False Positive
After months of trying and failing to get pregnant, Lucy and Adrian finally find their dream fertility doctor in the illustrious Dr. Hindle. But after becoming pregnant with a healthy baby girl, Lucy begins to notice something sinister through Hindle's gleaming charm, and she sets out to uncover the unsettling truth about him.

The film plummets from its peak revelation about Hindle's conspiracy to its deeply divisive and grotesque ending that left many reviewers disgusted.
False Positive starts with promising psychological thriller elements and solid performances, particularly from Glazer and Brosnan, building paranoid tension effectively. The film maintains moderate engagement through its middle act despite some pacing issues and tedious clinic scenes. However, it crashes dramatically with an ending that reviewers found grotesque and disturbing, dividing audiences between those who saw artistic merit and those who felt genuinely sickened.
