Armstrong’s version of tech-bro bantering is a lot more literate and zingy than actual tech-bro bantering would be...

Med techmiljardärer, AI-kaos och sylvass dialog speglar Jesse Armstrongs regidebut “Succession” i både stil och substans, men lyckas inte nå samma djup.

...isn't just Succession for tech bros – it's something far darker.

Although the film is heavy on talk and light on action, it’s perversely pleasurable to spend time with these hollow scumbags who perceive real people’s lives as “fungible human assets”.

More than any comedy or even film I’ve seen recently, this is movie driven by the line-by-line need for fierce, nasty, funny punched-up stuff in the dialogue, and narrative arcs and character development aren’t the point.
