How is the world wrong about this movie?

From Andras: As a comedy, this film isn’t an easy one to laugh with but once you get its wavelength…once you know laughter is permissible…it only gets darker. Imagine Polanski doing an episode of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” with a young Ryan Gosling and then decide if it’s something you want to see, or notsee.
