It's What's Inside

This week, I watched the dark comedy, It's What's Inside, written and directed by Greg Jardin and now streaming on Netflix. This dropped on Netflix in early October and was recommended to me by a friend of mine. The movie centers around a group of friends who gather together for the first time in years for a pre-wedding party. One of the friends brings along a new piece of tech that makes it possible for you to switch bodies, and the group decide to play a game, similar to the classic card game, mafia. As expected, things go awry rather quickly as secrets and past traumas start to bubble to the surface.

I found this movie to be much better than expected. It reminded me a lot of 2022's Bodies Bodies Bodies which is another teen thriller centered around a party game that goes too far. I felt that the way they went about the body swapping in It's What's Inside was very unique, and I absolutely loved the cinematic style used to let the viewer know who was inside each character's body. The acting performances by the entire cast were very impressive considering especially that they had to often switch their character's mannerisms to match whoever was supposed to be inside their body at the time. 

This movie is a lot of fun. It is sexy and funny and very entertaining. Above that, it shares a good lesson of being true to yourself and being honest with others, especially those that you love. I really enjoyed It's What's Inside and highly recommend checking it out.
