The acting by Vanessa Kirby was amazing! I think she really captures the grief of a parent really well. I think the film does a good part in showing that people grieve in different ways, and that can cause people to drift away from each other. I would've liked Shia LaBeouf's character fleshed out more, but I understand this is supposed to be the mom's story for the most part. I think the film takes a detour with the final climax towards the end, but overall pretty good.

The movie was okayish with a great ending. Tbh, I thought she was saving the apple seeds because having a lot of em can kill you (right?) but this was a more wholesome ending lol. I gotta say though: Shia's crying felt really fake and awkward to watch. Besides from that the performances were phenomenal; I just felt like some parts were moving a bit slow.

A frustrating watch, mostly because a couple of poor choices make this film way worse than it should be.
It probably will get nominated for best acting, and that’s well deserved, as the two leads are excellent.
A lot has been said about the first thirty minutes, and while I agree that it’s a g More

I feel like I can’t review “Pieces of a Woman” without first addressing the elephant in the room: the horrific and violent abuse claims against lead actor Shia LaBeouf. They’re so bad that Netflix has taken the man’s name off most ads for the film and, especially considering the subject ma More
