The story
Murder and chaos erupt when a miser becomes obsessed with a toaster he gave as a wedding gift.
What it’s like
Dark-comic escalation with a crime-caper rhythm: a small domestic object becomes the centre of a snowballing mess, and the laughs come from people digging themselves deeper. The mood is absurd and busy rather than moody or still, with fast cuts and quick reversals suggested by the action and crime tags, though the specific look, palette and sound design are not something this description can vouch for. Expect a farcical register where stakes rise fast and the tone stays tongue-in-cheek. The intensity is real: murder drives the plot, and the action and chaos mean there is physical violence, so this is not gentle viewing, though it is played for comic irony more than for grim realism. It suits a casual weekend watch with friends, a night when you want something loud, silly and a bit mean-spirited, and a light genre fix rather than a slow, reflective film. It is for viewers who enjoy comedies with a criminal streak and characters whose greed or pettiness spirals out of control, and who are happy to laugh at the mess rather than sit with it.
