Men

[Phoenix]

New movie from Alex Garland (Ex Machina & Annihilation) starring Moopy icon Jessie Buckley

 

[Phoenix]

The sequel already has a trailer

Spoiler: Spoiler

 

[Phoenix]

Looks like a fun little romp

 

[jyxz]

The trailer did nothing for me when I saw it at the cinema the other day, but I absolutely adored Ex Machina so I’ll gove it a chance.

I can't stand Rory Kinnear for some reason but it looks interesting so I might have to watch it anyway

This looks completely bonkers which I'm here for.

Jessie Buckley elevates this to another level (makes it enjoyable). There’s good tension and effects but it does not give a toot about making sense.

After Cabaret and The Lost Daughter, it will be a long time before I will willingly a Jesse Buckley performance again.

Shame, because I quite like Garland on the whole.

 

[jivafox]

Awful!

 

[VoR]

Oh, that's a shame! Howso?

 

[jivafox]

It felt too meandering and the script thought it was more clever than it was. I felt it was a bit of a wasted opportunity. Like a short film forced to flesh out by an hour.

I did like the end “twist” though, the final lines got a chuckle out of me.

 

[jyxz]

Awful!

Oh no. Had this pencilled in for tomorrow.

 

[Christian]

Blame Jessie Buckley!

 

[Ellie]

What the HELL did I just watch?

 

[jyxz]

See, I actually swerved this today because of @jivafox review. Now @Ellie has confirmed it.

But am I missing out on rotten trash that I NEED to see...?

The last 15-20 minutes might even make Titane look tame.

 

[jyxz]

I quite liked Titane....

 

[jivafox]

I quite liked Titane....

I loved Titane. Not to confuse you…

 

[Nancy]

Can't live with them, can't live without them.

 

[Nancy]

I quite liked Titane....

Me too! It really got going when the boat sank.

 

[Nancy]

Is this the one with Harry Styles in?

 

[Ellie]

Can't live with them, can't live without them.

You can when they’re all Rory Kinnear!

 

[jivafox]

But not when they’re Paapa Essiedu

I did laugh at the difference between his arse and all the pasty white men
