This was terrible. One of the most tedious, juvenile movies I've seen in years.Mickey wrote:For instance tonight I started Everything Everywhere All At Once, which is a significantly better movie in terms of concept and production and just as bad of an experience.
Going to watch the final hour tomorrow just to see how it ends but so far this feels like a comic book movie for people with MFA degrees.

Bullet Train.
Well, thats another tedious juvenile movie....really who understand this movie? At least it was compelling enough to be seated on the cinema.

I don't know when stylish, sharply written indie comic book movies became bad, but we've always got Marvel

What a great movie.
I saw Hereditary when it came out and I liked it OK, but this was much better.

You may still enjoy it, we have pretty different taste in film. What I watched this weekend was not "sharply written," though. It was a pretty flimsy plot rife with logical inconsistencies and lowest common denominator humor.Anders wrote:I want to see this movie, from before your review.

Re: What movies are you watching?
Hereditary is the kind of movie that I usually hate (super duper serious and dour horror that begs ppl to talk about whatever stupid obvious thing the fantastical element is a metaphor for) but I like it a lot. Not sure if I would put it above Midsommar though

Both are great but Midsommar is better, I think.

Re: What movies are you watching?
yeah, not sure which is one is better. Midsommar might be the best movie while Hereditary have more reply value maybe?
And damn two moments
-The car moment was a huge wtf.
-The son watching the fire with Toni Collette waiting in the dark in the fucking ceiling.

Thought Hereditary was really poor. Not seen Midsommar yet, but I’ve got it.

I thought the last half hour of Hereditary was terrible.

Hereditary is funnier than Midsommar (unintentionally) and for that I prefer it.

Great performance from the daughter though, she makes us care about the completely underwritten deal her character is going through
