Very interesting portrayal of a sociopathy that aspires to the upper crust, and concocts a pretty good plan to get there. It includes several adjustments on the fly when it looks like he's about to lose it all but he manages to adapt and overcome with guile and patience. The family members are very eccentric to say the least and it makes this elaborate grift a bit easier to execute . But do know that they were all very talented and were very strong in their individual scenes. A perfect supporting cast. There are hints from The Talented Mr. Ripley but it is one movie that stands out on its own. Good to see Rosamund Pike again. Very easy to watch.

To be honest, I really don't know what to make of this movie. It had a few laughs, lots of chuckles and a few cringes. The story line was actually pretty decent and it made a few flashback connecters so you know why some things happened as they did. Reminded me of a modern day Svenghoolie type of movie they show of Friday nights. The actors were reasonably good, they executed their roles well and there was a good bit of chemistry amongst them but with some more so that others. It sounds like this was just an average movie, and for the most part it was. However, if there was another Onyx the Fortuitous movie, I'd actually go see it. And this is coming from an old guy. Oddly compelling.

I went to see this movie based on many of these reviews. A lot of characters are from other movies and TV shows that I remember plus you add Cindy Crawford's daughter and Marshawn Lynch so what the heck. These characters alone should carry this movie, and they did it quite well. It's your typical high school odd-characters-out movie with a gay twist. But they add a bit of the fight club angle and some solid strong characters with pretty good writing/dialogue. Add it all up and you have a pretty good funny, and emotional movie even though it has a few dead spots. I didn't see Bros but what I've read about that movie versus this one, Bottoms is a clear winner in the LGBTQ category.
