the leading man is my tpye

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

I guess with movies like this, it's one or the other. But most likely the one thing you expect. So while you may not feel many surprises in the story/thriller, you may like how the tension is being build and the acting in general. It's not an easy watch, especially when and if you care for one of the main characters. Problem being you might not care that much.So watching the wife and her husband, the question is, if you are supposed to have positive feelings towards the Babysitter? Now the ending on the other hand will either leave you satisfied because of the way everything is "wrapped" up or you may hate it for how it handled the whole thing. Not sure if it is a make or break thing though - I think you will know much earlier ...

Let me start by saying this movie is insulting to any a parent who has an autistic child, and to the autistic community as a whole:Autistic children don't try to murder their parents. Parents don't chain autistic children in bed, or wear them rugby helmets. Maybe 300 years ago, but I am pretty certain that's not the suggested treatment nowadays.Going further (SPOILERS ALERT):How was the old lady (who could not act for her life) able to calm down the child? Noone knows.How was it they were able to dissect dogs and cats inside the house for 2 months without anyone smelling or noticing anything? No one knowsWhy did the mother's friend stay for dinner after the mother stormed out of her own house? Noone knows.Why was she killed since she obviously did not suspect anything? Noone knows.Why did they want the child? Noone knows.Did they plan all along to take the child? How? They never met till that day in the supermarket. Noone knows.Why did they let her live, when she was an obvious witness? Noone knows.What was that whole : the husband sleeps with other women, which was then never explored? Noone knows.Easily The Last Jedi of horror movies, minus the unecessary SJW/Manhating element. A piece in pieces, with people in it acting mediocrely that starts nowhere, goes nowhere in a journey that makes absolutely no sense. P.S. -> And of course, the old lady is poisoning the mother because that's never been done before either.

A mother is tired of taking care of her out of control autistic son. Her and her husband hire a nanny and first all goes well but then Diana starts noticing that her nanny seems to turn her son against her as well as poisoning her.A lot of times one just gets frustrated with the mother as she doesn't do things that could help her prove her point. Like keep the app and show the translations to the friend who recommended it, she would believe it. Film some of the conversations and show to somebody. Take that tea she gives you and bring to the doctor to be tested for hallucinogens. But then one sees a way around it, she is a stressed pregnant woman who can't think of good ways out clearly.I saw unfair reviews to it. Mainly from American far lefts calling it ableist and xenophobic. Well, autism is not always high functional and many parents do indeed struggle a lot, why hide them? And foreign language was important for this movie. The main issue is indeed that the ending doesn't explain everything. But for me it was enough. We just see that her worries were justified. Why it happened isn't really necessary to know.The acting was great. Daniela Ramírez gave us a top performance as the main character. We see her love for her son and yet worry that the second kid will be the same. Her feeling like she has no way to solve the issue with her husband not taking her seriously and not being able to control her kid. Aida who played Luz was also good. There isn't that much in the character but she did it perfect for us not to guess if she is good or evil. And this is her only role.

A rushed ending and poor plot explanation ruins what could of been a good thriller...Writer tries to present several directions the film could of went into but it just takes the lazy "made for lifetime" route with the lowest common denominator conclusion. Just throws in your face, I'm mean spirited, evil wins, so too bad !!! bye...Shame because the lead actress does give a nice performance.. It's wasted though...
