I’ve never felt as tense in the cinema as I did watching this comedy – and it wasn’t just because of Seth Rogen’s performance

Seth Rogen and Olivia Wilde stand in their living room with a confused look on their faces.

Olivia Wilde’s directing back catalogue is nothing if not varied. Her breakout directorial hit came with Booksmart in 2019, which was rich with humour and elevated by Beanie Feldstein and Kaitlyn Dever’s brilliant lead performances.

Then came the not-so-great Don’t Worry Darling, which scored a disappointing 38 per cent on Rotten Tomatoes' Tomatometer.
