A modern-day reimagining of 1989's The War of the Roses (and the 1981 novel of the same name that movie was based on), The Roses centres on picture-perfect couple Ivy (Colman) and Theo (Cumberbatch). They have a loving marriage, two adorable children and with Ivy choosing to largely be a stay-at-home mother, Theo is excelling in his career.

The Roses', a new take on the 1981 book and subsequent 1989 film version that reimagines this marital slugfest. Olivia Colman, Benedict Cumberbatch.

Divorce is a misery, and so too is The Roses. This second cinematic version of Warren Adler’s 1981 novel The War of the Roses, like its 1989 predecessor starring Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner, fails to find anything funny about a couple whose union devolves into all-out war.
