365 Days: This Day (Polish: 365 dni: Ten dzień) is a 2022 Polish erotic thriller film directed by Barbara Białowąs and Tomasz Mandes. Serving as a sequel to 365 Days, it is based on This Day, the second novel of a trilogy by Blanka Lipińska and stars Anna-Maria Sieklucka, Michele Morrone, Rebecca Casiraghi and Magdalena Lamparska.

The film was released worldwide on Netflix on April 27, 2022, to similar widely negative critical reception as its predecessor. A sequel, The Next 365 Days, was released on August 19, 2022.[1]

Plot

[edit]

The movie starts with Massimo and Laura getting married. Laura had lost her baby due to the accident that took place in the final scenes of the previous movie. They both are happy until Laura starts feeling bored as she has nothing to do while Massimo is busy with his work. Daily arguments force her mind to get devoted to Nacho, Massimo's gardener. One night at a party in Massimo's house, Laura finds Massimo having sex with his ex-girlfriend, Anna. Laura is heartbroken and she leaves the party, where she encounters Nacho. They both flee to an island. Meanwhile, Massimo is confused about what happened and starts searching for Laura. Laura starts enjoying her life on the island and at the same time she fantasizes about having sex with Nacho.

One day, Nacho tells Laura to meet his father and tells her that his father is the head of the rival mafia gang of Massimo. Laura is shocked and feels betrayed, but still accompanies Nacho to his father's place. Laura is left with a few guards and Nacho goes to meet his father. Massimo is having an argument with Nacho's father and it is revealed that they have Laura with them. Suddenly, Nacho realizes that he left Laura with the wrong guards and Massimo and Nacho rush to save Laura. Meanwhile, Laura is kidnapped by Massimo's estranged and unstable twin brother, Adriano, who she had no prior knowledge of. It's then revealed that the night Laura saw Massimo having sex with Anna it was Adriano and not her husband Massimo. Massimo enters the place and tries to save Laura. Massimo and Adriano had always been rivals, and it was all part of Adriano's plan. Laura runs and she is shot by Anna and Adriano, who are in turn shot and killed by Massimo and Nacho. The movie ends with Nacho leaving and Laura lying in the arms of Massimo, her fate uncertain.[2]

Release

[edit]

365 Days: This Day was released on April 27, 2022, on Netflix, in Poland, the United States, and the United Kingdom.[3][12]

Reception

[edit]

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 0% of 17 critics' reviews are positive.[13][14] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 8 out of 100, based on five critics, indicating "overwhelming dislike".[15][16]

Jonathan Wilson, of Ready Steady Cut, gave the film a negative review, saying how the film, alongside other erotic films, had "deeply unhealthy depictions of sex and relationships that glamorize and justify various forms of controlling abuse and domination", and there was only 15 minutes of plot in the film, if the sex montages, which comprised 80% of the film, were taken out.[2] Jessica Kiang, of Variety, said the film "is piping hot trash".[17] Kate Erbland, of IndieWire, also gave a negative review, saying "most audiences who tune into 365 Days: This Day are likely not seeking out female empowerment tales or coherent plots, but the disdain with which the film treats both its viewers and its star can't help but grate."[18] Oli Welsh, of Polygon, said "as difficult as it might be to believe, it's even worse than the first movie. But it goes down easier, because much of the first film's ugly side has been smoothed away."[19] Shaun Munro, of Flickering Myth, gave the film a 1 out of 5, saying "this blandly horny sequel tries in vain to distance itself from its predecessor's icky foundations, and while its sub-telenovela plot is outrageous enough to be perversely entertaining, by any standard metric it's truly terrible stuff."[20]

Sequel

[edit]

Plans for a sequel, titled The Next 365 Days, were delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4] In May 2021, it was reported that Netflix had started filming The Next 365 Days concurrently with This Day.[6] Morrone, Sieklucka, and Lamparska were all confirmed to return.[6] The film was released on August 19, 2022.[1]
