Pearl Review - Mia Goth's Twisted Delusions of Grandeur
While subverting the conventions of Golden Age cinema with the characteristics of a slasher, Pearl studies the delusions of grandeur inspired by the movies.

Vera has the perfect marriage. She's a caring housewife and excels at her primary task—pleasing and providing a comfortable life for her husband, Boris, a musician and conservatory teacher. Vera might have lived a somewhat dull and stable life if not for her younger sister, Nika, who unexpectedly and unceremoniously intruded on their family idyll. Vera isn't happy about the unexpected visit, and for good reason. She and her sister became strangers after Nika "stole" Vera's happiness, stealing her sister's fiancé, her first "school love." Now Nika has separated from her husband and is once again "actively searching." And, as several years ago, Nika's choice once again falls on Vera's chosen one. It seems history is repeating itself. But this time, Vera isn't giving up. She will try to reclaim her "stolen happiness."

Apparently, nothing's ever enough. It has its flaws, but does that warrant the amount of criticism 'Barbie' is subject to?
