Moreover, a critic from Ready Steady Cut called it a “deeply unhealthy depictions of sex and relationships that glamorize and justify various forms of controlling abuse and domination”. 

Critics have said that the movie is outrageous and there would be very little storyline left if all the intimate scenes are removed since most of the movie involves sensual scenes and there is no original chemistry seen between the characters. Despite the thrashing reaction the first movie received, creators continued to release two more sequels.

Will the uneventful end of Laura lead to another sequel?

This year, 365 Days: This Day dropped on Netflix on April 27, 2022, and The Next 365 Days, on August 19. The storyline of the second part started after the newly married couple lost their unborn child, and Laura starts feeling detached from Massimo, showing interest in Nacho.

In this heated fight between a ruthless gangster and a Mafia rival, Laura get shot in the end. Falling into the arms of her husband the movie ends without any conclusion what happened to her. The latest installment will likely take the story further. The question that rises here is whether there will be another sequel after the third one.
