A family vicethe review

An apocalyptic climate Pervade A family vice When the protagonist enters the father’s villa and meets his “family”, dyeing the sharp comedy tones. A world separated from the rest of the world that appears on the point of collapsing, although at first glance everything shows up shiny and sumptuous. Looking at them as neighbors, the attitudes of the characters are definitely over the lines and bizarre, but The grotesque effect is emptied of any comic effect. The director is ruthless in his portrait, so much so that Stephane also does not embody the classic rational detective who came to resolve a mystery from the outside, but in spite of himself a fruit that has not fallen too far from the tree.

In the second part, the intrigue takes over the tension does not fallthanks to numerous twists and reversals, never forced. Without a clear mystery to be deciphered, but many possible ideas and paths to take, the viewer is invited several times to reconsider what he is witnessing. The winning weapon is then the large group of characters at the center of history, each well characterized by a few but incisive traits. A microcosm that, like in Knives Outbecomes an expression of an entire nation, of which the film provides a very little edifying image.
