If You're Gonna Spew, Spew Into This

While I expected Ruben Östlund's wicked comedy to completely skewer the rich, he actually presents quite a few in a decent light - but it's still fine to watch them suffer. From a pair of influencer models (Harris Dickinson and Charlbi Dean - may she rest in peace) to a Russian oligarch specializing in fertilizer (Zlatko Buric) to a delightful old British couple who made their fortune by mass producing weapons of war (Amanda Walker and Oliver Ford Davies) - the film is also packed with memorable characters - with Woody Harrelson standing out as the communist-bend captain and Dolly De Leon as the help-turned-savior once things really take a turn for the worse. Granted, you may find it hard to stomach the post-captain dinner orgy of bodily fluids, but stick with it as the film truly shines the worse things get.
