Seaside (2018)
7/10
Stay away from him.
1 September 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Roger Kesler (Matt Shingledecker) and Daphne Miller (Ariana DeBose) are in love. They both hide their relationship from their parents. When Roger's father dies, he gets a partial inheritance, a home in Seaside, Oregon. The rest of the $15 million will go to any heirs. Our happy couple elopes and as it turns out Roger has a past in Seaside, namely Susanne (Steffanie Leigh). She claims he got her pregnant and dumped her off at planned parenthood. He claims it was a one night fling, he was drunk, and she was never pregnant. This causes a bumpy road.

Things go along like a Lifetime Film and then at 50 minutes we get a wicked twist and then more information 20 minutes later and then a final twist. There are minor hints such as the sex scene which lasted less than a minute and both parties rolling over and going to sleep. How often do guys get away with that? But don't expect anything specific.

It was a good story with a decent twist. With top name stars, we would all be singing praise. Well written/directed.

Guide: F-word. Sex. Brief nudity.
