[Macleod]

Affleck was originally going to take the Driver role in this -- but it's worth everything just to see him in the blond 'do.  😂

Wait that's actually kinda smart tho

MPAA Rating:

Rated R for strong violence including 
sexual assault, sexual content, some graphic nudity, and 
language.

[Elessar]

sounds good

[JWR]

Sounds like it'll be a much talked about movie for better or worse.

we'll know in 9 days (premieres at Venice on Sep 10).

 

But yes, interesting that they aren't trying to make it more appealing by toning down, well, everything ha ha. ⚔️

Surprised that Disney is letting Ridley Scott go all out with this.

October is getting so damn crowded that I don't see this being able to profit depending on the budget.

Should move in Ghostbusters: Afterlife's old spot. It has no chance in Oct 15 spot with Venom + HK. But I think the studio gave up on it. It's more likely that Scott's House of Gucci moves in cause people want to see that one.

House of Gucci seems like the more entertaining and less dreary of the two.

[Valonqar]

Oh yes House of Gucci looks like a good fit for Thanksgiving.

It's odd to me that this isn't getting credit for being a Me Too movie.

Welp, not a promising start.

[Cmasterclay]

Several positive reviews out there that have not been added, should end up around 70 on RT like Stillwater did for awhile - but probably only an Oscar play for Comer.

[WrathOfHan]

56% on RT with 9 reviews and 53 on Meta with 8. Well, at least this is far from Ridley's worst?
