hooooooooly shit
This is the stuff of nightmares right here: white suburban cattle refusing to adhere to the banal conformity of their lives and morphing into otherworldly beings in the process through over-documentation of their silly little lives. I find the transphobia allegations a strange way to view a piece that is so uninterested in exploring the subject at face value, as it’s more concerned with something far less simplistic—actors who can’t help but disown the parts of their lives…
Probably the biggest fuck you in 21st century populist cinema? What other way to follow up one of the most widely divisive and discussed blockbusters ever made with a $200m courtroom musical that straight up insults the people who hated the original and the people who loved it all the same.

It’s wonderful to see big budget sci-fi from someone who knows how to make real movies!

One of those cinematic experiences to for a lifetime. You could seriously talk about this for days on end but why do that when you could just watch it and feel everything? Every time I see this I fall into complete euphoria and feel the need to appreciate my mere existence. What a picture.
I had chills so many times. Easily one of the best action movies of the century and delivers on every single thing it needs to. This movie is what we as children imagine when we play with our toys and fake airplanes. Tom Cruise is an absolute legend for this shit, no shit CGI moments, no memberberries, no BULLSHIT. Everything that cinema needs today.
