Maggie Moore(s) (2023)
While investigating the odd case of two women with the same name being murdered days apart, the police chief (Jon Hamm) meets the neighbor (Tina Fey) of one of the victims and hits it off. He's a widow and she's a divorcee who's still fuck buddies with her emotionally abusive ex. Hamm and Fey's scenes are the best thing here, it's just too bad their relationship isn't the main thing in the movie... or is it?
Actually, it's hard to pick out what we're supposed to focus on, there's just so much happening and every character has a tad too much personality. I was entertained, but ultimately the story just felt like an example of a story to which "kill your darlings" should've been applied.
