Nah thats fair I definitely feel that especially with how chapters were split up

say them all

Yeah for sure, chapter split ups always seem to have an effect on pacing cause they just remind you you have more movie left. I definitely felt jarred when I first saw “All At Once” but then right after I was like ok we’re on to something else awesome now

Damn, you hit me with Speed Racer The Master and Night of the Hunter praise. Good play, Elric. Good play. By didn’t connect, do you mean it felt inauthentic, or not true to Life?

Don't ... worry... Evelyn...it's....mmm, organic.

Like I'm just not the target audience for those themes so it didn't work any sort of magic on me. Obviously it was authentic for a s***load of people and I can understand why.

how many years y'all gonna do this

like if the criticism is constructive people don't care the only reason it hasn't gone well in the past is personal attacks, attacking the director personally, saying anyone who likes something is wrong. If people have constructive reasons like pacing, third act or articulating something of value no one cares.

If something just called trash and bad every single post or quoting everyone who likes it with "nah its trash omg it shouldn't exist" people care. But if you didn't connect with this movie 100% no one should be mad at you for it and if they are I will be the first to say "chill".

Calling it a disney movie wild to me though but it is what it is

This and RRR are the two movies where I don’t get the hype. Both enjoyable movies I guess but definitely didn’t view either as masterpieces. And like I said with this movie that dragging 3rd act is what killed it for me.

And usually I’m all in on the hyped up movies. I’ve given enough praise to Parasite on this site and was expecting this to be the same due to all the comparisons. But nope, not at all.

RRR is amazing whenever it’s an action scene. But there’s too many cliches in the actual plot for it to be an amazing experience from beginning to end.

I think this movie was great going in low hype or no hype. Like yes it had good reviews when I saw it and some love but critics and I sometimes don't 100%. Like Marcel the snail had crazy good reviews but I was kind of zoned out of it

Lol feel that was impossible with this movie. Everywhere I looked everyone was going crazy over this movie.

And I’m optimistic, I want movies that I watch to turn out great and enjoyable. I don’t do the whole “hate watch” thing

nah when it was just reviewers and early previews yes they were hyped but they kind of kept it vague on the why. Going into the movie the trailers were good at keeping most of it a surprise

watching rn and this s*** is ass

Really puttin the L in your name today, huh?

I dont see whats special about this. I feel like ive seen this message done in many other movies already

honestly couldn't give af about the first act tbh

Not looking good for you

Just be a rock

Y’all keep saying you’ve seen this done before better or done before and all I ask is direct me to those films

eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
being john malkovich

These are some what fair but its been 20 years since both. It isn't fully like either one listed. S*** I think of like The Science of Sleep perhaps. Definitely a long the line of Gondry. Its surreal but its a family American tale. I get not liking it. I think it was best in theaters personally but if you got to go 20 years back to think of movies like it then it definitely belongs
