High-Rise

Year: 2015

Director: Ben Wheatley

Rotten Tomatoes: 60%

Plot: A doctor moves into an ultra-modern high-rise where residents are divided by wealth and social status. As the building's systems begin failing, the residents descend into increasingly violent chaos while the tower becomes its own isolated society.

Marcela Notes: Damn I'm glad I'm poor and live in a shoeboex. NGL I walked out of the last like 5 minutes I was so done with this, but its been literally over ten years since my last watch so perhaps the time has come to revisit and reevaluate. I usually love Ben Wheatley films! And Tom and Tilda? Love!? 

Fun Fact: The record player seen in the opening belongs to the same rare Transcriptors Reference Turntable used by Alex in A Clockwork Orange.
