Our take
Rated MA 15+ for bloody violence including suicide, grisly images and language, this satire follows two men who kidnap a CEO they believe is an alien. NZ and Irish boards cite torture, electrocution and a rifle suicide with blood. Frequent f-word dialogue and dark conspiracy rants run throughout. Only for mature viewers comfortable with extreme violence and mental-health themes.
Uplifting themes
Anti-corporate themes exist, but the tone stays bleak
Story (may spoil tone)
Two conspiracy obsessed young men kidnap the high-powered CEO of a major company, convinced that she is an alien intent on destroying planet Earth.
