StoryLine:

Backpacking as a couple is already a trust exercise, but in the slick thriller “Significant Other,” that exercise escalates into a triathlon of psychic fitness. The film’s modest facade proves a smoke screen for a rich and eventful ride; one plot development in particular hits with such surprise that it catches the audience far more unawares than the characters.Harry (Jake Lacy) and Ruth (Maika Monroe) have been together for six years when they embark on a backcountry camping trip. Ruth struggles with panic attacks, and the excursion, as well as the romantic obligation it implies, are triggers for her anxiety.Significant Other 2022 Movie Download

We accompany the twosome through dense thickets, and some clunky dialogue, ornamented with ominous portents. Then a startling twist zags the film into unknown territory.Lacy often plays a teddy bear; filmmakers have only recently begun to cash in on his potential to act against type. Here, he commits to an erratic role laced with humor, and the writer-directors Dan Berk and Robert Olsen milk Lacy’s grinning veneer for every comic drop. No stranger to chills and thrills, Monroe has a heavier assignment: For audiences to buy into the movie’s phenomena, her performance must contain several contradictory layers of meaning.Monroe’s solution is to act with subtlety, and Berk and Olsen balance this muted central character with some visual flair, such as a trembling close-up shot that mirrors Ruth’s shakiness during moments of panic. “Significant Other” does not reinvent the genre, but its narrative flourishes make for an exciting outing.A couple go into the woods on a Pacific Northwest backpacking adventure and discover something unforeseen… Dun, dun dun! That’s the premise of writer/directors Dan Berk and Robert Olsen’s latest, Significant Other, which reads about as stale as campsite jerky. But surprise, surprise, the duo know how to lay out their tropes like kindling and then burn them all down to mess with audience expectations. They also wisely rely on the skills of Maika Monroe and Jake Lacy, who play the established couple Ruth and Harry, to earn the bigger swings within the script and constantly keep us guessing.
