Who Was The REAL Narcissist? Acrimony Film Rundown

Robert was bad in quite a few ways. I agree the intent was to confuse the viewer, but he was bad.

Melinda should’ve left him a long time ago. Therefore if he did gain that success, it wouldn’t have hurt her so much because the amount of time it took him to accomplish his dreams, she could’ve been Alot further in life probably happily married and everything but she was too forgiving and believed his potential. Too much.

[@AVibeCalledYes]

I don't think either were narcs. Narc gets thrown around too easily now. He was selfish, and she had anger issues that needed to be addressed early on. They were the perfect, codependent storm. Their relationship should've ended during college. They both held on. Taraji's character put up with way too much and gave him no incentive to change. The guy also did what many male clowns do: date and settle for who they do not like because they cannot get who they really want. He had a lucky break and was able to encounter who he always wanted. Nothing Taraji's character could've done would make him do right. He didn't like her and made her pay for it annually by being a bum. Taraji saw him perform for the woman he really wanted and snapped. She became a woman scorned, which, unfortunately, cost her her life. No narcs here. Just an entitled clown who got a lucky break and the woman he always wanted and a woman who had no self esteem to walk away from the familiar and it caused her demise. It's frightening how men will "settle down" with and marry women they don't even like, which is why I trust NONE of them until they prove otherwise.

[@HeitCheri]

Agreed about the narc part... It does make for a good title though 😊🤭😊

[@AVibeCalledYes]

@HeitCheri Honestly it does because when I watched this movie when it first came out, I called dude a whole narc! He def has tendencies but when I got older and rewatched, I saw mistakes of both ends. Acrimony was the perfect title for this movie, especially when you've felt it before. This, along with Madea's (whichever movie Natalie, Loretta Devine & Bow Wow were in) were his best movies. Because they had the best messages. Acrimony showed me that victimhood can be your demise and the other one showed me how family secrets and grudges can destroy you. All his other stuff sucks though 😂😂

[@caliBornbEauty]

The boat scene makes sense when you think about the crashing the trailer scene and the extreme consequence (her death) was similar to her losing her ability to have children as a consequence for her actions when she found out he was with another girl. I think he was unintentionally bad for her but she was already off her rocker. His actions exacerbated her already fragile condition. But her family's inability to see the need to get her help beforehand means her mental illness went unchecked and she ended up dying as a result. Earlier diagnosis would have prevented all of this. But the family just treated her like that's just #HowSheIs I guess... great breakdown as usual!

[@orangevf1]

I empathize with Melinda in that she was the one who worked for her ex-husband's dream to come into fruition. It could (and maybe should) be perceived that she put in the 80% and in the end, everyone came out on top except Melinda. Yes, Robert "gave her" 10 million, but he more likely wrote that check, because she could have gone to court and proved she deserved at least half of the money. Did Robert love Melinda? He loved that she loved him. But that goes with "how she is"

[@sasasavage5047]

They both were wrong... Robert: Watched her struggle for YEARS and never tried to help her because all he cared about was HIS dream. As we saw later on, it had nothing to do with dreaming of a happy life w/ her because he easily slid another woman into the vacant spot. He was selfish and imo didn't truly love her. Melinda: Should have left him a LONG time ago. Also, should have left him alone after getting $10M and her mother's house. I understand why she felt it wasn't enough because she destroyed her ability to have kids and wasted her best years on him, but those were her decisions. I do think she deserved half though for paying for his education and financing the battery. Obviously, all the stalking and violence were wrong. His 2nd wife was smart. She got with him after realizing he had accomplished his goal and just needed help she could EASILY give. She ate the fruits of Melinda's labor.

[@rdht6198]

[@sherrylatrice8733]

Unpopular opinion: they were both right and wrong. They were both narcissists, BUT I also think this isn't anything strange outside of how a lot of people act... generally.

And how everything unfolded clearly showed how Mel and Rob were incredibly flawed people.

This is why it is much better to leave a toxic situation as fast as you can to prevent years of trauma and the further building of a toxic connection that you'll end up getting used to.

