Charlie Kaufman, for all his undeniable genius and passion, has never been one to make easy-to-follow films, but I'm Thinking of Ending Things might just be his most challenging movie to date. But therein lies Kaufman's power as a filmmaker, making movies that force his audience to really think, and giving them numerous rewards for their troubles.

Yes, his adaptation of Iain Reed's novel is a hard one to digest, but for those willing to take the journey and pay attention it's easily one of the most accomplished films of 2020.

Jessie Buckley is on top form as a young woman questioning her love life and her reality, and Jesse Plemons proves his stripes as one of the most interesting actors in Hollywood with a performance that defies every expectation.

Kaufman has been one of cinema's most daring and innovative filmmakers for over two decades now, and with his latest drama proves he's going to be around for a lot longer.
