Watch: Daphne 2017 123movies, Full Movie Online – Daphne, 31, Londoner. Busy days, hectic nights, friends, people, lovers, are all welcome distractions from the constant and creeping feeling that her life is somehow stuck. Too young too settle quietly, too old to keep on messing about without aim. One night, an unexpected event slowly but steadily forces her to confront this existential limbo head on, and start looking very closely at the person she has become..
Plot: Daphne is a young woman negotiating the tricky business of modern life. Caught in the daily rush of her restaurant job and a nightlife kaleidoscope of new faces, she is witty, funny, the life of the party. Too busy to realise that deep down she is not happy. When she saves the life of a shopkeeper stabbed in a failed robbery, the impenetrable armour she wears to protect herself begins to crack, and Daphne is forced to confront the inevitability of a much-needed change in her life.

Timeless
Daphne is a timeless British film. By which I mean it could have pretty much been made at any time in the last 50 years, and be just as ‘meh.’ It’s one of those films that turns up on the telly and you look at the fashion and the streets but wonder why you’re actually watching. It’s a slight tale of a rather unlikable lonely girl who doesn’t really know what to do with her life. Emily Beecham gives a believable performance but with a male writer and male director it is ultimately a bloke’s fantasy idea of a 20something single girl about town. Everyone spouts their arch clever philosophies but anything that happens to Daphne doesn’t really seem to affect her. That said, she’s probably hardened by all those ghosts she used to hunt (which has clearly had an effect) and I applaud the film-maker’s willingness to hold back Fred, Shaggy and Velma until the sequel.
Like an empty fortune cookie
I get it, not all characters have to go through great changes in a movie, but following such an unlikeable person for 90 minutes with no payoff at any time was a disappointment. Why did they cut all the interesting supporting characters loose? Are we supposed to feel as lost as Daphne feels? There where many opportunities to make this a way better film but I felt that it didn’t go anywhere. Movie looked great at times though and the acting was good.
