Master of social discomfort Ruben Östlund trains his unsparing lens on the world of wealth, beauty, and privilege in this audacious, Palme d’Or–winning satire of our status-obsessed culture. A model-influencer couple (Harris Dickinson and Charlbi Dean) get a ticket to the luxe life when they’re invited aboard an all-expenses-paid cruise alongside a coterie of the rich and ghoulish—but an act of fate turns their Insta-perfect world upside down. Pushing each provocative set piece to its outré extreme, Östlund maps the shifting social hierarchies with the irreverence of a modern-day Luis Buñuel and the incisiveness of a cinematic anthropologist.

Great movie!
I had no expectations with this movie but a friend recommended it. I laughed SO HARD that the cat looked at me like I was a crazy person as I doubled over on the couch in hysterics laughing so much. The messages in the movie were sort of subliminal but are sooooooo true. I totally recommend this movie if you need a [pick me up] or something to just laugh at.

Sticks with you
This film is a deeply funny albeit sober and often tragic meditation on class, wealth, human vanity, and social justice that might keep you awake for several nights. There are so many memorable sequences here, for example a set piece involving dinner on a luxury yacht during bad weather that is … well, just see it.

The most over-rated film of its era?
Triangle of Sadness is a movie that wallows in its cheaply earned contempt and easy, sophomoric cynicism like a hog in slop. It despises every character and scene it depicts from the beginning of the movie (a campy man interviewing skinny bare torso male models) to the end (one of those models racing through an island’s jungle toward his girlfriend who has probably just been murdered by an avenging worker on a yacht taking rich people on cruises). Watching it is a bit like listening to potty-mouthed children or boys trying on four letter words for size just to show off.Its politics, such as they are, are equally superficial, even stupid, reeking of cliché and platitude and folly, like its seemingly endless scenes of people vomiting their sickeningly over-the-top, absurd meals and toilets exploding with waste. Money as waste and sickening consumption: that is the level of its ideological discourse, to put it far too high-mindedly.There is nothing in any of this that shows the least awareness of how shallow every scene of this mindless movie is: not just what it purports to show, but how it shows it. Nor does the film exhibit any awareness that, if one so chooses, one might easily use it as an example of the waste of ill-gotten riches on ill-earned and useless goods like the movie itself.Every person in it is a caricature, with no more dimension or weight than a cartoon. And it is all so predictable. How many times in movies and in fiction has the commonplace of rich folks unable to cope for themselves marooned on a desert island recurred? Well, Triangle takes us there again, relying on all the old, obvious morals. No comparison I can think of does Triangle any good.Worst of all, in a way, is the fact that it is long, far too long, and boring. I watched Triangle of Sadness because I heard good things about it and because it was issued by Criterion, usually a good recommendation in itself.But after I’d seen it I felt belittled by it, guilty in a way for having watched something that bad and empty and contemptible. And that is the effect it has had, I gather now, on others as well. It is a movie that wastes itself and its viewers on its unrelenting diminishment of everything it sees and looks upon as if with the eyes of a proudly arrogant, unformed, smirking, ignorant, and angry adolescent, consumed by contempt for the world and self-righteousness,

Thumbs down in comparison to Ostlund’s prior movies
I purchased this blu ray based in this directors previous movie “the square”. This one comes nowhere close. The theme of ridiculing the bourgeoise class is taken to the extreme and sickening levels with no redeeming features. You’d do well to give this one a miss and hope his next venture is more finessed and artistic.

A must see!
Needed to watch twice and am still laughing. Will see again. The subtlety of film takes a sec to sink in but is so very spot on. Harrelson and friend one upping each other politically on live mic on Christina O, Onassis’s yacht is not to be missed. Five howling stars!!

Unexpected and entertaining
I went through a lot of phases in this film. I started out hating it. Carl and Yaya are the most incessantly bland and irritating people I’ve seen on screen in a while. The cruise starts and its a little funny, Woody Harrelson was the shining point. Then the mayhem kicks in and I started really enjoying what was happening. All of these terrible people are getting their comeuppance. The Island is fun and evolves very interestingly. I wasn’t sure what to think of the end right away but I think I love it. Its an ending that let’s you kinf of fill in what is happeningx testing what kind of person you are.This was much better than I expected. And I actually like that weird, out of place Refused drop in the middle of the yacht sequence.

An Outrageous, Brilliantly Barbed Social Satire …and Surprisingly Funny!
Invoking the mischievous cinematic spirit of masters Luis Buñuel and Lina Wertmüller’s subversive films of the 1970’s for a modern audience, director Ruben Östlund’s razor sharp political and social satire Triangle Of Sadness (2022) won the Palme d’Or at Cannes for good reason, not only is does it directly tackle it’s themes of class warfare, society’s glib views of egalitarianism, unfettered capitalism and confused view of socialism, intrinsic values, a touch of sexual mores, taking aim at the privileged, the clueless, the beautiful and the famous, and eventually how it all makes for strange bedfellows, but it is also quite funny- as in laugh out loud funny. The film starts out slow and lays the groundwork for it’s thematic allegory with an awkward fashion model couple’s petty arguments over money and equality in relationships, before moving them to the setting of a luxury yacht cruise populated with eccentric and obnoxious passengers. Here we are introduced to -among the more curious of the group- a buffoonish Russian fertilizer tycoon, an upper crust elderly British couple of weapon manufacturers, a pathetic tech billionaire, the seriously professional all too eager to please crew, and the hard drinking Captain that refuses keep his political and philosophic ideology to himself, preparing for the stormy Captain’s Dinner before the film dovetails into a wild seasickness inducing nautical nightmare definitely making it a night to remember. The crazy aftermath shifts the film into a surprisingly poignant quest for survival. Excellent direction and writing, the hilarious ensemble cast with Woody Harrelson a stand out, quirky use of classical music, and fine cinematography of some pretty gross and grotesque material makes this a brilliant and accessible arthouse film without the typical highbrow cinematic obstacles. It really exceeded my expectations. Definitely recommended to those already familiar with the director’s Swedish cringe-worthy situation and dilemma based observational comedy films Force Majeure (2014) and The Square (2017). Compare with the similar Parasite (2019), Swept Away… (1974), The Exterminating Angel (1962), or The Discreet Charm Of The Bourgeoisie (1972)- all masterpieces. This Criterion Blu Ray contains a very nice amount of extras include some deleted scenes, an interview, and featurettes on the shooting of the film, and the surprising amount of subtle visual effects, a short essay booklet, and I must say -the cover artwork is really cool. Highly recommended.
