The film’s take on power and trauma is deeper than the usual pop feminism.

Fennell and Mulligan deliver what they promise, from the design and performances to the tension and provocation.

Mulligan's withering disdain is a thing of beauty.

Promising Young Woman is very much of its time – it’s scared of growing up. In the narrow worldview of this film, there is no happiness in adulthood, there is no sexuality that is liberating for a woman.
