High-Rise

This surrealistic thriller definitely got in my head. I can't even pretend that I understood it all - hell, I'd be lucky if I got half of it. I definitely feel a second watching will illuminate more of the subtleties in the plot. The direction was magnificent, and I should have guessed the music was by Clint Mansell when it began to haunt me so early on in the film. The score also features a brilliant cover of Abba's "SOS" by Portishead that left me speechless. I was captivated by this, I will need to see it again. 4/5
