Director:David Chirchirillo Release Date: Nov 3, 2017. MPAA Rating: Not rated. Running time: 83 MIN. In "Bad Match," Lili Simmons plays Riley in the same vein, as a spurned object of desire who will lie, manipulate, and shoot over the edge of acceptable behavior, but only to shove her humanity in Harris' face. She fakes a suicide attempt (a loathsome thing to do — but Harris' indifferent response is even worse), and by the time she begins to mess with his Twitter account,we're in a brave new world of payback. Jack Cutmore-Scott, in a strong performance, makes Harris a supremely confident dude coming apart at the seams. When the police knock at his door, and we know in our bones what they're looking for, the film turns into a cautionary pulp pressure cooker: Live by the digital gaze, die by the digital gaze.Shades of "Fatal Attraction" — but more than that, shades of every cheap thriller that ever introduced a psychological situation only to turn it into something action-y and boring. "Bad Match" often feels like it could become that kind of "ride," but it never does. It's something a shade or two more interesting: a scuzzy bro nightmare.
