Movie critic Bruce Miller says "Promising Young Woman" looks like a madcap romance but turns into an intense thriller that never stops upping its ante. Director Emerald Fennell turns the film into a discussion about rape culture and the men who populate it. Bruce Miller calls it the most frightening date film since “Fatal Attraction.”
