Confusing beginning - in a welter of edits (Andrew Buckland, Michael McClusker) we experience alcoholic Emily Blunt's strange life, obsessed with the ex and their new baby and with the babysitter, who seems to live next door to the couple - still not sure in my geography. Was initially somewhat confused by the two blondes also.
Still, everything becomes clear with plot twist voiced by Lisa Kudrow - on a train.
The three women - Emily Blunt (fantastic performance), Haley Bennett, Rebecca Ferguson - all seem quite messed up, but so too is a most inappropriate therapist (Edgar Ramirez) and a violent husband (Luke Evans). Justin Theroux is the ex. Allison Janney investigates.

Erin Cressida Wilson adapted Paula Hawkins' novel. Too many red herrings, even for a Manx fisherman, one might argue.
