In Ruben Östlund's wickedly funny Palme d'Or winner, social hierarchy is turned upside down, revealing the tawdry relationship between power and beauty. Celebrity model couple, Carl (Harris Dickinson) and Yaya (Charlbi Dean), are invited on a luxury cruise for the uber-rich, helmed by an unhinged boat captain (Woody Harrelson). What first appeared instagrammable ends catastrophically, leaving the survivors stranded on a desert island and fighting for survival.

Critics Consensus

Triangle of Sadness lacks the sharp edges of Östlund's earlier work, but this blackly humorous swipe at the obscenely affluent has its own rewards.

Audience Says

With an intriguing premise held back by uneven execution, Triangle of Sadness has some sharp points as well as some lopsided angles.

The title doesn’t effectively sell how chaotically funny and eviscerating Ruben Ostlund’s social satire is.

Rated: 4/5

He makes astute observations about small social niceties, but he pushes every awkward situation to the point where viewers gasp and wince.

Loud and Clear Reviews

As a satire on fashion and the super-rich, Ruben Östlund’s Triangle of Sadness has its moments, but isn’t entertaining or incisive enough to fully work.

Rated: 2.5/5

For those who value smart class commentary, wrapped in top notch production design and entertainment, then “Triangle of Sadness” is one that’ll repulse the eyes but greatly satisfy the mind.

No more interesting or enlightening than your average troll pointing out that you, too, live in a society.

The open-ending was to my surprise which was slightly disappointing, but I thought it was a good movie, overall.

Best possible ending for rollicking humor, about as close to socially offensive as possible while laughing hysterically, just as the midpoint drunken philosophical banter becomes the final reality of the plot. Catching the audience up, then dumping the conflict into the audience's collective lap: brilliant!
