It is a superbly shot, viscerally acted ensemble drama.

Surprising, disconcerting and droll, this Italo-Swiss co-prod packs the grotesquerie of an Ulrich Seidl film minus the sex, plus vivid acting. Its weakest link is on the narrative level.

Even if the impact Bad Tales creates ultimately feels cheap, there’s no denying the force and expert construction of it.
