    I really enjoyed the performances but this might have been a little too weird for my tastes. I like that it got crazy though

    you want to give up the taste of cherries? Prestigious

    absolutely loved this. a lot of people in my circle didn't care for it so i had somewhat tepid expectations but its been on my mind ever since i left the theater yesterday

    All his films are at least partly comedies.

    This was fun, liked it a lot more than Poor Things. Yorg works best putting characters in crazy confined spaces and closed systems then letting the power dynamics loose. As soon as he mentioned he had bees I knew someone was getting wickerman'd

  13. emma so good in this. the way her tone totally changes when she questions him about the other bodies was great. plemmons predictably great and loved aidan delbis' performance, heartbreaking last scene

    overall probably in the middle of his filmography for me but best of the recent run of the last three

    I never would have expected a Green Day song in a Lanthimos film.

    Because Halkias is balding and overweight he becomes Plemmons' former babysitter despite being younger than him.

  19. There was some weird age stuff in this. They also show in the flashback to Emma stone discussing plemons’ mother’s condition with him her clearly being in the CEO role and him looking like a teen despite the actors being the same age

    Lanthimos finally went the Lars von Trier route and killed everyone.

    they did say the character was in her mid 40's though so I think she was meant to be older than Emma actually is.
     
  22. She aged well on account of all of the adrenochrome harvested, obviously
     
  23. Sure it seems like that’s the case for her and plemons’ character is seemingly mid 20s, which feels a little odd lol

    The worst offender will always be Grease. Actors approaching middle age playing high schoolers.

  25. Right but with that it’s all actors too old playing characters the same age so it’s at least consistent
