Claudio C @Claudio666 Aug 31, 2026 Terrible Story (12,651 – 30 Aug 2026) While walking with his wife Lauren (Julia Stiles) at the seaside of New London, the psychiatrist Tom Seymour (Josh Charles) sees a young man drowning and he saves him. On the next morning, he goes to the hospital to deliver his coat that was forgotten by the paramedics. When he sees the man, he realizes that he is Danny Miller (Avan Jogia), who was sent to prison due to his statement in court when he was a boy. The manipulative Danny visits him at home and Tom’s friend Angela (Tracie Thoms) asks him to treat Danny. Tom begins to question whether his assessment was correct while Danny gets close to Lauren. "The Drowning" (2016) is a thriller with a terrible story and bad development of characters. The lack of chemistry between Julia Stiles and Josh Charles is visible. Why Tom accepts to treat Danny, knowing that he is a manipulative psychopath, is the main question left by this movie. My vote is four.

I didn't give a damn about any of the insufferable people in this film. Neither will you. And of you don't care about the people, what's the point of watching? See more May 29, 2021 I like the movie! Very good twist! Good performance by Josh Charles and Julia Stiles. See more sarah s @Sarah_Sanity Mar 3, 2021 Huh? I feel sorry for this movie. It had potential with the cast, with the idea...but fell so short. The movie lacks a straight plot and cohesion between scenes and seems to repeat the same scenes only with different lines and in different places. The wrong loose ends are barely tied at the end and the actual ending? I...just...I'm so disappointed. See more Feb 20, 2021 One of the worst programs I've ever seen. Terrible acting, terrible storyline See more Read all reviews
