Folie Deux review

A hotel is not a home

Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

A supposed dream home becomes a nightmare when an affluent family’s plans to convert historic Gray’s Court into a boutique hotel are broadsided by 2008’s economic meltdown.

Lacking gobsmacking depictions of excess and natural born grotesques, Kim Hopkins’ doc struggles to match The Queen Of Versailles for sheer entertainment. It also never quite fulfils its ambitions of presenting a Death Of A Salesman -calibre tragedy (despite shamelessly suggesting otherwise).

Still, the family feud about a shared courtyard may be the year’s finest example of fiddling while Rome burns.
