“Dream big or don’t dream at all…”
Marmalade released on demand on February 9th 2024. The romance thriller film stars Joe Keery, Camila Morrone, and Aldis Hodge. It runs for approximately an hour and forty minutes.
A prisoner strikes up a conversation with his new cellmate about how he met the love of his life, hoping he will help him escape so that they can be reunited again.
Here is the trailer:
Marmalade has a killer fun premise with one of the best twists I have seen in a while. Is it worthy of YOUR next watch? Let’s find out…
The Pros:
Blends several genres together seamlessly.
I loved the combination of heist thrills with crazy romance thrown in for good measure. This movie was fresh and fun, and it really captured my attention. I thought the chemistry was believable and the pacing was on point for the most part.
An insane twist I didn’t see coming…
There will be no spoilers in this review, but wow! That twist threw me for a loop in the best way possible. It was truly exceptional and it made my watch that much more engaging. I’m still floored by it!
The Cons:
Takes a while to find its groove…
Don’t worry…it sticks the landing, but it took me some time to fall in love with this film. I had trouble getting used to Joe Keery’s accent, but eventually that felt less overwhelming and things fell into place nicely.
So am I in or out?
I’m in!!!
Marmalade is a satisfying ride from start to finish with a twist that will stick with you long after. An absolute gem!
