Pretty tough watch, amazing cast that is completely believable despite the subject matter
Not for everyone, but if you like dark humor, this is the pinnacle!
Tragically disturbing film with and ensemble cast and some amazing acting.
This is a darkly funny film. Sick in places. Definitely worth watching!
I would have enjoyed this film way more had I watched it in college with my friends
It’s disturbing, very disturbing. But it’s beautiful, and thought provoking, and honestly hilarious.
The most pitch black dark comedy I’ve ever seen. Disturbing but a glimpse into the darkness of human desire
Portrays the more, dark, depressing aspects of average, everyday life. A must-watch
Incredibly dark, like take the darkest subject matter you can imagine and add a couple 0's. Pretty clever
a soft Solondz movie, as any other dark and hard to watch through, but somehow one needs too.
