Which brings us back to Kidman, who really IS sensational here.

Noah Baumbach has followed up his acclaimed 2005 breakthrough "The Squid and the Whale" with another wryly observed, giddily cringe-inducing, bracingly original winner.
Frequently brilliant, finally baffling film.
One of the dark pleasures of "Margot" is watching Kidman and Leigh inhabit these two roles with a fierce passion.
So it goes with the family in this movie. All of its members are engaged in a mutual process of shooting one another down. Watching Margot at the Wedding is like slowing for a gaper's block.
This study of a disastrous reunion of two sisters feels more like a collection of arresting scenes than a fully conceived and developed drama.
Watching this movie feels a bit like being trapped on a weekend holiday with an unpredictable and seriously unhappy group of people.

… the least comforting movie of 2007.
