Very Good

Writer-director Neil LaBute's follow-up to his incendiary debut, In the Company of Men, is every bit as caustic--and just about as fascinating. This "modern immorality tale" about the tangled sex lives of three men and three women is a scathing, brutally funny, and ultimately disturbing satire of sexual and social mores that you may find yourself in deep discussion about your friends and neighbors--at least, those whom you believe to be your friends and neighbors--long after the film is over.
