Biggest Swing

The film dips to its lowest point during the relentless hospital pressure sequences, then soars to its emotional peak with Rose Byrne's devastating therapy confession scene

Critics consistently praised Rose Byrne's powerhouse performance and the film's unflinching portrayal of maternal overwhelm, though many found the relentless intensity exhausting. The film builds to an emotional crescendo with Linda's breakdown, but some reviewers felt the ambiguous ending didn't provide the cathartic payoff the intense journey deserved.
