He makes astute observations about small social niceties but he pushes every awkward situation to the point where viewers gasp and wince.

For stlund subtlety is overrated. Triangle of Sadness shows us why he has a point. It's a spectacular demolition of modern life a disruptor movie full of ideas and nuance as violent in its way as a Pieter Bruegel painting.

Triangle of Sadness doesn't leave audiences with much to unpack thematically but it's clear-eyed and hilarious about the systems that enforce societal inequities and what might happen if they were ever to unravel.

There's an interesting cast of mostly unknown actors (Harrelson excepted) and the film is very well staged. Maybe the Cannes accolade was a bit on the generous side though.

There is scarcely a gag or scenario that isn't telegraphed and obvious and yet it's seemingly just as satisfied with its own cleverness as its targets are with their over-pampered empty lives.

What starts out as a ripping hot-blooded social satire skewering wealth insta-fame and class snobbery dies almost exactly half-way through...What a pity that something that begins so witty and dry should end up so witless and wet.
