Acting and cinematography are incredible. But what really stands out is the writing , the villains are probably the most psychotic in film

If you like the home-invasion type movies similar to ”TheStrangers” (I HATE them), it’s worth the watch.

A very painful movie to watch and sit through. It was my first Haneke and I felt all of the pain in this movie. For me, it’s an all timer.

Michael Haneke molds a brilliant look into violence and the role it plays on the viewer. You question yourself for watching and enjoying it.

A very disturbing movie that breaks conventional rules. Brooding in its atmosphere & great in its performances. Great from beginning to end.
