TLDR -> A Crash Course in Consequences (for People Who’ve Never Faced Any)
GREAT WATCH!!!
Going in, I expected a comedy—maybe some stoned banter, a few regrettable tattoos, and a montage of poor decisions set to indie pop. You know, the usual “growing up is hard” fluff. What I got instead was a slow descent into chaos, privilege, and murder, dressed up as a family drama with a body count.
These kids who are now Adults? Spoiled, sheltered, and allergic to accountability. Their idea of problem-solving is stacking lies like Jenga blocks—each one wobblier than the last. One murder leads to another, like a twisted relay race where the baton is guilt and nobody wants to drop it… but they all do.
The film asks: what makes someone “good”? Apparently, it’s not honesty, empathy, or basic human decency—it’s loyalty to your bloodline and a willingness to clean up messes with increasingly criminal flair. The outsiders? Just collateral damage in the family’s sacred spiral of self-preservation.
And at the center of this dysfunction is a woman who holds it all together—not with wisdom or grace, but with sheer emotional duct tape. She’s the glue, the fixer, the one who keeps the family from imploding… while everyone else burns.
Watch it if you enjoy moral ambiguity, people panicking, and the slow realization that “doing the right thing” is often just code for “protecting our own.”
