The Drama
Posted April 4th 2026 | Updated April 5th 2026
Charlie (Robert Pattinson) is a director of some natural history museum. He's melodrama incarnate. Emma (Zendaya) is his anti-hero. She works too, but we don’t learn where. Together, they are make some of the driest of cut-and-dried characters. Somehow its their humanity that saturates them.
This movie is half comedy and half black comedy which I love. I watched it with my mom on a whim. I wasn't planning on watching it at all. The Zendaya and Robert marketing ploy didn’t call me.
The Drama is very dubious and rythmic all throughout. The "shoot your" friends and family joke was so funny. And my theater gasped audibly in the Charlie and Maisha scene. I just wish it had released later in the year, because now my bar is set high.
Rating? It's worth trading my favorite tees for.
