Steven Soderbergh and The Side Effect

The Contagion, Magic Mike, Good German were more peaceful, softer than The Side Effect.

I have not guessing Steven Soderbergh will make a femma fatale-film noir till see The Side Effect. Two bad women were arrested, one good man (Despite prison) is murdered and one other man (Good doctor, good husband and good adoptive father) was cheated.

Psychology, psychiatry, therapy and drugs are not full innocent. But people who trust all this processes don’t like the movie.

I hoped story of a woman who between two men. I hoped some psychological tension. But someone murdered others for conspiracies and someone makes big moneys, so?

Soderbergh used to tell criticism of system with appearing of basic. But now, not only some sick people or doctors but although all therapy studies are accused. This is not style of Soderbergh.  I think Ken Loach wouldn’t make this movie, too.

Sick woman who murdered husband misses father since her childhood. Or her old therapist claims that to doctor that (Jude Law). Doctor is successful in carrier and he is happy with wife he has a son (Adoptive), he is a good father.

Being of good father of doctor coincide with claim of lived fatherless childhood for sick woman.  Woman who seeks a good father in relation with her doctor (Law) is a liar. Doctor is a good father and problems of woman are not sourced by fatherless.


Casting was telling us strategy of movie is around Jude Law. Yes we will watch a psychiatrist problems. Yes we witnessed all dirtiness of  private insurance in USA and we witnessed problems of therapy in The Side Effect. But do I care about this?
