My partner is making me go because there’s a Mariah Carey song in it. 3 hours and polarising reaction. We’ll see 😂 I saw it. It's a mess. It has its moments though and Phoenix is fantastic. It's just a bit exhausting by the third act. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a bit exhausting by the third act. Yep, that’s about the same as I felt too. The first half is great, really engaging and intriguing, and then it goes so far off the rails that it just becomes an irredeemable mess that makes no sense whatsoever. It’s so damn long as well, and once you’re into the second half of it, you really feel those minutes crawling by. It felt like 3 days, not 3 hours. It’s such a shame as well though, because that first half is genuinely good and could have gone somewhere interesting in regards to representing how people deal with anxiety. Quite a few walkouts and laughter at parts that definitely weren’t meant to be funny in my showing too. I don’t think it’s a career ender, but someone at A24 needs to reign him in a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 It's a blank cheque film from the studio, Aster did well for them with his previous films. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if there is such a thing as too much creative freedom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh I watched Kermode, they interviewed Aster and asked who he made the film for and he said “myself”. Clearly it shows lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Alfred Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Disappointing for Fast X. Not bad, but not good either. Suppose the audience finally getting tired of this franchise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted May 21, 2023 Author Share Posted May 21, 2023 (edited) Fast franchise is way past its peak here. However, I would also put this partly down to the good weather across most of the country as Saturday increases are very muted.

Krissykins Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Contributed to Beau is Afraid today. I didn’t think it was a “mess” but the whole middle hour could’ve been removed. There’s potentially a good film in there. Somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
