Priscilla.

Bland, inoffensive ,boring. Seems Sofia Coppola check out a long time ago. Jacob Elodi is not good.

Only good thing are the art and photography but cmon what a very awful and boring film.

I'm possibly watching this tonight after watching Get Santa with the kids

It felt like a tv movie from the 90s.

I thought Priscilla was not quite great, but very good. Somewhat half-baked maybe? But I enjoyed it quite a bit. Enjoyable and uncomfortable at the same time.

I really liked Jacob Elordi’s version of Elvis. Both leads were great.

[VinylGuy]

I expected a lot more. Probably my fault since Sofia Coppola has been on autopilot for a long time and her last movie was just horrible but I still had them

Argo in shambles

[The Argonaut]

I stand strong. Priscilla currently sitting at #2 on my year-end list, though I have quite a few still to see.

I have tickets for Iron Claw and Ferrari later this week already. Hoping to catch Monster and Poor Things this week, too

What's #1? Oppie?

[The Argonaut]

I'm willing to hear the argument that Priscilla is boring. But I found all those quiet, slow moments to be full of import, highly loaded. Everything is a performance, and we get to watch her practice these little affectations, practicing to pretend to be this person Elvis has invented.
I thought Elordi was great, too.

Stay tuned!

I might have been too harsh with the boring thing. Its a perfectly watchable movie. Its blandness makes it a saccharine oriented version of this story.
There is a better movie somewhere but not here.

Jacob Elordi ´s Elvis is basically his Nate character fro Euphoria imitating Elvis.

Merry Little Batman

Not only do I consider it as a Christmas movie, but as a new Christmas Classic. Very funny and sweet. Fun for the whole fam. Also just a straight-up great Batman movie. Great voice cast. David Hornsby's Joker is one for the ages. The kinds of laughs that land for both kids and adults. Some wonderful fart humour.

[The Argonaut]

I did not really enjoy Poor Things. It won me over a bit by the end, but it was an uphill battle after a nearly insufferable first hour or so. The main problem may be that I seem to find Emma Stone entirely without charm, perhaps a personal failing.

But it does also kind of make me sad to see Yorgos Lanthimos basically doing Jean-Pierre Jeunet, especially since I don't really like Jean-Pierre Jeunet.

I had to look this one up. I think it will be getting added to our Christmas watch list for this year

Leave the world behind

new one on netflix. Great cast! Ending was abrupt. I wouldnt tell anyone they should rush to see it but if you like hte actors involved and enjoy watching good actors do their thing then sure go for it.

I'm liking it less as I think about it. "It won me over a bit by the end" because the bar was so low. I wasn't tearing my hair out and thinking of leaving at the end, but that's about it. But I'm having trouble identifying even in the end anything that I appreciated or found insightful or interesting or anything. It's mostly just shallow and silly
It's not for me
