It's not going to end well

With a great cast of Jodie Foster, John C Reilly, Kate Winslet and Christoph Waltz and directed by Roman Polanski. Carnage has, in part, the feel of a modern take on Abigail's Party.

After looking around the interweb, I have discovered that it is based on a French play, God of Carnage.

A showdown between two kids about eleven, in a local playground. Swollen lips, broken teeth... Now the parents of the “victim” have invited the parents of the “bully” to their apartment to sort it out.

Cordial banter gradually develops a razor-sharp edge as all four parents reveal their laughable contradictions and grotesque prejudices. None of them will escape the ensuing carnage.
