While the performances, especially from Jessica Lange, are strong, It makes Hush feels rather predictable in the twists and turns, with the intense portrayal of toxic family sceneario and relationships that makes it an engaging watch my watch of this movie offered me a look at into the family dynamic opening my eyes further into the psychological problems that may be present even though they done quite meet the eye and like i have stated initially although it was sort of a predictable storyline as i have seen a lot of movies about mother-inlaw problems mostly of the the traditional association story, this american style portrayal and storyline was thought-out and delivered in an incredible style , at the begin it was a lot slow but things quickly began to pickup as helen starts to suspect martha.

This drama is commended for its conventional portrayal of bad mother in-law and its unconventional approach to character and personality association. I hope this encourages you to watch it for yourself, Thank you for reading today's review i hope to see you soon .

Toxic family theme is certainly interesting, until it gets predictable, that is. Nice choice, @vanessakor. Kindly remember to engage with other authors in the community.✨
