Tried way too hard to be edgy and shocking

First half an hour or so was decent, but once they get to Saltburn and shit like the bathtub scene started happening I was just rolling my eyes. This reminded me of Babylon where they had a bunch of explicit scenes that served no purpose other than to be shocking. Not to mention it just got repetitive and boring in the second half. Don't waste your time.

Just watched the movie and totally agree. This movie seems to be made for college students who have never seen nakedness/weird sex before and pretends like there haven't been countless movies before that have been just as or even more graphic in their depictions of sex, particularly homosexuality.
