A patient, formally daring work — the cinematography lingers on empty rooms longer than most audiences will tolerate, but those who stay are rewarded with the most haunting final act of the year.
Jailbait
The world’s most notorious jackass, Matt Pritchard of Dirty Sanchez fame, has been unceremoniously tossed into prison on a trumped-up indecent exposure charge. And life on the inside is less kind than you’d think for the mad Welshman who’s made a name for himself self-inflicting bodily harm and inserting assorted objects into places where the sun don’t shine. Like Paris Hilton before him, Pritch has become the ultimate Subservient Celebrity – and now you’re calling the shots.

I walked in expecting another genre exercise and walked out feeling like I'd been eavesdropping on a confession. The lead performance is genuinely singular — a career-defining turn.

A few too many scenes feel borrowed from a better film, but the soundtrack and the production design carry the rest. Solid recommendation for fans of slow-burn European thrillers.
