Goodtime is better than Uncut Gems imo.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Re: What movies are you watching?
I maybe don't mean it, but Pattinson is truly astonishing in that movie. It's definitely worth a watch. I need to get into their earlier work, I've heard good things about Heaven Knows What.tragabigzanda wrote:Whoa. Haven’t watched Goodtime yet but that’s compelling.

Re: What movies are you watching?
lady bird...the performances were outstanding...ronan is incredible, probably my favorite actress working today...i've always really enjoyed hedges, and jonah hill's sister's character was super endearing
my only complaint is some of the story elements could have been developed a little more

Her Smell.
Moss was outstanding. Third feature i saw with her in the lead (Invisible Man and Shirley the others) and the only reason to watch this one is her. Besides that, its another story about a poor fucked up rock star. Im kinda bored with this view. It didnt help that the movie seemed so fucking long.

Bening was great but the beat-you-over-the-head HISTORY IS HAPPENING was too corny for my tastes.

Re: What movies are you watching?
I've been holding off on watching this for a while because it looks similar enough to Vox Lux. The only thing that interests me is Moss.VinylGuy wrote:Her Smell.

Re: What movies are you watching?
It's alright. The movie does a good job at creating an oppressive, claustrophobic atmosphere during the first half. The dialogue is often silly but that's Alex Ross Perry for you

Re: What movies are you watching?
Moss is, by far, the best thing about this movie. This story has been told way too many times at this point, and with more interesting ideas. But Moss is a tour de force, she is truly incredible.Mickey wrote:I've been holding off on watching this for a while because it looks similar enough to Vox Lux.

I forgot about Vox Lux, have you seen it?

Re: What movies are you watching?
Yeah, it was okay. Natalie Portman was really good but some of the pacing was kind of dull and the ending didn't really fit. I wouldn't watch it again.VinylGuy wrote:Moss is, by far, the best thing about this movie. This story has been told way too many times at this point, and with more interesting ideas.
