Suburbicon (2017) - Perfect balance between crime flick, dark comedy and social drama - 9/10 (15/11/17)

Suburbicon is a movie that doesn't deserve the overwhelmingly negative critics it gets. The movie is an ambitious mixture of a crime flick, dark comedy and social drama in almost equal parts. This isn't unusual for a script by the talented Coen brothers...
