Our Review Editorial
A marriage already creaking under its own weight gets a very bad idea: invite the enigmatic couple from upstairs down for dinner. What follows is a chamber piece that tightens like a screw, all polite smiles and second glasses of wine while something far less civil moves underneath the tablecloth. The setup promises the particular dread of a night you cannot leave, where every question from a neighbour lands a little too close to the bone and the tagline's cheery promise curdles by the second course.
Best suited to viewers who like their tension domestic and verbal rather than loud, and who enjoy watching two people be slowly, expertly dismantled in their own dining room. At under two hours it stays lean, letting discomfort build through conversation instead of incident. If you gravitate toward unsettling dinner-party thrillers and stories where a relationship is the real crime scene, this is a sharp, squirm-inducing pick for a night in with your phone face down.
