4 stars out of 5 -- A brittle black comedy that has plenty to say about modern manhood and the human survival instinct.
Empire
Apr 2, 2015
This brilliant, viciously amusing takedown of bourgeois complacency, gender stereotypes and assumptions and the illusion of security rubs your face in human frailty as relentlessly as any Michael Haneke movie.

Rating: 7.6/10 -- That absence of a strong conclusion, along with the comedic tone, makes Force Majeure light on its feet, an enjoyable but not too penetrative exploration of a fascinating topic. Full Review

[A] quietly devastating tinderbox psychodrama....It feels like a missing chapter from fellow Swede Ingmar Bergman's 1973 masterpiece of matrimonial atrophy, SCENES FROM A MARRIAGE. -- Grade: A-
