A Criada

...doesn’t quite get as silly and tawdry as it needs to, but it immensely improves in the film’s last third when Sweeney comes out to play.

Sydney Sweeney’s completely absurd psycho-thriller is a scream.

...this is an innocent holiday treat.

...another excellent, wicked drama about the interplay between a rich woman and the woman she hires, but is now darker and more aggressive.

...a suitably tawdry staredown between Amanda Seyfried and Sydney Sweeney.
