I Don’t Understand You 2025 Movie Review
Dom and Cole, a wealthy Los Angeles couple, embark on a picturesque Italian getaway. Their plans unravel when they get lost en route to a special dinner arranged by a family friend, Daniele, at a rural farm restaurant. Stranded in a downpour with no cell service and minimal Italian language skills, their insecurities and relationship tensions surface. What begins as a fish-out-of-water comedy takes a sharp turn into dark, absurd territory, with misunderstandings leading to accidental violence and a rising body count. The film blends slapstick humor with horror elements, exploring themes of parenthood, queer identity, and cultural disconnection.
The film has received mixed reviews, with a 56% score on Rotten Tomatoes (based on 43 critics) and a Metacritic score of 57/100 (based on 11 critics), indicating “mixed or average” reviews. Critics praise the chemistry between Kroll and Rannells, whose comedic timing and endearing rapport carry the film through its tonal shifts. Alison Foreman of IndieWire gave it an A-, calling it “outrageously snappy and unapologetically fun” for fans of queer romance and horror-comedy. Similarly, posts on X highlight the film’s cleverness and chaotic humor, with one user describing it as “dynamite” for its portrayal of cultural disorientation.
