*me once again pressing play on a film I know is going to be shit just to get in my Oscar Isaac screen time* sighs here we go again

Sometimes it‘s good when everybody tells you a Thing Is Bad because then when you watch it, it will likely not be As Bad as you‘ve been told.

DO NOT WATCH THIS ON THE ETIHAD IN-FLIGHT ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME EVER MY BESTIE SAW ME CRY I AM A WEAK BITCH AND WILL ALWAYS SOB AT MOTHER-CHILD LOVE

so her acting was like… BAD bad

Honestly more like 3 Stars but 10/10 in-flight movie so she gets another half as a treat

File under „final shots that ruined my life“

Not over the fact they filmed the exteriors of the shoddiest, most run-down, roughest, working-class district in my dad‘s hometown, Duisburg you will always be famous.

Gale really fast-tracked the nice guy to incel pipeline huh

I think we as a society have forgotten how drastically lives were changed when The Hanging Tree dropped. Jaws dropped. Children wept. It was all anybody listened to for six months.

Five stars because it‘s the only middle film ever that‘s the best one of the series and that is absolutely not because of Finnick no no no no

Nothing will ever be as iconic as J-Law‘s „PEEeeEeEETAAHHH!“ I fear

Unfortunately, he’s just like me fr

Ryan Gosling the OG Rodent Man

How my flatmate looks at me when I find her looking for snacks in the kitchen at night

Man, when he washes his little PAWS 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Nobody ever cooked harder than Hans did on this soundtrack

Could have spared me about 40 minutes of the main character being boring as fuuuuuuuuuu

In case anybody wants to know what my job is, I‘m the person that corrects Emily Blunt‘s „four hours“ to „three hours and fifty-seven minutes“.

Screenplay sponsored by ChatGPT

I‘m not American enough to understand half of what was going on here but was thrilled by the amount of toxic people

Okay, listen, I know what you’re gonna say… I am aware that I‘m logging this for the third time in, like, six weeks, but this was being screened at my cinema and if one of your top four returns to the big screen, you‘re legally and morally obliged to get your arse in a seat.

In addition to that… I just lost my job a few weeks back. One day after my last viewing of this, in fact. I‘m sure the actual cinema atmosphere had a lot to do with this hitting me 10x harder than it does anyway (I cried, which happens a lot in general but had never happened during this film before), but also… when you‘re facing that existential dread of not earning a decent wage and also having just had the rug and the future you‘d planted on it pulled out from under your feet, a bleakly funny film that get‘s sadder and sadder the more you rewatch it about a grieving, depressed, homeless, (possibly?) bisexual, failing artist whose ego has outgrown him so he doesn’t have to cope with all of that is just… it hits different, y‘know?

Anyway, all the shit life throws at you is maybe worth it if it means you get to see something like this once in a while.

Delulu girl summer

There‘s a scene where Kieran Culkin sees a dog walk past and goes „doggy“ and honestly I‘ve never felt more represented in a film ever

🗣️HE‘S🗣️NOT🗣️JUST🗣️A🗣️STEPDAD🗣️HE‘S🗣️THE🗣️DAD🗣️WHO🗣️STEPPED🗣️UP🗣️

My mum often tells me about a time in late 1997 after her and dad brought little baby-me home from the hospital. They were exhausted as you would be with a literal infant in a tiny flat barely getting by financially and my dad would put on Perfect Day by Lou Reed and they‘d dance along to it rocking me in their arms. 

Safe to say I cried buckets watching this film.

These films are even funnier to me personally because my brother is called Paul and he‘s also dense as a rock.

Wanna run that training course with the homies

I was gonna give this four and a half and then I read about how batshit insane production was and now I cannot believe this is a film that exists, what a time to be alive

Nothing but respect for my Indiana Jones

This was probably much better than this rating but I do not have a stomach for body horror so I spent half this film looking out of the window in search for things worth living for.

Not the film for you if you are prone to fringe envy.

I was also worried about the donkey

Just watched Adam Driver meow at the cat on loop for five minutes.

😫 what excellent 🤌🏻 boiled potatoes 🥔 it has been 😮‍💨 many years ⏱️ since I have had🥵 such an exemplary 😩😩🤑 vegetable 🤯🤯

I would like to thank Dean Cundey for every shot that was framed in such a way that made Jude Law flirt with me personally

Few people know this, but they built a replica of that pointy tower in the real Paris to honour this masterpiece of a film, it‘s called the Eiffel Tower or something.

Not my favvvvouriiiteee "humans have always just been humans" trope getting its own little speech in that museum scene 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

The first film since the seminal masterpiece Ratatouille that featured an acceptable number of rats.

I know this is an important story and all that jazz but it was also a very boring story and my friend fell asleep

God spoke to me through this film

Falling into 2025 like Art fell into Patrick‘s arms

Loved watching Bob Dylan wrestle Elvis, five stars.

You dream in a language I can’t understand 

I for once don’t have anything funny to say because this film violently reminded me of how much being a second generation immigrant with strong ties to my mother‘s culture has shaped me as a person by cursing me with infinite homesickness and alienation.

Also that one cut towards the end made me almost throw up from crying.

HOW did they make the story of two of the world‘s top female athletes about men?

I‘d let Oscar Isaac rearrange my guts any day

The way feminism left my body when Hugh Grant groped her arse in that lift.
