There was so much hype around this movie, online "film heads" hyping it up as one of the best movies ever made, etc. It's just OK, it is visually bland, the score was annoying, the story was stupid, it's too long, weirdly unambitious, and I can't believe it cost $140 million, it probably went to licensing all the "needle drops" and the rest went up PTA and DiCaprio's noses. What a miss

Hollywood is actually fucking dead

6/10

Has PTA made anything worth watching since Boogie Nights? Seems like he tried to make an indie movie that would appeal mainly to the fart-sniffing film student crowd but that doesn't really work with a $150 million budget

Yeah but I consider that a DDL movie and not a PTA movie.

Same thing with Gangs of New York, that's a DDL movie not a Scorsese movie.

i think we both audibly groaned several times within the first 30min. this was right before halloween so we went and got smashed at a local bar instead, which is probably why my recollection is a bit hazy.

someone mentioned the movie last night and i said i hadnt seen it but had beem meaning to. then we he started explaining the jist i rememebered i had seen some of it but walked out and had forgot. but I just keep nodding along anyway.

One Crapple After Another had way too much score and music. It straddles the line between action drama and action comedy. If it had stuck to one it could have been better. Ideology over style. Boogie Nights is 10x better

Also the Black Lady Teyana Taylor has a disgusting bogged face, like her nose was destroyed by a cocaine addiction IRL. you can see how rough her skin is and she's just disgusting to look at. High-T masculine gross groid. PTA is married to a Black woman IRL I think

Finally caught this on HBO max. This has to be one of the most overrated movies in history. No earthly idea why it’s winning all the Best Picture awards so far, it’s like a 7/10 at best. Sean Penn was great but otherwise it’s just a bizarre degenerate action drama, not particularly memorable.

This movie is a great example of how this script is considered genius because its PTA, but if it was written by a high school kid, people would rightfully point out how stupid it is.

The movie is at its best in the beginning when the radicals appear to be taking over some sort of corrupt system. But then...that plot line sort of disappears?

Sean Penn's character is all over the place. It was interesting when he appeared to genuinely love Teyana Taylor, but i really don't know how to reconcile that with him trying to murder his own daughter.

Both Sean Penn and Leo's characters seem to have an IQ of about 90. It's hard for me to find a movie interesting where the plot seems to rely on people playing morons.

I don't really understand why Teyana Taylor named names, or left and never came back. I don't really understand what the government was doing and why the hispanics seemed to sort of be on the military's side.

The trailer / title / budget made me think it would have all these big battle sequences, but the movie is actually just people practicing shooting guns way more than real battles.
