Wonderfully scripted. It keeps you on the edge and uncomfortable throughout. All the elements that you feel as inconsistent plot holes are washed away by the twist in the pre-climax. The final twist adds to the entertainment value but doesn't contribute much to the plot. You will be forced to play back the whole movie in your mind to cross check plot inconsistencies and you won't find any (at least not any significant ones).
The normalization of domestic violence, alcoholism (and induced altered states of mind), adultery etc. are all quite disturbing and makes this movie unfit for seekers of mild entertainment. It is a heavy movie and doesn't leave you with a "pleasant" feeling. It's only for those who like to obsess over storylines and plots.
The performances are good by most standards but I feel the movie would have been a better one if we had a more capable cast.Overall, it's a great movie for those who enjoy tight well written scripts.
