The Little Things

— Three Academy Award winners make “The Little Things” worth watching, but beyond the acting and some decent direction, it lacks much originality of concept and is a little disappointing as a thriller. Luckily, the reveal of the backstory of it’s main character, played by Denzel Washington, is interesting and something of a second plot. It is also ambiguous enough to have kept me happy watching and, while not spectacular, but decent enough for a Saturday afternoon. [HBO Max streaming.]
