How much does one need to sacrifice for the sake of being perfect? If you're a cellist like Charlotte, played by Allison Williams, it might come at the cost of your childhood and innocence at the hands of a manipulative mentor.
Perfection follows a child prodigy who had to leave the prestigious conservatory she was schooled in because of her mother's illness but found her way back to an event years later.
She finds she had been replaced by another rising star, Lizzie, played by Logan Browning. The two seem to have a spark and get attracted to each other romantically.
However, at this point in the plot, things turn out to not be as they seem, and talking about it would be major spoilers. So, we highly recommend the entire experience.
While critics are divided on this movie for either being a rollercoaster or being dismissive about the #metoo movement. Reviewers for the latter opinion claim that it glorifies revenge and feminist violence fetishized through a misogynistic lens.
While that argument is valid to some points of the film, we appreciate it for what it is by itself — a revenge flick full of twists, turns, and a satisfyingly gruesome finish.
