Maturity proves to be a burden, and the blend of crime and humor in the story falls flat
In the world of cinema, September 2025 is set to welcome a new film titled Adulthood, directed by Alex Winter after a decade-long absence from narrative filmmaking. This film, written by Michael M.B. Galvin, promises to offer a unique perspective on adult life.
The film stars an ensemble cast, including Josh Gad, Kaya Scodelario, Billie Lourd, Alex Winter himself, and Anthony Carrigan. However, one question lingers unanswered: who plays the role of Patty Metzger, a character whose identity remains a mystery?
Adulthood is not a sequel to Winter's debut film, Freaked, but rather a drab commentary about the mundane aspects of adult life, particularly taking care of dirty laundry. It seems to lack the wit and visual moxie of its predecessor.
The plot unfolds as siblings Meg and Noah return to their childhood home after their elderly mother suffers a stroke. While cleaning, they discover a hidden corpse in the basement. The corpse is later identified as Patty Metzger, a woman who mysteriously vanished 30 years prior.
The discovery leads the siblings to become embroiled in a conspiracy, and they decide to hide the corpse to avoid potential legal and personal complications. Patty's remains are found soon after their sloppy disposal.
