Lisa Schwarzbaum is a film critic for EW
Here's the shocking premise: Chad (Aaron Eckhart), a lethal white-collar company man, convinces his buddy Howard (Matt Malloy) that the two of them should flatter a random woman with attention, win her heart, and then dump her, hard. The wellspring of rage and cruelty first-time writer-director Neil LaBute taps into in this stunning, unsettling, beautifully written drama is so bottomless and fresh that admiration washes away all affront at this ballsy depiction of man's inhumanity to woman, and man.
