While the husbands are away at work, the wives get to enjoy the beauty and luxury of their seemingly perfect new life in Victory. However, when cracks in her paradise begin to become easier to spot, Alice can't help but question her life and exactly what's going on in Victory. The cast also includes Chris Pine, Gemma Chan, Sydney Chandler, and Olivia Wilde herself even appears in the movie.

Newsday (Rafer Guzman):

As it happens, “Don’t Worry Darling” is neither disaster nor masterpiece. Visually, it’s a stunner — as sumptuous a movie as any you’re likely to see this year. The story it tries to tell, however, never gels in a statisfying way."
