REVIEW #282 Triangle of Sadness (2022)

Carl and Yaya, a pair of influencers, are invited on to a luxury yacht with a group of out of touch wealthy people when things take an unexpected turn as a storm hits.

Triangle of Sadness requires a lot of patience from its audience, however if you stick with it, the satire take on how the world prioritises wealth and beauty is really enjoyable. I think Harris Dickinson is brilliant and his performance perfectly matches to the tone and intention of the movie. The themes explored by director Ruben Ostlund are areas that I have such strong opinions about, from the argument over the bill to the peacock behaviour of the rich and it’s all approached in a really interesting way, subtle humour at its finest! The biggest fault is it’s pacing, it is rather slow and I think that restricted it’s score for me. 

Overall (7.5/10)

Thanks for reading.
