If I Had Legs I'd Kick You (2025)

What's going on in Linda's life is just way too much. Her no-name daughter's nutrition is managed with an at-home feeding tube because she won't eat enough by mouth, her therapist is less than supportive, her own patients are a handful, no-name's doctors won't continue to treat no-name if her no-way weight goals aren't met, she's basically a single parent as her husband's job rarely brings him home and when he calls he only adds more stress, and now she's moved into a low-rent motel room with no-name because her own home's ceiling caved in. What she's dealing with would be enough to send most people over the edge. 

BUT all of that would've been enough (and probably way more affecting) without the distracting camera work. We spend so much time so close to Linda's face that I felt smothered by her grimaces. We never see the daughter's face, which reduces her to a constant whine of need -- so much so that when Linda would leave her alone in that sketch motel for hours at a time, I didn't spare a thought for the kid. Maybe that was the point? I don't know, but I hated everyone in this fucking movie except A$AP Rocky as the drug-procuring, ceiling hole verifying, resentful babysitting quasi-friend.
