The Stepfather (2009) -- we'll see how awful this is compared to the original.
I watched Banshees of Inisherin last night. What a weird film. Subject was certainly something I haven't seen done before.
Yeah I'm not a huge fan of Colin Farrell but I think he was the perfect choice for that film.That film was so brutal. I thought Colin Farrell was amazingly perfect in that, which surprised the hell out of me. I loved the way he would ask if people thought he was dumb. The whole thing just crushed me.
Way too long. Started off good but fell off.More Wes Anderson watched. French Dispatch was interesting, but perhaps not one of his best. It had good ideas, but the execution felt like it was missing something.
I wish they didn't use so much black&white on it. I don't quite know what they were aiming for with that - the look of black and white newspapers? The rest of the movie is obviously structured as short stories - which is what newspaper articles are.
I loved the little "magazine cover picture cartoons" during credits. I don't know what the style is called but feel like I've seen it in a lot of things in the 1980s/1990s.
Yeah it could have used some cutting down, mainly in the 1st and 3rd story. Would have left room for a more meaty epilogue.Way too long. Started off good but fell off.
I'm something like 6 episodes in now, and properly addicted. (I'd probably be further along, but it crossed that "good enough that my wife should see it, too" line, so now we have to find time we both can spare.)Started on [The Tourist] last night. First few episodes are interesting...
Sounds like I need to revisit and see where we left offI'm something like 6 episodes in now, and properly addicted. (I'd probably be further along, but it crossed that "good enough that my wife should see it, too" line, so now we have to find time we both can spare.)
Big Fargo vibes here.
