    Humor and Intrigue with Martinis

    Vlogger turns crime sleuth after becoming “friends” with her son’s best friend’s glamorous mommy who isn’t everything she appears to be. Anna Kendrick shines as Stephanie, and her chemistry with both Blake and Henry keeps it all the more interesting as the film veers to its inevitable conclusion.

    If you liked the first movie, you’ll probably like this one as well

    Great segue from the first movie. A little raunchy, a lot funny, occasionally too stupid, but overall entertaining.

    Gossip Girl Meets Gone Girl With a Twist of Martini

    A Simple Favor is like if your mom’s book club thriller got blackout drunk and decided to wear stilettos. It’s stylish, suspenseful, and just unhinged enough to make you text your best friend “Are you secretly a criminal mastermind or…?”Blake Lively slays in tailored suits and icy stares, while Anna Kendrick plays the peppy mom-vlogger with more nervous energy than a chihuahua at a fireworks show. The plot twists come faster than your kid’s excuses at bedtime, and just when you think you’ve figured it out—bam! Another body, another martini, another questionable outfit choice.Highly recommend if you love true crime podcasts, Pinterest moms, and asking “wait WHAT just happened?” at least seven times.

    Great show

    This movie is actually pretty good for being a sequel. As good as the first one. You do need to watch the first one to really understand what is happening in this movie. You could watch it on its own but would leave some lingering questions

    Great watch!

    With all the drama the second movie I had to watch this one. I really enjoyed the plot line and thought the movie was great. I liked the characters and thought it was easy to follow along.

    A decent B movie. Not boring

    Good story line and I bought it to see this before the sequel becomes available on Amazon. Certainly a b movie but not boring. If i see a movie i love, i am likely to buy it because i will rewatch it often. If i could have seen this movie for free, I would not buy it because i don’t want to watch it again. Maybe just me but I feel like Blake might really be the character she plays in this movie. Just a creepy feeling.

    Better Than the First!

    This sequel was even better than the first movie. It’s a fun dark comedy and murder mystery with a few twists that keep you guessing. The chemistry between Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively is great and they have more scenes together in this sequel, which to me makes the movie better. The entire cast is great. The location beautiful. Excellent sountrack, again. I’m looking forward to a third ASF.

    Martinis, Mayhem, and Mom Vlogs — Yes, Please!

    Okay, so A Simple Favor is basically what happens when a perky mommy vlogger and a glamorous, mystery-filled fashion queen collide in the most deliciously twisted way possible. Anna Kendrick plays the “too cute for real life” Stephanie, who somehow thinks vlogging her every move is normal, and Blake Lively is Emily — basically the coolest, most secretive friend you wish you had (but probably wouldn’t trust).This movie has more plot twists than your favorite reality show, plus enough martinis to make you want to pour one for yourself ASAP. It’s funny, stylish, and packed with enough sass and secrets to keep you hooked. Plus, watching these two go at it? Total entertainment.Bottom line: If you want a thriller that’s less scary and more snarky, with killer outfits to boot, A Simple Favor is your new obsession. Grab your wine, settle in, and enjoy the ride.

    Excellent movie with Hitchcockian and film noir elements to darkly delight!

    Based on Darcey Bell’s novel of the same name, A Simple Favor darkly delights from beginning to end with mystery and thrills reminiscent of Hitchcock and film noir elements. With a screenplay by Jessica Sharzer and direction from Paul Feig, mostly known for his comedies, A Simple Favor will enthrall audiences.Stephanie Smothers is a widowed mother to her young son Miles and trying to build a career as a mom vlogger while maintaining a positive attitude. One day after her son’s school lets out, Stephanie meets and befriends Emily Nelson, a successful PR director for stylist Dennis Nylon and mother of Miles’ friend Nicky. Stephanie and Emily become close as they share cocktails and chats after their sons are picked up from school each day. Emily sardonically reveals that she and her husband Sean are facing financial struggles and problems in their marriage, as well as her unhappiness in life. In turn Stephanie reveals her struggles as a single mom when her husband and older half-brother died in the same car accident, and that she had an unhealthy relationship with her sibling.Everything changes when one day Emily asks Stephanie for a favor to watch Nicky while she handles a work crisis and Sean is away in London tending to his sick mother. Stephanie agrees but becomes alarmed when days go by without any contact from Emily and vice versa. While Stephanie and Sean work together to find Emily and solve her disappearance, unexpected twists and turns occur and secrets of Emily’s shady past are revealed. The chain of events lead Stephanie to discover shocking truths about Emily and unravel dark mysteries that may have better been left hidden.With good cinematography and an excellent soundtrack and musical score, A Simple Favor provides plenty of dark humored enjoyment with twists and thrills. Veteran actresses Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick have excellent chemistry as new found friends Emily and Stephanie. In one of their best roles, Lively brings out Emily’s mysterious beauty and charm while Kendrick brings annoying bubbly delight. Then rising star Henry Golding, who would work with Feig the following year on Last Christmas, was just off the success of Crazy Rich Asians and brings charm and vulnerability to Emily’s husband Sean who desires to reclaim his once successful writing career. The rest of the supporting cast includes Jean Smart, Andrew Randalls, and a scene stealing Rupert Friend (playing Dennis Nylon) who provide excellent comic relief both darkly and lightly.The true highlights of A Simple Favor rest with costume designer Renee Ehrlich Kalfus and an excellent soundtrack that fits the overall themes. The soundtrack, which includes Brigitte Bardot’s iconic Bonnie and Clyde, give an excellent feel and homage to French music and its place in cinema history (look out for the nod to 1955’s Diabolique). Kalfus’ costume designs are stylish and fit well with the characters, particularly Emily whose choices match her high profile PR career for a celebrated stylist.Check out A Simple Favor today and add it to your physical library in crystal clear Blu-Ray and a handful of special features. Be sure to grab a cocktail for the viewing!
