Authentique mais de plus en plus incertain, Pete est excité et légèrement anxieux à l'idée de retrouver ses amis de l'université qui l'invitent à passer le week-end dans un pittoresque manoir anglais pour fêter son anniversaire. Mais les choses semblent devenir de plus en plus étranges alors que le week-end avance...

It’s great, reminded me a lot of _The Game_ by playing with this idea of: are we seeing a film told from the protagonist’s perspective about a guy who’s very neurotic and losing it, or is there something else going on? There’s a lot of tension that’s all very well built up and it managed to keep me guessing until its climax. Unlike _The Game_, it does not fall apart nor cheat with its own rules. Really love the dialogue and how it's written in general; it has just the right amount of dickish snark where everything could be interpreted ambiguously. Tom Stourton’s performance is absolutely phenomenal, and the rest of the cast does a great job as well. The cinematography could’ve been a little sharper at points, and there are some odd musical choices in the first few scenes that feel out of place, but this is very easily recommended (though you have to sit through a lof of stuff that’s intentionally cringy and awkward). 8/10
The birthday weekend from hell. The antagonist goes through an emotionally uncomfortable weekend, in which he thought was going to be a pleasant reunion with old uni friends. Paranoia sets in and keeps us guessing until the end. A very dark comedy in which it’s so dark, it transcends almost into horror. Much better than I imagined it would be and together with top notch acting, it’s a must watch. 9/10.
I'm surprised to see such low ratings for this movie. I thought it was so smart and so funny (albeit very dark). It's definitely a dry humor, too, but so good.
What a bizarre movie! Right from the start, there's a feeling of unease. Although it begins with a touch of comedy, the narrative gradually becomes strange and evolves into chaotic situations that arouse curiosity. The characters are great and quirky, intensifying the atmosphere of suspicion and discomfort. Their weird attitudes and embarrassing jokes create awkward and disturbing moments, making everything extremely distressing, intense and captivating.
