Review of Saltburn

Saltburn (2023)
5/10
The not so talented mr Ripley
24 December 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I know one can never truly love the talented mr ripley because Weinstein shoved Gwyneth Paltrow down our throats in the late 90s but this poor rip off even without Paltrow is just a wannabe that never manages to go anywhere.

Full of plot holes and easy solutions to lead the main character where they want him to go. But why? Was his goal just wealth? Originally it felt as if he was in love with the tall cute felix the cat which was understandable. But it went back and forth with that as well.

Also the setting was all wrong but it would be a complete ripley rip off is she placed it in a more accurate period. I mean yeah. They didn't have Instagram in 2006 but if you googled a name, some info would pop up.

Mediocre and too long. As always, Rosamund Pike and Carey were dreamy. They both deserve nominations. Carey was so good I would watch a spin off.
