This was very good. Really well crafted.
I'm against overt exposition but it almost felt like there was a scene missing right before the big "lunch" scene at the park.
Put Wincott in everything.
I need to see it again.

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.

I must admit the concept of "horse pilots" briefly crossed my mind early on. Perhaps a version of this better suited for an episode of Key & Peele.
This'll sound trite but some of my favorite movies are the ones that stick with you well after leaving the theater; occupying every spare second of brainpower one has to analyze what happened and what the film is trying to say. This certainly qualifies. I can't wait to see it again.

couldn’t tell you the last movie I saw in theaters. Not sure that I’ve ever watched one in imax. I might be tempted to check this out given all the support here.

Guys. I got there a little early, sat in the seat, and right after the previews I started to fade. I should have just left and asked for a refund, but I tried and after about 20 minutes I was out. Slept about 30 minutes and got up and left. I suck.
