not good, sadly. Just very tedious, and doesn't amount to much. It's messy. Wilde could be a good director, but this ain't it
yeah, im amazed on how well she frames and understands movement but still her only two movies so far havent been good.

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.

thats not a fair question

Most great directors have amazing dps and editors and you never doubt them. Even if Wilde doesnt do shit, she got the chops to get those guys to work with her, and thats a talent.

But again, she seems very passionate and talented, and the people might doubt her because she comes from acting. It happened before.

I am surprised both of her movies arent good.

i didnt say it was sexist.

Im thinking most people dont believe she is actually good because she is or was an actress.

Those examples you put out from the movie...i truly hate Django Unchained, and i dont believe for a second QT is not talented or made those choices.

John Wick. Some stupid stuff in the last stretch, but enjoyable enough.

2.85/4

Watched about 10 minutes of Bodies, Bodies, Bodies before deciding that I hated everyone in it and everything about it, so watched Lou instead
