It is such an ugly, hateful movie. It wants to be shocking in the way a middle schooler tries to be shocking.
Only God Forgives is the hardest ive ever backflipped on a film. Absolutely hated it on first watch, later I talked to someone who told me I watched it wrong, went back and loved it on a second viewing. It was 10years ago and I dont remember what their take was, I wonder how id feel if I watched it again now.
-The reveal that the “tapes” are swinger sex tapes -The closing credits of the dog society with the Dio song playing over them -The hard cut to Emma Stone dancing Three of the funniest moments in film this year
This was top 10 of the year for me, and I still think it's a horror film just as much as it is an absurdist comedy.
I just watched this. There were amazing moments and the whole thing kept me really engaged, but goddamn, did they miss the landing with all 3 of the parts. I don't really even know why, but I just felt disappointed after each one.
