Analysis

The storyline of the film was great, thrilling, interesting, and entertaining —the film focus on the central theme of greed. The movie is from a novel called A Simple Favor by Darcey Bell.

The film have so many twist, and suspense which is very enjoyable to watch. The storyline in the film were interesting.  The direction, cinematography and costume design was perfect in the movie. At a certain point, the film becomes dull. The movie has a completely new concept. The plot of the film seems to be misarranged. The thrilling journey of Stephanie to find her friend was incredible. The background music and songs play a significant role in the movie. The dialogues were excellent.
