Similar to the calculated and observational style of Stanley Kubrick and Yorgos Lanthimos, Sean Durkin's newest feature is a drama/horror tale about the dangers of greed and ambition. Jude Law and Carrie Coon each give career-best performances as a couple that is forced to come to terms with their increasingly meaningless lives. With the gap between the haves and the have nots becoming wider every day, this social critique is timely in the present and I suspect it will continue to be in the future.
