Trailer felt like it went by for an eternity, and I don't think it looks very appealing tbh. Still gonna see it for my love tho.

Google alerted me on my phone about this. It looks good, but premiering on DirecTV first is a bit suspicious.

A24's last DirecTV-on-demand-alongside-theatrical-release film, The Vanishing of Sidney Hall, was a film that received bad reviews. This might be telling.

FWIW, reviews seem pretty solid for the time being. This could be a Slow West situation.

I'm guessing this was made a while ago and is only getting released now because of Timmy T's ascension.

 

Edit: yep, shot in 2015, apparently.

Looks dope

I mean I saw this moooooonths ago.

Shoot. I saw this an entire year ago.

This movie was a hot ass mess.

 

Chalamet’s and Roe have a lot of chemistry onscreen that when the betrayal begins everything about their relationship (and the film’s story) begins to fall apart.

 

Here's my old old review: https://www.rendyreviews.com/movies//hot-summer-nights-review

 

[That One Girl]

Rated R for drug content and language throughout, sexual references, and some strong violence

[Eric Prime]

Finally got around to seeing it.

 

It was an absolute hot mess. Timmy deserved so much better.
