The Square keeps viewers off-balance, taking on race and xenophobia, gender and abuse, poverty and class privilege with a sideways Nordic tone that is both hilarious and serious.January 08, 2018
Presenting itself as a balanced satire of everyone, Östlund's "I hate all people equally" take is never satisfying.November 09, 2017
It's funny throughout - not to say that it inspires many laughs, but it's full of irony and absurdity and is very smart.December 30, 2017
Brilliant satire on the art world focused on the pretentious, Whitney Museum milieu in Sweden. A morality tale mixed with sketches that put SNL to shame.November 02, 2017
It's laugh-out-loud funny and occasionally just plain silly. But it asks a serious question that seems more urgent with every passing day: "How much inhumanity does it take before we access your humanity?"November 17, 2017

An examination of social context, elitism, cultural bubbles and more, The Square is - to put it precisely - absolutely bonkers. But purposefully bonkers.January 03, 2018
The movie makes the audience laugh while looking covering its eyes in embarrassment for the characters. [Full review in Portuguese.]
