Our take

Four long-time couples push past polite boundaries in a relationship comedy that turns jealous and tense. Lots of sexual talk, party drinking, cannabis and regular swearing sit in the mix, and some kill threats and a suicide mention land in the later stretch. Fine with a parent from 15. Younger teens who dislike adult relationship heat or dark party talk should skip it.

Uplifting themes

It asks what honesty and desire do to long friendships Adults mostly chase ego and secrets more than repair

Story (may spoil tone)

Four couples sail the thin line between desire and search for authenticity, in a world where truth is as fragile as their relationships.
