Review of Saltburn

Saltburn (2023)
6/10
I give it a marginal recommendation
23 November 2023
A strange one. Oliver (Barry Keoghan who looks like a young John Hurt) is attending Oxford University in the UK. He's shy and withdrawn. Then he meets outgoing, charasmatic Felix (Jacob Eldordi) and they become friends. Felix invites Oliver to spend the summer at his huge estate with him and his family. However his family is heavily dysfunctional and things get out of control. It all leads to an incredible twist ending that I didn't see coming. It's well-made and the acting is good. However it's slow-moving and the thick accents render some of the dialogue unintelligible. Still I give it a marginal recommendation.
