I’m a fan of actress Nathalie Emmanuel, and seeing her take center stage on a poster looked cool, so I thought this would be worth my time.
Audra and Noel are happily married but are suffering a rut in their relationship. All this goes on as their friends are having marital troubles, Audra’s old friend Holly comes over to visit. Holly is a free-spirited woman who excites both Audra and Noel as the weekend becomes awkward to explosive as things come at the crossroads of their lives.
This was bad. I understand adults like to bask in relationship troubles, particularly in reigniting a marriage, instead causing more problems even with people talking about it. This was taking a pornographic idea without the porn. Boring and annoying than good drama.

My first review on Rotten Tomatoes after having being off-put by some of the critics, both professional and not, who not only racialize--or even culturalize- the actors (I still have never seen a "white" or "black" person--just many shades in between), but appear ignorant about threesome films, while claiming the opposite. However, the slice-of-life "Holly Slept Over" nailed it, all while being light and entertaining. It is NOT a porno (which I revile), but is instead sharply written, effortlessly acted and unapologetically realistic: suburban neighbours who are friends share their most personal problems regarding their semi-dysfunctional marriages (anyone married knows what I'm talking about), with witty banter and often twisted, well-meaning advice. When Holly, (played by Nathalie Emmanuel) comes to visit her long-lost friend who is trying to get pregnant--and was once intimate with her--the movie soars. And a star is born. Ms. Emmanuel, a British actress who is also Dominican, lights up the screen with her raw sensuality, empathy, and to be frank, unique beauty, all of which draw the viewer instantly in. But it's the moments of intense awkwardness which really take the work to the next level of authenticity, even in the inevitable ménage a trois scene. Things rarely go as smoothly as they are fantasized, especially for the man. Or so I'm told. My only disappointment was that this just-under 90 minute movie was so riveting, it seemed to go by way too fast...I wanted to hang out with these five very real humans much longer, especially during a Pandemic. 4/5.
