On the Rocks (2019)

I have to say that I really liked this movie, especially when you consider that the thumbnail summary of a woman suspecting her husband of cheating on her and when she tells her continuously cheating father about it he dives in to the surveillance mission with enthusiasm is just not what I would call a recipe for success and enjoyment in my book. Bill Murray is the dad and Rashida Jones is the wife--Jones just directed a documentary about her father, Quincy Jones, who is a complicated man himself, and she plays the wife who doesn't want to think that she would be humiliated in the same way that her mother was, but is worried she might be. Additionally, she knows the end of that story and she wants to avoid that for herself, so there is a tension between wanting to know and hoping she is over reacting. SHe plays her character perfectly and Bill Murray as the father is so hilarious in a kind of quiet way that you are even a little disappointed that the whole thing has to come to an end and you cannot continue to watch for at least another hour.
