When the Bough Breaks Cinema UK Release Date

When The Bough Breaks is enjoyable trash, but trash nonetheless.

Generic thriller about a childless couple's unpleasant experiences with an unstable surrogate mother.

Morris Chestnut and Regina Hall battle sexy schemer Jaz Sinclair in a movie that only needs commercial breaks to be a Lifetime Original.

While empathy is first to go in "When the Bough Breaks" and its Screen Gems predecessors, there is nothing good in its place.

Morris Chestnut and Regina Hall play a New Orleans couple whose attempts to start a family put them in the path of an unhinged surrogate.

There’s not an ounce of suspense in any of this, because you’ve seen it all before, and the director, Jon Cassar, seems uninterested in veering from the well-established formula.

When the Bough Breaks could have offered some cheap thrills, but it ends up a neutered, paint-by-numbers snoozefest, not even worthy for cable syndication.
