Rated 94% on Rotten Tomatoes
A critical favorite and word-of-mouth sensation at this year’s Cannes Festival (winner of the Jury Prize in Un Certain Regard), this wickedly funny and precisely observed psychodrama tells the story of a model Swedish family–handsome businessman Tomas, his willowy wife Ebba and their two blond, pre-teen children-on a skiing holiday in the French Alps where Tomas makes a decision that will shake the family’s world to its core.
“The most acutely observed comedy of the year, if not in several years.” – Richard Lawson, Vanity Fair
“This filmmaker is in control at each and every moment, and does he ever know what he is doing. …Shrewd, bitingly comic and psychologically astute.” – Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times.
“Brilliant. ” – Stephen Holden, New York Times
“FORCE MAJEURE is a jolt. You won’t know what hit you. …Director Ostlund shifts gears from humor to psychological thriller with cunning skill. ” – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
“Brilliantly perceptive and frostily funny.” – Aaron Hillis, Village Voice
“FORCE MAJEURE is ultimately about something not often explored in film: the consequences of male weakness in a world in which men are expected to be strong at all times. ” – Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
“A film that makes you murmur in amazement as you watch.” – David Edelstein, New York Magazine
