappointed that King would slap his name on this.

This movie is a nice movie. Id probably recommend it. It is not very actiony nor is it very suspenseful. This movie is a slow thriller so if you have to have loud screaming or blood everywhere with a lot of suspense at every corner this is not it. This film does not leave you guessing, things are just out in the open and you know right away almost who is doing the awful things and everything. Also one of the main characters just simply puts everything out on the open so.. A lot of the big scenes that are the most suspenseful for this film are sorta in the trailer too. The rest of the film is mostly just like "uh oh what's one of the main characters gonna do?!" And that's okay. So I guess I would say it is a different type of thrill movie since most are not like this. It is not psychological or super fast action filled so don't expect that. I think maybe if you're a more mature person who can sit through A movie like this then great maybe this will be a nice simple thriller for you to see as it was for me. It's not really like other Stephen king films but it's different so. Give it a try.
