So, 'Not Reasons to Be' feels like a deep dive into the psyche of wealth and morality. The atmosphere is tense, almost suffocating at times—like you're holding your breath alongside the protagonist. The pacing? It’s deliberately slow, which really amps up the dread as she grapples with her choices. There are moments of genuine tension when the robber’s intentions are unclear, and it really makes you think about how much one’s life is worth. The performances are raw, especially the lead; she brings a fragility to that wealth that’s striking. And while the practical effects are limited, they feel grounded in the reality of the scenario. It’s definitely one of those films that sticks with you long after the credits roll.
