Beth Webb Empire Magazine 8h
2/5
This dark comedy’s aesthetic glossiness seeps over the story’s jagged edges, leaving a smooth, glassy and impenetrable movie with nothing new to say. Go to Full Review Kevin Maher The Times (UK) 10h
2/5
Despite some solid work from Bell and Fanning, this remains a tedious one-message movie. Go to Full Review David Sexton New Statesman 4d
But the film so delights in indulging its own bad taste that it simply doesn’t work as a satire on family dysfunction, patriarchal tyranny, late capitalism, label mania or any other worthy target. Go to Full Review Alistair Harkness Scotsman 6h
1/5
And on it goes, to little purpose, its icky excesses cynically calculated to distract from fact it has nothing substantial to say about the world of wealth and privilege it’s trying so very hard to satirise. Go to Full Review Brian Viner Daily Mail (UK) 8h
2/5
Karim Ainouz's film, written by Yorgos Lanthimos's collaborator Efthimis Filippou, is tremendously stylish on the eye, yet commensurately disappointing on the mind. Go to Full Review Tom Shone Sunday Times (UK) 10h
2/5
Sadly, what we get is less a mystery than another satire of inherited wealth, privilege and family — again — from film-makers too entranced by all the perversity on display. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
