EJ Moreno with a review of Mimi Cave’s Fresh starring Sebastian Stan and Daisy Edgar-Jones…
With elements of American Psycho, Ex Machina, and Promising Young Woman sprinkled throughout, Fresh feels tailor-made for my sensibilities. It all comes together with Mimi Cave’s brilliant direction of Lauryn Kahn’s script, a pair that I will need to see more of in the future.

Frustrated by scrolling dating apps only to end up on lame, tedious dates, Noa takes a chance by giving her number to the awkwardly charming Steve after a produce-section meet-cute at the grocery store. During a subsequent date at a local bar, sassy banter gives way to a chemistry-laden hookup, and a smitten Noa dares to hope that she might have actually found a real connection with the dashing cosmetic surgeon. She accepts Steve’s invitation to an impromptu weekend getaway, only to find that her new paramour has been hiding some unusual appetites.
Fresh features a cast that includes Daisy Edgar-Jones, Sebastian Stan, Jojo T. Gibbs, Charlotte Le Bon, Andrea Bang, and Dayo Okeniyi.
