Editor’s note: A concise note about Joy (2024): This film is undeniably rooted in the drama genre but carries a personal touch. Under Ben Taylor’s skilled direction, the movie maintains a consistent rhythm and well-defined atmosphere. The performances by Bill Nighy, James Norton, and Thomasin McKenzie are authentic and grounded. With a runtime of 1 hour and 55 minutes, it manages its pacing effectively and seldom lingers too long on any scene. While it has some imperfections, its strengths more than compensate for the flaws. The tagline—“Three pioneers, one vision: the birth of IVF.”—accurately summarizes its focus. If this premise resonates with you, be sure to add it to your watchlist.
