Review of Daffodils

Daffodils (2019)
4/10
Could be a solid "6" (spoilers on 3rd paragraph)
12 January 2020
Warning: Spoilers
IF it didnt have a plot blunder towards the end. I guess they wanted to provide a twist to the movie, and they did, but it ended exactly the oppsite way. The particular scene throws the viewer completely out of the movie and what was supposed to be the climax was actually disappointing, a big let down.

Could be a solid 6 maaaybe 6,5 (if there was an option) but no, the ending part messes an otherwise "ok" movie. I fail to follow the thinking of whoever is responsible for that scene, i am surprised it made it to the final cut.

Spoilers: For those wondering if its worth it, short answer is "No", keep on reading for the explanation. The movie is a typical boy meets girl, blah blah, they grow up blah blah, they make a family, blah blah, then the father of the boy dies at the appartment of his affair. Thats something boy has to keep a secret from his mother (although his mother already knows that her husband was unfaithful). Boy's wife smells the perfume (of dad's affair) and thinks that he cheats on her, she also sees them together in dad's funeral where the dad's affair went to give his watch to the boy (how bad plot is that, i'll let you decide, worse is coming).

Tension between boy-girl builds up until girl decides to split, the supposed climax is a few minutes of girl accusing boy and boys says nothing. No, really, thats it, they were a beautiful family but boy says nothing about being innocent and they end up in separate ways, for - practically - no - reason. Major dissapointment, i'd prefer them splitting over wrong babys milk temperature rather than that. There you have it, i hope i'll save someones time.
