I watched this one before, and I'm in the middle of seeing it again. Great performances by both Olivia Cooke and Anya Taylor-Joy. Olivia's character feels no emotions; Anya's character feels (and/or tries to repress) too many emotions. …

Far as entertainment goes, excellent that the story did not go where I imagined from the start to finish because the pair of main teen characters were both outliers and amoral loners. Engaging film though the father figure should be much…

A solid movie about how we define good and evil. You can even take it a step further and look at this story as a breaking of the psycopath character trope that has become so common in horror and thriller movies since the 80s and 90s. Which…

"Overall, I really liked this movie. I thought it was very good. I didn’t really know what to expect other than Tim’s involvement from the description but that was ultimately wrong so lol. But all the acting from everyone is really good.…

I usually like dark humour or even twisted humour however I did not find this movie to be funny. Both girls were sociopaths that lack a conscience. Maybe I lost my sense of humour or just watched to many movies but I did not find this…

A low key and low budget attempt to do a Hitchcock film that combines Strangers on a Train and Rope. There is even a passing resemblence to the much superior Heavenly Creatures from Peter Jackson. Here we have two upper class young girls…

I heard this called a black comedy, and the trailer made it look a bit like "Heathers" and while it has a few comic moments, it's not really funny. Two teenage girls (Olivia Cooke, Anya Taylor-Joy) in a wealthy suburb plot the murder of…

Dark and twisted but sooo well done! The acting is really good and the movie is beautifully filmed and written/directed. Wouldn’t say the plot really matches with the various synopses but presumably they are trying not to give too much…

Highly disappointing. Not sure why I even borrowed this movie, the preview must have been more interesting. I fast-forwarded through much of the movie, because it was boring and the acting sucked. They made it look like the 2 girls were…

A dark, well written and entertaining movie. Certainly not something that will be for everyone, though, and that's okay.
I was very pleasantly surprised by it.

Really disliked it..Too dark and nasty! Didn't finish it! I didn't realize this was a Thriller! I have seen good thrillers in the past! This is not it! Good riddance! I wouldn't recommend it!

I really liked the way this movie answered a question while asking several more in the build-up of the plot. The ending, however, was quite the opposite - it telegraphed what was going to happen and didn't make much sense to me. A…

The preview looked interesting but the film blew me away. The writer/director is a young man but wise beyond his years. The acting was outstanding! Film-noir at it's finest!!! Highly recommended!!!

Very well-paced, intelligent black comedy. Acting excellent by all principals, including Anton Yelchin, who died fourteen days after shooting wrapped. Some incisive commentary/ observations on human behavior when money is no object in…
