Dr. Steven Murphy is a renowned cardiovascular surgeon who presides over a spotless household with his wife and two children. Lurking at the margins of his idyllic suburban existence is Martin, a fatherless teen who insinuates himself into the doctor's life in gradually unsettling ways.
Este filme me deixou com um gosto amargo na boca, mas de uma maneira intrigante. A combinação de drama psicológico e horror gótico é como um prato inesperadamente picante - desconfortável, mas fascinante. A atuação de Colin Farrell e Nicole Kidman é impecável, e a direção de Yorgos Lanthimos é uma mistura incomum de crueza e formalismo. É um filme que exige uma mastigação lenta, mas vale a pena cada mordida. Uma experiência cinematográfrica que fica com você muito tempo depois dos créditos.
Lanthimos' work never fails to unsettle, and 'The Killing of a Sacred Deer' is no exception. The film's deliberate pacing and haunting atmosphere create an unnerving experience that lingers long after the credits roll. Farrell and Kidman deliver performances that are as chilling as they are compelling. The film's exploration of guilt, morality, and the nature of revenge is both thought-provoking and deeply unsettling. A true work of art that challenges conventional storytelling.
Yara, this Yorgos Lanthimos joint is a real mood. If you thought A24 thrillers were just moody lighting, you’re in for a cerebral treat. It's one of those films that grabs you by the collar and doesn't let go—a psychological thriller with a scalpel edge. Colin Farrell and Nicole Kidman serve up performances that are eerie and compelling, taking us down a rabbit hole of moral ambiguity and existential dread. If you're into the kind of films that make you question reality, this one's a keeper.
This film offered an unsettling exploration of guilt and retribution, executed with an almost surgical precision. The psychological depth and the moral dilemmas presented were compelling, pushing the narrative into territories less frequented by conventional thrillers. The performances were riveting, particularly Nicole Kidman's, which added a layer of complexity to the film's dark themes.
