The Guardian
It's pitiless and pitch-perfect, an existential tour-de-force with shades of Camus's The Outsider.

Sundown
Tim Roth (The Hateful Eight) and Charlotte Gainsbourg (Antichrist) lead this slow-burn suspense drama from the writer-director of New Order, nominated for the Golden Lion at the 2021 Venice Film Festival and Best Film at the London Film Festival. Co-stars Samuel Bottomley (Get Duked!) and Albertine Kotting McMillan (A Very British Scandal).
Neil (Roth) and Alice Bennett (Gainsbourg) are the core of a wealthy family on vacation in Mexico with younger members Colin and Alexa (Bottomley, McMillan) until a distant emergency cuts their trip short. When one relative disrupts the family’s tight-knit order, simmering tensions rise to the fore.

One of the pleasures of "Sundown" is that it is impossible to guess where it is heading - and it heads in some bizarre directions.

Hollywood Reporter
The film's unrelenting nature becomes more sour and unrewarding as it inches forward.

A genuinely chilling movie that just happens to take place in bright, abundant sunshine.
