The Estate

Emphasis on the fun. This movie is one of a kind. It teases out thrills from several different perspectives (murder, psycho-sexual, mystery, drama). All of those experiences get tied together from this sense of fun and humor that ties it all together.

The entire time you feel like you are in on the fun and in on the joke but without breaking the 4th wall. The self deprecating humor comes from an original and authentic voice that brings a sense of humanity and humility to the vapid.

Within the humor comes a satire that is a net positive experience for our culture. After leaving this film, you feel light-hearted and happy and more connected across socio economic classes, giggling all the while that it was a goofy medium the solidly delivered.

If dark comedy is your thing, then The Estate is a must-see movie! It does not disappoint, it's got a little bit of everything, suspense, cringe, laughs, romance, and murder. It'll keep you laughing and on your toes, not for the faint of heart. I thought it was thoroughly enjoyable and would highly recommend it.

What can I say... I was pretty high but I really liked this movie. The twists were entertainingly shocking and the characters were gripping; especially Eliza Coupe's portrayal which was devilishly hilarious. It kind of reminded me of a modern version of Weekend At Bernie's now that I think about it... over the top antics with a dark underbelly.

This glitzy yet dark comedy never lets up. The main characters are completely depraved, but somehow likable. The performances are great and the film looks beautiful! Worthy of you time!

The combination of satirical dialogue, romance and murder make this a really entertaining film about the horrors of the 1% with a twist you won't see coming.

For as thrilling as this premise is--a son and stepmom plot to kill their rich father/husband-I found myself laughing throughout this campy, fun film that is unapologetically queer. The over-the-top characters from the gay son with daddy issues to the seemingly stupid trophy wife turned calculated murderess turn basic stereotypes on their head in a way that felt really refreshing. I also thought the film's social commentary on victim narratives is ahead of its time. The tone reminded me of a lot of Jennifer's Body. When I heard "We're white and we're rich, we can kill one guy," it reminded me of the iconic line, "You're killing people! No, I'm killing boys!" There's not a lot of movies with this specific kind of dark humor so I really appreciated that.

Also worth mentioning how great the cast was! Chris Baker was phenomenal, Eliza Coupe was hilarious, and the Lala Kent cameo was superb!
