Ivy et Theo forment un couple parfait à qui tout réussit : des carrières couronnées de succès, un mariage épanoui, des enfants formidables… Mais sous les apparences de cette vie idéale, une tempête se prépare… Alors que la carrière de Theo s’écroule et que celle d’Ivy décolle, leurs ressentiments et leur rivalité jusque-là étouffés vont bientôt exploser.

Reviewers say ‘The Roses’ is a polarizing dark comedy that offers sharp humor with some tonal inconsistencies. Many praise the movie for its biting satire and the exceptional chemistry between Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman, who both deliver standout performances. The supporting cast, including Andy Samberg and Kate McKinnon, are also highlighted for adding depth to the film’s exploration of modern relationships and societal pressures. Others, however, feel the film fails to match the dark comedy of the 1989 original, finding its pacing and tone to be erratic. Reviewers enjoy the film’s British wit and modern take on classic themes, but its mixed reception suggests that while it has moments of brilliance, it may not fully satisfy all viewers.
