Review of Open Marriage

Open Marriage (2017 TV Movie)
1/10
Typical LMN letdown
13 February 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Am I the only one that seems to have realized that Max and Becca were having an affair all along? Although the movie itself never shows them together alone, it becomes obvious in the movie that all of her double shift at the hospital may not have really been double shifts. This all becomes evident at the last dinner between the couples. It was obvious at their last lunch date when all four were getting the text messages. when the message comes through about Ron, she is so upset, and then the message comes through about her (Becca)and Max, Becca stands up and admits they did in fact go back, but that wasn't the worst part and before Becca can admit everything, Max abruptly ends everything and tells them to get off of his property. It's made even more clear at the end of the movie when Becca gets a paternity test. Why would a woman need a paternity test unless she had been having unprotected sex and unfaithful? She knew what she was doing, she just wanted a baby and I can understand that, but using her husbands best friend?????? The whole open marriage thing was just a set up so they (Becca and Max) could get together in a more open setting without the sneaking around, which would cost him (Max) everything. If you watch and listen real close when she (Becca) sneaks and goes back to the club a second time, Max is already waiting for her at the Club. He says just because Ron and Mindy want to call things off, doesn't mean things have to end between us (Max and Becca). Thats when Becca rubs her belly and indicates to Max that she is pregnant and that she is calling things off between them. She tells the man whom the thinks is the father before even telling her husband, but only tells her husband she didn't want to tell him until she found out there were no complications.

For a LMN movie, I guess it could have been better and should have been in more detail, but this is what I've come to expect from Lifetime.
