The Believer (II) (2021)
2/10
Robotic, toxic relationship between two people who shouldn't so much as have a conversation.
21 November 2021
Let alone marry. The only reason it gets two stars is that it doesn't look like it's filmed on someone's several-generations-old phone like a lot of movies on Tubi look, it has some competent shots, and it has a legitimate actor in Billy Zane, though he likely filmed his part in half a day at most.

Otherwise, it's watching two lame people with the personalities of ocean sponges stiffly talk nonsense as they stand or sit rigidly like strangers. These are people who shouldn't be together, and whatever the outcome of the movie (is he hallucinating, in limbo, etc.?), the road to get there is rough. I hate toxic people. I don't like spending time with them even in fiction no matter the context, so this is a slog to get through.

S/N: The main guy seems like a James Nguyen character who finally snapped.
