C. I. N.E .M. A
lol you can get off what makes something a masterpiece without spoiling in a tweet because “ this really could happen “ at a time where so many around the world deal with American imperialism isn’t selling me
If you blocked stop begging for attention. I’m not trying to feel the thread with that live your best life man be easy
Better for sure but still all kind of vague I’m not trying to be spoiled so avoiding most full reviews
Wonder how this is gonna play to the general populace, especially since it’s an election year.
Feel the whole movie is playing off the election year and “ omg we are really so close to a civil war “ which feels in my opinion cringe but that’s just my take . I like more surreal ideas than this from garland or supernatural twist . Americans are too privileged to see a movie and be like “ this is a warning “
Lol crazy reaction
So he just going to leave out Men?

crazy comparison

Apocalypse Now? Get the f***... What
Welp, Alex Garland’s about 4 for 4 as I see it. Definitely one of his best and both his most accessible yet maybe his darkest (in my opinion at least). There’s this bleak undercurrent that doesn’t really let up for much of it (a decent amount of scenes that are just straight up harrowing to witness), but even with that it still remains a pretty captivating watch. For apparently being A24’s first blockbuster movie, I’d say this film is honestly the furthest thing from it from top to bottom. The action sequences are less show-y/cinematic and more akin to just capturing a stark reality in a certain point in time (especially with the very strong sound design making each rattling of gunfire feel legitimately as if you yourself were caught in a firefight). Could’ve potentially used a bit more scenes filling in the spaces for more character development, but that aside I enjoyed it greatly. 9/10
lol any time reviewers all use generic s*** like masterpiece rather than describe the why I get annoyed
Definitely not a masterpiece in my opinion (there are parts where it does drag a bit, mainly in the middle), but I can see why folks feel that it is
Also, Nick Offerman as the President ends up looking deadass like Steve Bannon at the end and that was honestly pretty funny to me (maybe intentional on Garland's part, who knows)
I know this doesn’t look like typical Garland but get in here @FlyHiii
Garland so hit or miss, idk what to expect of this at all but I will check it eventually. Have u seen this?
