Five Days is About Right
23 November 2023
So Five Days is a somewhat formulaic murder mystery that still manages to be kind of entertaining. Clark is a likeable enough actor but I feel that he was a bit weak in this performance, and Chevreau was equally underwhelming. Carpenter and Gregory on the other hand were solid and helped to elevate the proceedings. The remainder of the cast and performances were serviceable. There is a bit of a plot twist toward the end of the film but rather mild and not really all that surprising. The twist wasn't really surprising at all because despite an apparently deep almost obsessive love for his wife, he treated her very poorly and showed her little respect. Not a great film by any means but still kind of fun to check out if you have 70 minutes and are curious.
