Don't Worry Darling, the movie directed by Olivia Wilde and starring Florence Pugh and Harry Styles, has received reviews from critics at the Venice Film Festival.
The focus of the
much-discussed film is on Alice and Jack, a seemingly ideal marriage played by
Pugh and Styles, whose existence in a business town near Los Angeles unravels.
Peter Bradshaw of The
Guardian scored the movie two stars when it made its festival debut outside of
competition.

However, The Telegraph
disagreed and gave it four stars.
An"unconvincing story
of dystopian suburbia," according to Bradshaw, the movie
"superciliously scrapes concepts from previous films without entirely
comprehending how and why they succeeded in the first place."
It is a film stranded in a
barren wasteland of unoriginality, and the wasteland doesn't bloom.
While Alex Ritman of the Hollywood Reporter said that the movie "produced a robust seven-minute standing ovation," Brian Viner of the Daily Mail gave it two stars, calling Styles' performance "a touch mechanical" in comparison to that of his co-star.
He stated, "The greater issue is that Don't Worry Darling really isn't very good.
Unfortunately, it contains
echoes of far better movies, such The Truman Show (1998) and the mid-1970s
masterpieces The Stepford Wives and One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest.
However, Pugh's acting and the "hints of Stepford in this citrus-sharp psychological thriller" were praised by Robbie Collin of the Telegraph.
"This may have been painful in a bad movie. However, Wilde's is thankfully mostly fantastic: the kind of rich yet approachable studio production that has all but disappeared since the 1990s."
In a three-star review,
Empire's Helen O'Hara stated the following: "Pugh is excellent, and Wilde
boldly accepts a larger topic and budget to produce a polished, lovely movie.
The journey up to that point is exciting, even though it doesn't quite stick
the landing."
