Bruce says: “Joachim Trier ventures into English-speaking territory with a story of a family grieving for a wife/mother. Grieving, contrary to those who believe in absolutes, has ambivalent dimensions. The acting, directing and production values are way above par; however the storytelling leaves much to be desired. Eisenberg has the unnerving ability to simultaneously enthrall and repel; and any film that underutilizes Isabelle Huppert deserves to lose at least one cat.”
