Film Review – F Marry Kill

Scripted by Ivan Diaz, Dan Scheinkman, and Meghan Brown, “F Marry Kill” is a tale about the perils of modern dating, amplified through a serial killer story. There should be some level of panic involved, and since the feature is also a comedy, perhaps a few laughs found along the way. However, the material doesn’t get anywhere with its ideas, swinging wildly from a study of female liberation to a detective story, asking viewers to care about thinly drawn characters experiencing an easily avoidable threat. Director Laura Murphy endeavors to create something madcap and perhaps a little bit scary, but she mostly crafts a terrible episode of television, aiming to go as lightweight as possible with material that carries no cinematic weight. “F Marry Kill” is a rough sit, and its leaden way with cutesiness and edginess wears on the senses long before the first act passes.
