Men are afraid what women will say, women are afraid what men might do. This is the trailer quote. For good measure the Margaret Atwood quote is added on screen. "Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them" - Margaret Atwood. Now we know where we stand. Margot, a student, does a side job at a cinema when Robert, a regular there, asks for her phone number. Margot's friend Taylor keeps advising Margot about potential dangers from Robert and advises her how to keep Robert at arm's length. Robert claims to be a cat person but Margot doesn't see a cat on a short visit to Robert so this is a red flag that he might be a serial killer. Margot has a lecturer who informs her that some male ants will "get their "comeuppance" for not protecting their Queen and joyfully tells her that male Bees die from having sex the first and only time they do. Margot has sex with Robert when she doesn't really want to in order not to upset Robert who might do something if upset. So she pretends to have a good time and later dumps him by text. He's confused by all this having believed she reciprocated his feelings. Meanwhile Margot acts as if he's a serial killer.
I would say the first half is a dark comedy and the second half gets serious. I've only given it a 6 because it's not completely unwatchable but don't expect any serious answers as what to do about women who assume the worse of men.
