Huh, wow. What an exceptional performance from Natalie Portman and a fantastic film.

It’s one of those where the plot is laid out before you, but minute-to-minute you never quite know where it’s going. There’s lots of tension from different angles, and a mix of psychological and body horror, but it all feels like one cohesive, expertly told story.
