Best movie of this year hands down!
A Masterpiece!
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
