Truly a dark comedy and done quite brilliantly as well! I'd like to give it a 6.5 to be more exact but just saw this and I'm not disappointed that I did. Another reviewer likened the comedy to slapstick but I wouldn't lower it to such a level. It's really just wonderfully absurd. And even when you see something coming, you'll marvel at how you can laugh at such things.
We can go into why it doesn't get a higher score from me, but... well, boy oh boy, what they were able to do in this film was just remarkable. You get the really messed up laughs, but they manage to twist the knife as well while pulling it out. What it leaves you with is... well, not in a pretty place.
A fine film; and the short dramatic bits will leave a stinging taste in your mouth while you leave the theater with a smile on your face.
We need more movies like this.
