Triangle of Sadness(2022)
Welcome back, I know you miss my mind-blowing and super awesome recommendations, so here is another one.
Actors which I know and I am assuming you know too
As the movie begins, you’ll think, ‘Who are these people?’ But wait for it… BAM! ‘Oh my God, he’s in this too?!’ And, of course, it’s Woody Harrelson — Hollywood’s equivalent of Snoop Dogg for white folks. He’s just… everywhere, like coriander on a plate. Why? No one knows, but we’re here for it.The rest of the cast? Oh, you’ll get some fresh faces serving jaw-dropping performances. Their look for this one is chef’s kiss. Get ready to see talent that’ll make you go, ‘Wait, how are they not A-listers yet?’ But don’t worry, Woody will be there to remind you it’s still showbiz.
Plot
I heard about this movie in the weirdest way — through an Instagram reel. You know, one of those clips with a bunch of dudes on mics going blah blah blah like they’re hosting a podcast no one asked for. Anyway, the name caught my attention, so I Googled it. Comedy genre? Cool. I thought, Alright, this’ll be a light-hearted laugh fest. Let’s go!
Spoiler alert: IT WAS NOT.
I kid you not, this movie had so many disgusting scenes I was not ready for it. Like, my popcorn went from snack to emotional support. Nothing about it was funny, but it was… something.
The story starts on this super fancy yacht — like, so fancy it probably has a helipad just for Instagram influencers. Zoom in, and we’re introduced to the three tiers of life on the yacht. First, the filthy-rich guests basically humans wrapped in designer logos. Second, the crew ; polite, smiling, dying on the inside. And lastly, the non-white cleaning crew, who are just trying to make it through the day without strangling the rich folks.
But just as you’re settling into this social commentary cruise, BAM! Pirates attack, bullets fly, chaos ensues, and only a handful of people survive. They end up stranded on a deserted island where everything flips.
Suddenly, the cleaning crew goes from “invisible” to “MVPs”. They’re out here making fire, hunting food, and surviving. Meanwhile, the rich folks are struggling to figure out how to peel a banana. The social hierarchy flips so hard, it’s like watching capitalism get body-slammed by Mother Nature.
It was wild, gross, and fascinating all at once. If you can stomach it, watch to find out what happens next and how far people will go to escape the island.
My wisdom regarding this movie
I honestly have to say, the writing in this movie was chef’s kiss. Some scenes were so complex, it felt like trying to explain why you still text your ex, you know it happens, it’s rare, and words just don’t cut it. But somehow, the writers nailed it, delivering dialogue so perfect it felt like they had insider info on awkwardly relatable disasters.
Sure, some scenes were stretched longer than a Marvel post-credit sequence. Like, we get it, move on! But the acting? Oh, a solid 10/10. Every single performer was in it even when they were knee-deep in chaos (or worse).
Now, let’s talk about the real MVP moment: watching the rich folks squirm. The satisfaction I got from their misery? Different level. It was like karma pulled up a chair, grabbed popcorn, and said, “My turn.”
Overall, it’s a great movie; gripping, thought-provoking, and absolutely packed with disturbing, disgusting scenes that will haunt you during dinner. But hey, that’s the charm, right?
Conclusion
Just watch it~
