HARDLY THE BEST PICTURE OF THE YEAR // DISTURBING VIOLENCE

Rating: 1/10 (12 February 2020)

This movie starts out well, with a rather humorous idea for the storyline, a family of grfiters insinuates themselves into a well today household by lying and deception. Then the movie influence perhaps by Quentin Tarantino films, disintegrates into a grisly ending of murder at a child's birthday party. Some are trying to exalt, including the Academy of Arts, into something symbolic and important. Frankly, it comes across to me as sadistic violence as a form of enjoyment. Sorry I went. Maybe they should call it 'the Academy of Deviants' because they seem to like those kinds of films best!
