Others praised the performances of leading stars Nicole and Matthew, with one person writing: "Holland is not at all what you expect... It's a great slow burn of a thriller that takes a sharp and exciting turn for the third act. Nicole Kidman & Matthew Macfadyen are incredible, to no one's surprise. I had a blast!"

Ahead of the film's release, director Mimi said she considered Nicole's role in 1995's To Die For as a source of inspiration for Holland's Nancy.
"She plays this incredibly undertone comedic lead and I knew she had that in her, but maybe just hasn't, you know, been in a role [like that] in a while," she told PEOPLE. "She is so funny, so deeply funny."
Holland is available to stream on Prime Video.
