The soundtrack and editing are really what pull THOROUGHBREDS together as what I consider a unique experience, but once it ended I was sort of left feeling 'meh.' It builds up its story in such a brilliant way that one can't help but feel it deserves better than the ending it got. Even if it were to end a few minutes earlier when a certain pivotal point is reached, I probably would've appreciated the film as a whole much more. Still, it's worth checking out.

Pretty goddamn incredible. It's a slow burn, but once the pot starts boiling, you've got yourself an experience that completely defies expectations. Great performances, visuals, direction. Pretty much great in every sense, even if I was somewhat less blown away with its first 30 or so minutes.

Overall Daphne is a fine movie. It has a relatively unlikeable lead character that becomes even more unlikeable after witnessing a stabbing. Prior to the stabbing, it's almost identical to any other struggling 30-year old woman story - and like many others, it pretty much ends where it starts. Beyond its slightly different (ultimately forgivable) take on a tired format we're brought to a ending that feels more heinous than fulfilling.
