Great film. After a week of bleak Oscar winners and nominations this was was hilarious (Anatomy of a Fall, Salt burn and The Zone of Interest, not so much)
Loved the score, script and performances
Companion of The Producers.
Ending is too predictable for the most part
Great film. I wonder if young people will get the references such as when they receive it bring hot/cold (and these unbearable, in the extremes the innocent victims went through and often died from), as well as the shower in the garden (writing this as if a review in a magazine/article).
Having been to Auschwitz the main thing I mainly tell people that shock me (and causing a young Japanese man to break down and cry) were the rails in the ground to the furnace.
Barbaric in the efficiency of death that I'm appreciative that it's ensuring more are aware of it.
The background low grinding drone throughout the time in the scenes by Auschwitz were stomach churning. The odd noises that popped up were weird.
This film creates a male of fact view in the events in some regard.
Borderline art house, it's a valid entry into the canon of cinema.
Separately, having watched The Anatomy of a Fall the day prior, Sandra was great as always in this.
There were brief flourishes but it's a n average film and below average biopic not a great one I felt. Maybe too subdued drama. The noise was fine for me. The deep nasally voice grated a bit.
Yes the family gave their blessing but it's been made/controlled for them not an audience. Rather rambling

Good but barely a feature length film and you can tell, lots of padding with subplots/mini narratives.Not bad, drama/people are needed mitt than the "journey"

Great Western. Great acting, cinematography, action, story (gripping!). Love itTop five Western (3:10 original has been my favourite)
Movie comment on Saltburn
boulderman
Very good drama.Excellent camera work and cinematography, editing and score
It's as weird as the trailer suggests.
Scenes I've never seen in cinema before
Barry has played the same character a out five times now (the lead/ or supporting) and he's too old for the part
Has My Man Godfrey vibe.
Ending felt cheap
7/10

After sleeping on it my appreciation of it has risen a notch.Fully on drama. Slow burn and unfortunately left us wanting. After the first few mins there's not much to hold you.
Prosecutor was brilliantly irritating, fast intense monologues which would otherwise have added to the run time.
Highly unlikely to rewatch alas.
Great dialogue and Sandra was worthy of the Oscar nomination

Rewatched tonight in memory of Bernard Shaw. R.I.P.Movie comment on The Fall Guy
boulderman
The action was zoomed in too much.The 8.5 cannon roll really was a world record.
Jodie was too whingy.
Villains weren't that villainous enough
Decent action and the unicorns were good.
Door key one of the best jokes and they cut the fist joke from the trailer?!
Music too loud, too many big songs to amp the excitement, although the score was decent.
Almost a 7/10 good
... The bizarre Dune score was weird although perhaps also a tie in to Mad Max?

The fake zoom adjustments and camera wobble are annoying.Enjoyable humorous film with great performances

If I had known the story, even at the beginning of the film that would have helped immensely. As it is, not that interestingMovie comment on Golda
boulderman
All the dislikes do to the conflict I'd assume as no other critical review given. Bold to make it now thoughIt's better than Maestro
Movie comment on We Own the Night

Good film, similar to many others and it felt a bit shortMovie comment on The Killer

Decent but not greatFine story and the different-ish angle of modern films with a Bresson homage

Very good but not great. Worthy performance, us it's a companion piece to MilkMovie comment on Page Eight

Good film. Bill being too monotone Bill. Euan stood out performance wise. Nice tricks but there were a couple of knowledge areas that were offMovie comment on Dune: Part Two
boulderman
Great cinematic experience. Preferred it slightly to the first and looking forward to the next oneMovie comment on Poor Things
boulderman
Very good.Brains are like mush. They are only firm when pickled. Chloroform takes best part of 10 mins and why to swap the General with
Movie comment on Next Goal Wins
boulderman
Hmmm named after the documentaryTaika Waititi instills something extra, shame the same title, not snappy.
Fassbinder channels "The Killer" character he played
IRL don't do the Heimlich if you can hear them choke as it means they can breathe and it isn't blocked

Decent enough, I think the true story holds it.Movie comment on Dumb Money

It'll be completed to The Big Short. It's not as good but it's compelling enoughMovie comment on Scrapper
