Thoroughbreds




This is a perfect fucking film. It is stylish, witty, funny, bloody, sexy. It is well acted, well shot, has a brilliant score. Trailers had me thinking Heathers, the first 15 minutes or so reminded me of a Donnie Darko era Richard Kelly(was there another era?) . The film unravels in such away that at first you admire how it is shot, then you are taken back by the script, this screenplay I hope is nominated for best screenplay, it is great, then you are amazed at how brilliant the cast is, and the cast is indeed brilliant. The characters are multi layered even if one, or both are sociopaths, the "antagonist" is a real fucking prick, their patsy you feel for. These are all flared characters, these are all flawed wealthy characters, these are all flawed, wealthy characters that do fucked up things. This film isn't fucked up, but it is brilliant enough, funny enough & bloody enough to deserve to be a cult classic. I hope it becomes one, cause honestly at the moment this is far and beyond everything else i have seen this year. I fucking loved this film, it is perfect.
