It's just a clumsy telling of the story with an annoying metatextual twist, very plain and artless on a visual level, with at least three highly questionable casting choices. It has its charms, I like Saoirsie Ronan a lot, but the 94 adaptation is better in every way.

From that list watch The Owners. I don't really know what it is.
What are the three highly questionable casting choices? Bob Odenkirk is one. Meryl Streep, too. Who is three?

Ad Astra was significantly duller than Little Women.

every single movie centering men, ever, is about "what it's like to be men"

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.

She's going to decide between it and Ad Astra. I told her Knives Out is like a murder mystery I guess so chances are she's going to pick it over "space".

I didn't like Ad Astra when I first saw it, but maybe I'll watch it again to be sure.

So are you telling me the Oscars actually lauded Little Women for no good reason at all?
