"Suburbicon" - 3/4
This was a lot more enjoyable than reviews would admit. I think people have a problem with the unnecessary racial sub-plot but I get it man. It's a film about white entitlement, guilt, shame and the bad decisions that go along with it.
I enjoyed Julianne Moore and I thought the kid was pretty good too but Matt Damon really should play more neurotic heel characters. He played a dark hearted, amoral, fidgety snake in the grass as well if not better than he did in The Talented Mr Ripley. A few good bad-guy roles could see him land a proper Oscar someday.
