Despite its stellar cast, though, Saltburn received mixed reviews. Some viewers complained that its social commentary was too shallow, while others were completely won over.
On Rotten Tomatoes viewer shared: “The more I think about this film – the more it grows on me.
“Saltburn is as captivating as it is stunning with stand out performances by both Barry Keoghan and Rosamund Pike. The direction is beautifully done, with a twist ending oh so well earned.”
Another reviewer gushed: “Omg!!! I love this film watched it ten times I think it’s brilliant all the cast do an amazing job it’s cringe in places but it’s a brilliant sick thriller”
But a third dissapointed viewer slammed: “This movie is all art and no heart…and very vapid pseudo deep art at that…”
While a fourth defended: “I’ve seen this so many times now. I don’t care what anyone has to say, I love it.”
