They are shown into a room by the firm’s offbeat secretary (Natalia Verbeke), where they are informed that they shall all partake in a bizarre test known as the Grönholm Method. They are also told that one of the seven applicants is in fact the interviewer, who shall remain anonymous to the other six. Throughout a series of uncanny questions, what-if scenarios and increasingly bizarre tests, the applicants are dismissed one by one. The tension increases as people begin to take matters personally, and things get carried out of hand as competition becomes sharper to win the position. --© Palm Pictures [More]

The movie doesn't trust that an illuminating comedy of pathetic people can be entertaining for long, so it sprinkles some hormones on the proceedings.

The Method is a funny film that touches on a corporation’s responsibility to society, the price of ambition and the persistence of workplace sexism.

Smartly and seamlessly blending a cast of talented Argentine and Spanish thesps, Pineyro seems to be testing how much cinema he can derive from a restricted space.

...The Method is a tartly performed, compulsively watchable glass-tower And Then There Were None, in which the only blood that gets spilt comes from places that hurt the most: pride and ego.

Too clever by half, the plot contrivances deliver flippant satisfactions, and the agile performances keep the twists compelling, if less than credible.
