  • You say that, but I wonder who was the target audience because I am not aware of anybody I know liking it. Appart from some kids who liked the bright colours and the childish Farrel humor, but clearly they don’t get all the meaning of the movie (and most adult jokes). I am a man, feminist and I hated it with a passion. My girlfriend and my women friends, all feminists, did not like it. My more apolitical friends thought it was just ok at best. It’s a “white liberal girlboss” type of feminism that is too shallow for people really invested in this subject, and at the same time too obvious and in your face for anti-woke warriors. It felt like it was just a 2 hours long advertisement for Matel.


  • This and The Joker are the two movies that come to mind when this type of question comes up. Inception is not particularly bad, just so… correct. I was expecting something really mindbinding, that would make me rethink about it long after the movie was over. It was just a pretty scenery with mid acting. No amount of practical effect can carry a movie on his own. The Joker on the other hand was just a waste of my time and left me infuriated.











  • That’s the thing, I totally get why people say he’s a sociopath cause even though he’s fucking rich, he can’t even pay for an hotel room for the participants. I have a feeling their belongings were taken so they would not have to deal with people stealing each other’s stuff, which would have been wayyy less likely if people got their own room. I highly doubt it’s that much cheaper to rent a fucking stadium, buying 2000 sleeping bags, paying for portable toilets, etc. than to rent a whole cheap hotel or motel.

    He really wanted those participants to be desperate for that money. “At least if I get to the end, all that crap before will be worth it”. It’s disgusting… He’s not considering those people as humans but as cattle.
