Drop

From director Christopher Landon (the Happy Death Day films, Freaky) and screenwriters Jillian Jacobs (Fantasy Island) and Chris Roach (Non-Stop), Drop is a mystery thriller that gets more wrapped up in a forced mystery than providing anything resembling actual thrills.

It was made for my wife. It's a simple and unbelieveable plot that does tension well about a single mother who finds the world's best first date. Most men would have thought something was up and bailed pretty fast. So it's getting a 10 of 10 because it featured a straight white male who was a good guy, and not evil personified.
