This is a good movie. It depicts the dysfunctional lifestyle of a grandiose narcissist (Rory) - talks big, lives in fantasy and delusional. Manages to manipulate others. Coerced the wife to relocate, no care for the impact of his wild fantasy on others, always looking for ways to exploit others, lives way beyond means.

The wife who feels exhausted and lonely but tried to keep it together till she couldn't.

Then the children who felt lost and disconnected with so much instability. They've moved 10 times🤦🏽‍♀️
The visit to his Mum subtly exposes the childhood trauma he experienced from his dad. Pay attention to Rory's reply when his Mum said 'Bless him' about his dad.

These types of narcissist are not necessarily physically abusive, they're delusional and keep you in the loop till you lose a sight of yourself.
Brilliant movie. Great acting. I like that the ending leaves you to draw your own conclusions.

For anyone wondering - this movie is made about the drama in a family but it is shot with the sort of camera angles and music that seem like horror movie tropes.
It’s not a horror film but it is made to look like that

Even tho this movie is receiving a lot of criticism, it shows how little people live in situations like this. It managed to show my whole family situation like a book, my parents working a risky job where we are either completely broke without enough for groceries, or momentarily thriving with money. The unstable relationship with money ruined everyones view about each other. I found myself relating to Ben the most, being the younger sibling seeing your whole family in chaos leaves a permanent scar on you. Rory truly and utterly reminded me of my father and the horrible gambler he is when it comes to money. Sam is a rebellious teen the same way my sister was, leaving me all alone all day long. Alice just being stuck in between, hiding money from her husband with the constant fights and arguing hit too close to home. Would never wish for someone to go through this no matter what.

Jude Law knocks that role out of the park. A super film that depicts English obsession with class and status very well. Not sure if it will resonate with the American audience but I genuinely know someone in London who is basically a real life version of Jude Law's character - even some phrases he says in the movie are identical . It hasn't changed much over the years.

[chrisslight]

that was disgusting how he excluded the girl Samantha from his family during the introduction of the family to his mother. he was denying his stepdaughter all the times.. but at the end, the girl was the first one who accepted him again

[ArwenUndomiel]

So it’s about drama in a dysfunctional family. If I wanted to see that I’d go and have lunch with my family on the weekend. There: I saved myself 40 euros.

Honestly, trailers for arthouse films should be a scene snippet rather than a bunch of scenes/dialogues mashed together.

This movie was phenomenal.

Apparently there were two movies called The Nest released at roughly the same time. One was about a horrifying bugs nest in a little girl's stuffed bear... and the other one was this.

Stop this movie at 1 hr 30 min mark, and make up your own ending. I guarantee it will be better than the one in the movie.

The daughter's music transitioned from synth pop to post punk as the family turmoil ramped up. Why Rory was not making the trades he had a talent for while waiting for a big payout from an unlikely buy-out of his employer is unclear, but I noticed an implication of laziness while he was living in the US. His wife sure took pleasure dropping turds in the punch bowl at every business get-together.

Why did Allison try to dig up her dead horse? What had her son seen? Why did he say, mom, I have to show you something then lead her to his grave?
The horse is a SUPERB actor btw.

Finally found the soundrack... Spiral - Epic Foley Rhythms

I am 57 years old and I dont know how long I have left but I just wasted 1 hour 47 mins watching a film about nothing

[Marfmellow]

I really liked this movie, what a great character study. Netflix called it a psychological thriller lol no, it is family drama. The two leads were great and the writing was wonderful and refreshing...we are all used to terrible writing these days. All the characters are flushed out and you care about them and sympathize with them and relate to them. Would highly recommend!

[cromerbeach]

Lol everyone's got a Rory in their family maybe not to that extreme but we all do

[jhonwick]

"from the Director of Martha Marcy May Marlene" now I understand why it has an eerie feeling. I keep on pulling back from watching this film cause I thought this was a horror film.

[Zecamilleo]

Every frame in this movie is a painting

[RosieHarp]

There is literally *nothing* in this film that would suggest it's set in the 1980's. A few perfunctory mentions of the 'Big Bang' and references to 80's politicians.
Dross

[taniavann]

It feels like it could be a 'beware of bipolar' cautionary tale?
About to lay eye balls on it

The only thing I got from the film was the opportunity of English listening practice
