    Completely disagree with this take. Throughout the movie there are various allusions to modern events (David Duke says that more people like him need to be in office in one of the more "wink wink" lines) and the closing footage of Charlottesville and Trump praising the Nazis brings it all home by showing that yes, people like that indeed are in office right now and that this shit is very much happening today still.

    I get the message but I just didn't think it worked the way it was introduced in the movie. It was jarring especially cause of the rushed ending.

  2. I was liking the movie until like the last 30 minutes. The ending felt so rushed and the ending bit with 

    Spoiler

    Charlottesville and Trump felt weirdly out of place. Like I get the message but it just doesn't mesh well at all with me.  

    Also we barely get to know the main characters. We learn almost nothing about their past. Also the film's message seems a bit muddle. It seems like it didn't want to take a position when it came to the black radicals we see in the beginning of the movie and the police. Like it wanted to play safe with that. The film is well acted though.

    This should make as much as The Lobster and The Killing of a Sacred Deer combined ($11M) even if it ends with just a few nominations since this has Emma Stone. Gonna be interesting to see which costume drama makes more between this and Mary, Queen of Scots, even though this looks like it'll be the much better film.

    If it does well with the Oscars it should cross $20M. But yeah most I see for this is $40M and that's if it wins Best Picture.
