Perfect movie

I know it’s a basic film bro choice but it’s pretty excellent idk

Love how DeYoung straddles the line between ridiculous cringe comedy and the nightmarish decent into self hatred. I need another season of I Think You Should Leave soon

An underrated Coens film!

Much like the book, this is just stupid and fun, which is ok! We need stupid fun slashers!

The Funkytown needle drop destroys me every time

NEED to do this with boygenius

I would love to see Coogler direct a genuine musical. His understanding of music and its power here is truly immaculate.

A decent movie that doesn’t quite reach its full potential. I wish it delivered on the themes that it attempts to reckon with. Good performances though!

Exceptional. Need a rewatch asap

I’m sorry but it has Lily Gladstone and Yuh Jung Youn, of course I liked it

:(

Not the point of the movie but I NEED to visit the French countryside asap

The introspective nature of the novel gets lost in translation a little bit, but all in all I had a very pleasant time. Love that dog so so much! When Ann Dowd showed up, I gasped and cheered at the screen

I really dig the concept, Soderbergh’s direction, and the camerawork. I wish that the characters felt a bit more fleshed out and less archetypal. Maybe that’s part of the intention, given that we are introduced to this family through the lens of a presence with no prior knowledge of the family, but I didn’t feel that any of the characters were complex enough to warrant caring about them.

Absolutely gorgeous. NEED to see this on a big screen so bad. I have now seen 2 Wim Wenders movies (this and Perfect Days) and both are masterpieces

Definitely fun at times but this is a deeply lackluster entry in the Eat the Rich genre.

Great date night movie! Blanchett and Fassbender are excellent and I have missed seeing Naomie Harris on screen.

Very solid as a film, excellent as a debut film. As usual, s devours. It’s interesting to see inklings of what the Coens would later perfect in subsequent films.

Very fun! As far as extremely obvious social satire goes, I would take this over an Adam McKay movie any day. Hopefully it doesn’t take 4 1/2 years to see another film from Bong.

I love you Mystery Man <3

Finished season 1, about to start season 2

Gripping and timely, but ultimately sort of shallow? Although that criticism feels a bit unfair given the 14 minute runtime.

The way that these officers generate lies in real time to justify their horrific actions is revolting. This should be essential viewing

Maybe I’m just still grieving, but I saw a lot of Lynchian influence this time around. It goes without saying but I’m fully seated for whatever Coralie does next.

Cillian’s career best performance imo. I love that it takes a good bit of time for the emotional gut punch to set in. A film that does not meet its audience where they’re at, and it’s better for it

Quite literally the blueprint for what a romcom should be. Perfect movie!

I have a few complaints and critiques, but ultimately, this is everything that I wanted out of a movie about a toy monkey that kills people. I had a good time!

I really wanted to like this but it’s a pretty colossal mess. Schrader has lots of interesting ideas but none of it comes together in a cohesive way.

Takes a while to really get going but once it does, it’s just sheer gripping and propulsive filmmaking. Good movie!

Sorry moss, eraserhead baby is not cute but I still love him

Pretty astounding work from everyone involved. Fernanda Torres is truly excellent and I would be thrilled to see her win the Oscar. I will definitely rewatch this and probably have way more thoughts on it but I’m feeling pretty floored.

Wish I never watched the second trailer. Very fun and twisty, but it certainly falls short of the exhilaration I experienced during Barbarian.

Ultimately glad that this film was Best Picture nominated but Aunjanue Ellis Taylor and RaMell Ross were robbed

Upon rewatch I think Guy Pearce might give my favorite performance?

Idk what didn’t click the first time I watched this but it really worked for me this time around. RIP king, we miss you :’(
