Set against the clinical, sterile backdrop of a high-end ski resort and punctuated by Vivaldi’s Summer (The Four Seasons), the film feels like a psychological horror movie masquerading as a domestic drama. Why It Works
The film forces the audience to confront uncomfortable questions: Is a man’s worth tied to his role as a protector? Is a momentary lapse in "heroism" an unforgivable character flaw?
It is surprisingly funny, though the humor is of the "cringe" variety that makes you want to look away from the screen. Final Verdict
The vast, cold beauty of the Alps emphasizes the insignificance of the characters' egos.
Johannes Kuhnke (Tomas) and Lisa Loven Kongsli (Ebba) are phenomenal. Their escalating tension feels raw and claustrophobic.
Force Majeure is a masterful study of human instinct versus social expectation. It is uncomfortable, provocative, and will likely spark a long debate with whoever you watch it with about what you would have done in that split second.
