So, 'Never Better' is this quirky blend of comedy and drama that really digs into the monotony of quarantine life, which feels super relatable. The lead, Terese, is stuck with Cystic Fibrosis, and the film captures her struggles with isolation in a way that’s both funny and poignant. The internal dialogue is relentless and gives you a deep dive into her psyche. It's not just about the physical barriers but also the mental ones. And then there's her roommate, who throws a wrench into her carefully constructed bubble. The pacing can feel a bit uneven, but it really mirrors that wild uncertainty of lockdown. It's raw, it’s real, and it’s a bit of a reflection on how we cope in tough times. Practical effects are minimal, focusing more on character interaction than grand visuals, which suits the intimate vibe.
