    Yeaaaaaaaah this is pretty incredible. Probably a little over hyped but probably the best movie of the year so far.

    Trailer is problematic in having most of the major impactful dialogue lol

    Saw this last night. Much more conventional than I was anticipating, but the script and the three key performances are so good. The final 15 minutes or so are really effective and probably the most edge of my seat stuff I’ve seen all year.

  17. Yeah I agree, this was quite a bit more like, linear (?) than I thought it would be but I still really liked it and the final scene made me cry. The splashes of humor were really effective and the laughter they caused almost felt more nervous than anything, which speaks to how well this movie did tension. I also loved how the calm the camera work was, really not a ton of movement and almost always landing on some sort of picturesque shot. Maybe my only complaint is how the trailer, in retrospect, really didn’t leave a lot else to be told. Like it’s a beautiful film well worth watching but if you’ve seen the trailer then you won’t have much left to discover about it’s plot or themes

    run away with me Platinum

    John Magaro and Christopher Abbott need to have a meeting to decide who looks like that because they can't both it's too confusing

    also all I could think is that the plot is the Ludacris verse from Baby by Justin Bieber, didn't help that I didn't have a crush at 12 to relate to
