Review of Promising Young Woman (2020) by Wendy Ide for The Observer (UK) — 20 Apr 2021

Were it not for Carey Mulligan’s Cassandra, an avenging angel in bubblegum-pink lip gloss, the picture may well have toppled off its stripper heels long before it got to stomp into its divisive shocker of a final act.