I don’t think Robert was necessarily a con artist, bc that implies he knew Melinda was an easy lick, he was however, essentially a bum living off his gfs dime until he accomplished his goals, the whole plot of the movie hinges on this man getting this battery to work and getting people to invest in it, so while, yes, it’s incredibly selfish and manipulative that he used the resources of her family for years and subsequently put Melinda in so much distress for his own desires, I wouldn’t necessarily call that narcissism, but he was a determined loser with an end goal and he got it, you can be an opportunist without malicious intent, unfortunately most of the time that just comes with the detriment to other people, and the crazy thing is it didn’t have to be Melinda, she was just the only one dumb enough to give him the time of day, at the VERY least you can call him a leech, unfortunately for Robert he leeched off someone that was effing crazy 😭

40:04 when I was writing my books, I thought my book was going to be published instantly and I wouldn't need to work in a office job because I knew my stories was good. It's not that I had no intention of working I just had that high confidence and determination for my books. Even when my teachers at the time told me, don't put all your eggs in on basket, I thought that since it was writing and nothing extreme, like inventing the latest technology or curing cancer, it was fine. But all artist and writers say the same thing: "Don't quit your day job." I still poured what I love in my writing, but keeping an income is still needed. Although, I still felt I was right when guidance councilors, and family members told me to presue a different career venture when the original one, it was culinary arts, didn't get me work even after getting the degree.

She bet on those dreams. And for him to go live out those dreams with another woman???? Not just any woman, but the woman who he cheated on her with prior. He didn’t even have the decency to give the other woman another dream. To see her have a child when she played a part in Melinda not having her own child. And I can’t imagine how it must of felt to Melinda that she worked two jobs, took out a mortgage on her mom’s house, jeopardized her sisters’ business, depleted her own inheritance for that to still not be enough to get him off the ground. But the new woman comes at least minute, and within 10 minutes changes his life, becomes the Shero. Something Melinda herself couldn’t do. Uh uh.

He seems like a man that uses his charms and looks to get with women who are better off then him and uses them as a come up. The lady he cheated with and ended up getting pregnant and marrying seemed like she was in a better position then he was as a colleges student and in adult hood as well.

How she is! Just to piggyback off of my last post. There's a man who works at my job who acts like Rob with asking for things with out actually asking. He only has female friends and they're usually attractive one. He goes and gives them sob stories about his life and says that he's so tired because he works 16hours six days a week. He's a Mexican immigrant and says he hasn't seen his child in almost a year and wishes he could see her blah blah blah. Before you know it the nurses are giving him money to go visit his daughter. Allowing him to sleep on the job and protect him from managers. One time he lost his air pods and gave sob stories about that and the next thing you know they bought him new apple air pods and an apple watch to go with his phone. He even tried to get me to feeling sorry for him working long hours. It worked for a little while. I would play look out for him while he left me working alone for hours while he went to a different area and slept. If managers came looking id text his cell and tell him to come down. Then I thought about it. He complain a lot but no one is making him work these hours he does it himself then complain about it. When I noticed he walks past men and only holds conversations with women, I knew something wasn't right. I ended our friendship immediately.

But was mad crazy driven over getting that battery in the game!! If he was a con.. it was non intentional to hurt because it was for the greater good for he and Mel!! Remember!! He asked Mel repeatedly if she was sure and wanted the divorce!! He didn't want it!! Her damn meddling sisters that pressured her to get a divorce especially Pam the eldest!! So by Robert marrying the same Chick that Mel lost her insides over and giving her all the things he and Mel were supposed to have it sent Mel over the edge😮What he should've done was leave town and not post anything on social media and have his life where Mel couldn't know or see because I would snap too that's a triple slap in my face Robert wasn't thinking on that part!!🤔🤔There's a whole lot of layers to this movie!! It would be interesting if you could do a video from Robert's perspective not Mel's🤔

[@ashtynbritt7889]

Okay so here's the thing- Melinda and her sisters didn't know what they didn't know. Objectively, it looked BAD, and after how long and hard he had let her down she had no reason to trust him so I totally get why she left. Also, regardless of the eventual outcome- (which btw, Robert is an obviously fictional exception- NOT the common reality of this situation) he STILL did her dirty all that time, and therefore the marriage was doomed.

[@deshaylasmith3518]

Yall make it like the scenario are unrealistic. But I have experienced some of things and her range is real. Anyway I felt taraj's character was so unjust and he was scum. They played like he was broken man because she reached he breaking point and he has work. But Once he made it and he really honestly loved he should be work hard to get her back even is she gave him push back. But being scumbag he was he acted like im up and im give this woman that already got it what promised you and more

[@HeitCheri]

Well the parts that we found most unrealistic was him hitting the jackpot for $75 million and her basically devolving to trying to kill him after getting a large sum of cash like that. The other stuff was typical... Just not the part where it all happens to one person in a single story. 😊

[@Ax3v3211]

Be serious 😂 so after she divorced him, put him out leaving him homeless, and her finding another man he was supposed to try to get her back?

