Re: I'm Thinking of Ending Things (2020)

Unaffecting, confused misfire from Kaufman. His first genuinely boring effort.

Fincher about to redeem 2020:

Ahh yes, can't wait for another "perfect" effort from Fincher. Dude has become so fucking boring after Zodiac.

Re: Tenet Reviews/Reactions [Possible SPOILERS]

Fury Road barely made a profit. Regardless, obviously movies have different levels of accessibility and general interest, but I don't think it's cool to make value judgements about the general audience because they're not into Heneke or Kiarostami or Jarmusch or whatever. Some folks here keep blami...

Re: Tenet - Box Office Discussion/Speculation

I think the problem isn't that the film is difficult or complex, rather it's simply a bit confusing. Especially when you can't understand important exposition due to audio issues. That Nolan seems to be more interested in his concepts instead of the story or characters doesn't help either. Tenet is...

Re: Tenet - Box Office Discussion/Speculation

Not all doom and gloom though, Tenet can still make a decent amount of cash in the long run. No one knows anything at the moment.

Re: Tenet - Box Office Discussion/Speculation

Tenet is already at a user score of 84% on RT (Interstellar is at 86%) and it's just going to drop more and more from there. These scores seldom go up over time. Metacritic user scores are at an 8, already lower than Rises, Interstellar, etc. The extremely low (for Nolan) IMDB speaks for itself. If...
