SPOILERS BELOW
Stylish and confident, but when it's this shallow and derivative that tips into self-indulgence. A movie that's basically The Talented Mr Ripley or Six Degrees Of Separation or Parasite or Down And Out in Beverly Hills (with an admittedly cute reversal that I somehow didn't see coming but doesn't do much except provide a more interesting 'the riches lose their taste for the pov' beat than usual) doesn't need to be over two hours long and it certainly doesn't need a big montage at the end where all the utterly obvious twists are revealed like they're a surprise to anyone.
Rating: okay but, outside of a couple of well-executed shock value moments (the bath and the grave), seen it all before