[@Jessica.Shawnte]

@@Ax3v3211if he really loved the woman that financially supported him for years then yes

[@deshaylasmith3518]

@@Ax3v3211 yes if he truly loved he. She loved him until he totally broke her. But in all actually He was using her he never loved her he needs her financially. That was pitty and petty check. For example tiny and t.i situation he gave her a ring because he felt he owed he that.

[@TheRetroWoman80]

How She Is Heit and Cheri, a lot of people hate this movie but I kind of like it. It was more believable and ran smoother story wise than some of TP's newer material **cough** Mea Culpa. The only thing I truly hated was how after not believing in this dude for SO LONG along with her toxic triangulating and flying monkey family, that she was bitter in any way after receiving sincere financial "gratitude pay" from him. Her unhinged inner state and emotional immaturity would not allow her to let bygones be bygones because he found someone who was treating him right, and was internally stable. So what if he gave that other woman all the things that were meant for her. She blew it.

[@HeitCheri]

She did blow it by not taking responsibility for the fact that she listened to other people. But, her legitimate mental illness surely affected her ability to reason.

[@TheRetroWoman80]

@@HeitCheri Yes indeed.

[@Jessica.Shawnte]

She did believe in him she was drained and used

[@TheRetroWoman80]

@@Jessica.Shawnte I hear you. Yet I wonder if she would have felt used and drained if she did not have mental illness. Like, how different would it turn out if she shut out her family's toxicity successfully and ceaselessly believed in him? Would she truly be happy, internally and with him? Would she be standing hand in hand with him when his device earned him those million dollars to move in the penthouse, and save her mother's house? Or would she still be some sort of crazy anyway at some point???🤷🏽‍♀️

[@Kiahhhhhhhh]

I’m only 5 mins in but confused as to why you keep saying she “isn’t wrapped too tight.” I didn’t get that impression from her, especially in the beginning. She was hurting.

[@KokettaKnowles]

Him going back to her after she rammed his home....sending con artist signs....

[@anthony1468]

ROBERT HAD THAT STRRONG D TO KEEP HER FROM LEAVING & WHEN SHE LEFT,HE PAID HER BACK HER MONEY PLUS GOT HER HOUSE BACK,SO HE OWED HER NOTHING. SHE GOT DELUSIONAL BECAUSE HE DID THE THINGS HE WANTED TO DO WITH HER WITH SOMENONE ELSE

[@HeitCheri]

She felt used because of the price she paid.

[@aprilhall2946]

It wasn't all about the money. She lost time as well

[@explore8539]

​@@aprilhall2946They both lost time and energy. She divorced him. He was decent enough to pay her back. He found someone else. Move on!

[@aprilhall2946]

@explore8539 money don't replace time or emotions. Then he got with the woman whom he cheated with earlier in their relationship is who you move on with, and she pregnant. Her being 😡 is understandable. No one can tell the next person when to move on because you want them to. Her extreme actions were over the top, but she had a right to feel how she felt

[@chaosspy6723]

I can kind of understand. seeing someone else live the life he promised her probably hurt a lot. it makes you feel worthless, like nothing you ever did or said mattered. combine that with her anger issues, and you get disaster. violence is never the answer, though.

[@dajanedior]

ROBERT IS WRONG 😢

[@lorenzoyoung698]

How?? He did everything that he said he was gonna do when they was young, remember that was HIS dream before he met either one of those women so he was gonna live that life regardless of who was in his life

This man lacked emotional intelligence and Taraji in this movie was too emotional. I would def see a movie told from Robert’s side…..

[@HeitCheri]

It would be interesting to see his side!

[@OaklynJonas]

51:06 my thought process during all of this is, is there not another company that he could’ve went to pitch the battery to?! You’ve stalked this company for so long that you’re deemed a credible threat and a safety violation, and nothing in him thought oh, let me try to pitch this to someone else? But I guess if he never thought to get some sort of regular job to help his wife pay the bills and I guess he never thought to pitch the battery to another company to possibly move this process along a little faster either.

[@KokettaKnowles]

He should have, but he wasn't thing about Melinda, so he held strong to his dream.

[@keptbygrace6221]

@53 min it is admirable to have a dream and work hard but at some point if it's not bringing income that becomes a hobby. You should get a 9:00-5:00 and work on that dream nights and weekends - I'm just saying

[@HeitCheri]

That exactly what we were talking about. The difficulty of having to essentially work on your paying job and your business at the same time. It's hard work, but you've gotta do it like this until the business can pay the bills.

this movie was so garbage. I hate movies where I don't like any of the characters. It gives you nobody to root for, nothing to hope for except for some better movie plots with better writing and better charaters next time. It's just full of silliness and stupidity. Nothing about it is realistic. I hope no people in life are ever *this* ridiculous 🤣
