Featured reviews
All psychopaths packed in one movie.
If you want to lose trust in humanity, watch it. It has plenty of bad persons that like to do things I've never ever thought about. Religion is a thing that can drive you crazy. I love the grain and unsettling feeling I get from this movie. But I'm happy that I've great people around me after watching this.
Great movie! Great performance!
A powerful movie! Great storyline, great acting!
Every key actor steals the show when its their time to shine. The acting is superb and deserves attention.
The plot is very deep, strong and emotional. This also may drive away unaware folks, since the movie might feel like it is dragging a bit. And it kinda does. You need to be up for a long ride if watching this and, if you like heavy dramas, this is one you will enjoy.
The score is good, but nothing over the top. I think it could be something else, but probably it is shadowed by the acting and the power this movie has.

Dark and disturbing yet calm and beautiful
The story telling is non linear. There are flashbacks and forth which makes the movie more beautiful as it needed for the dark atmosphere. All characters living in different places are well connected together at some point in the story. Brilliant acting by all the characters especially Holland and Pattinson. Well written characters and dialogues so you will even connected with the few minutes appearing characters like the uncle and the neighbor guy. The movie is emotional but it will not drain you. The background music is very well done.
It is a two hour plus movie but you will be glued to the screen until the last scene and it will let you free in a nice way.

I did not expect this.
Wow. I thought I was in for something else. I didn't think this movie would be in such a high level on artistic grounds. Great story and the director shot with a correct pace which would not bore us. The casting was excellent and all did great. The music is other impressive thing in this movie. I'm happy that Netflix is delivering some content driven good movies nowadays. Overall, I recommend this movie because it's crazy and worth your time.
amazing performances by everyone
Every performance in the film is flawless in my opinion. the characters are all very well written and the story is too. if this movie does not get any Oscar nominations I will be pissed. easily one of the best movies of 2020, not that I have seen many.
Did you know
- TriviaRobert Pattinson didn't work with a dialect coach and crafted his high-pitched Southern drawl on his own. The actor hid his accent from everyone - including director Antonio Campos - until day one of filming. Other actors sent Campos recordings of the voices they were working on - but not Pattinson, preferring to rehearse by himself and getting self-conscious by being judged before actually standing in front of the camera. Campos called Pattinson a "mad genius who can do anything."
- GoofsRussell's 1948-1950 Ford truck has a late-model steering column, steering wheel, and column shift for an automatic transmission. It's seen early when Russell drives over to beat up the poachers. That truck would have had a manual transmission and a very different steering wheel.
