Triangle of Sadness Reviews

Has little new to say about human greed but the acting and comic observation is superb

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 17, 2025

As a satire on fashion and the super-rich, Ruben Östlund’s Triangle of Sadness has its moments, but isn’t entertaining or incisive enough to fully work.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 25, 2024

For those who value smart class commentary, wrapped in top notch production design and entertainment, then “Triangle of Sadness” is one that’ll repulse the eyes but greatly satisfy the mind.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 15, 2024

No more interesting or enlightening than your average troll pointing out that you, too, live in a society.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 3, 2024

Despite some fascinating performances from Charlbi Dean Kriek and Woody Harrelson, director Ruben Östlund bites off more than he can chew and struggles to digest it.

I didn’t hate it…I just didn’t love it, the last act felt like it was spinning its wheels

| Original Score: B- | Apr 24, 2024

I was rolling on the floor laughing

Although at times the charisma of Woody Harrelson can smooth the waters, this movie does not have the intelligence of Parasite -with which it has certain thematic links-, but neither has the audacity of the films of Radu Jude. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 4/10 | Dec 19, 2023

Ruben Östlund cements himself as the people’s satirist. Laying bare an incendiary critique of the 1% that never pats itself on the back, instead being the rare epic that invites its audience to take part in its blistering dismantlement of the idle rich.

Bitter, clever and absolutely on the money.

Even though Triangle of Sadness is entertaining, Östlund could’ve taken more steps to criticise the shallowness of wealthy people and social media influencers.

| Sep 8, 2023

"Gilligan's Island" holds up as a better example of the left roasting right-wing capitalist pigs, whose greed knows no sliver of human decency.

| Original Score: TWO STARS | Aug 5, 2023

The surprising turn of events in Triangle of Sadness leads to an inevitable conclusion; power is the ultimate form of currency, and even the lowliest of dictators will do whatever it takes to hang onto it.

| Jul 26, 2023

"Triangle of Sadness" is a true artist's take on people's twisted behavior when they know they have leverage.

| Jul 25, 2023

The target of Ruben Östlund’s latest class satire is a takedown of the tone-deaf rich on the high seas. Unfortunately, this satire doesn’t challenge the status quo but flatters like-minded individuals thoughts on class and wealth.

| Jul 25, 2023

This satirical late capitalist parable about the rich’s intolerant food chain and gender roles is never detained by the sledgehammer procedure of its creator.

| Original Score: B+ | Jul 25, 2023

Triangle of Sadness loses credibility by backing off in the film’s final moments. We’re left with a cliffhanger, a reminder of the limits Östlund could have gone to.

| Jul 24, 2023

If at times its gross out humour can prove a bit too much, the razor sharp script and timely subject matter keep it a constantly engaging film that rarely feels its runtime.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 19, 2023

I found it to be far too obvious and much too long; it's nowhere near as searing and subtle as Östlund's 'Force Majeure,' which had an emotional sting.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 29, 2023

As was the case with Force Majeure (and not so much the case with The Square), Triangle of Sadness is funny, at times outrageously so.
