This glitzy yet dark comedy never lets up. The main characters are completely depraved, but somehow likable. The performances are great and the film looks beautiful! Worthy of you time!

What can I say... I was pretty high but I really liked this movie. The twists were entertainingly shocking and the characters were gripping; especially Eliza Coupe's portrayal which was devilishly hilarious. It kind of reminded me of a modern version of Weekend At Bernie's now that I think about it... over the top antics with a dark underbelly.

But no more than that. It like reviewer ferguson said, a charade, that easily couldve made a million on a broadway scene, but they took it to the movies, with partial success. Its a harrasment of the rich old men divorcing and marrying young lassies, about infidelity, about step moms and sons, and secret children of dead mistresses, and last but not least the typical fashion of rich young gay men. Its made in a lifetime style, where every opportunity to get rich is made,and everything is twinkling and shining like a colgate smile so when the sleazy, bored wife and stepson joins force and hires a hitgay to murder the old rich womanizer, things go balluba. Its a small cast, average production, shallow but witty story and plot, if spanish or french it wouldve been even broader and sharper than this, but its a try, and a small recommend from the grumpy old man.

What a great film...modern day Wild Things w a fresh cast. Can't wait to watch it again to see when I should have caught the twists the first time around!

George (Chris Baker) is the gay step-son of Lux (Eliza Coupe). He goes out with her so she can pick up guys. The find Joe (Greg Finley) at a bar. The discussions moves on until they decide to kill her husband (Eric Roberts) for the inheritance as he is not giving them any support. The dark comedy moves on from this point. It started out funny and over-the-top. As it attempts to move on into zany, it loses traction and doesn't work. Guide: F-word. Sex. Brief male butt nudity.

Randomly saw this movie and I have to say, I haven't had a better time at the theater in awhile. First off, the comedy is great. I can't remember the last time I laughed out loud but boy this movie pushed some limits and had me howling quite a few times. Remember when movies were just fun and entertaining to watch without a big lecture on a higher purpose. Well this movie was exactly that's. The Estate was short and sweet and just plain fun. Watch it if you are in for some good laughs and some tense action with a big twist!

Deserves one star..its such a garbage for me. Senseless and a 3rd class type movie. Just 1 star for everything. Such badly and lightly plotted and acted!

If dark comedy is your thing, then The Estate is a must-see movie! It does not disappoint, it's got a little bit of everything, suspense, cringe, laughs, romance, and murder. It'll keep you laughing and on your toes, not for the faint of heart. I thought it was thoroughly enjoyable and would highly recommend it.

Hilarious, sexy, camp - so glad I saw this dark comedy on the big screen! Love triangles, murderous romps, and a twisted plot had me LOLing throughout.

The combination of satirical dialogue, romance and murder make this a really entertaining film about the horrors of the 1% with a twist you won't see coming. For as thrilling as this premise is--a son and stepmom plot to kill their rich father/husband-I found myself laughing throughout this campy, fun film that is unapologetically queer. The over-the-top characters from the gay son with daddy issues to the seemingly stupid trophy wife turned calculated murderess turn basic stereotypes on their head in a way that felt really refreshing. I also thought the film's social commentary on victim narratives is ahead of its time. The tone reminded me of a lot of Jennifer's Body. When I heard "We're white and we're rich, we can kill one guy," it reminded me of the iconic line, "You're killing people! No, I'm killing boys!" There's not a lot of movies with this specific kind of dark humor so I really appreciated that. Also worth mentioning how great the cast was! Chris Baker was phenomenal, Eliza Coupe was hilarious, and the Lala Kent cameo was superb!
