I liked the mc alot he's basically neurodivergent horse rainman. The sister on the other hand was gratingly black but that's not a major issue. (Spoilers) the eating scene was really good and reminded me a lot of that fire in the sky one so if you liked that you'll like this movie. Plus I like how the film brings back a lot of reoccurring concepts and explains them well. I've never seen any of Jordan peeles other movies so I can't compare them but this one has a cool premise that's never really been done before. Good movie I give 8/10.

Going in I knew this would be the case but holy shit that movie blew. It has a 4.0 on letterboxd? What the heck. Are regular movie watchers really so easily distracted by A list celebrities and "subverted expectations" that this passes for even watchable, let alone good? Discuss.

Here's another one from director Ruben Ă–stlund, he did The Square (2017) and Force Majeure (2014). Looks good

Looks like some idiot removed the "movies" hole so I guess it's getting posted here.
If you don't believe me just google "The Bear review" and see for yourself.

Spoilers ahead.
So near the end we got this guy getting a vision just as they are invading a mountain fortress. ( Not a fortress on a mountain, the mountain is a hollowed out fortress with millions of troops and armored vehicles inside.)
As the invasion is going on they get the prophecy and turns out the enemy fleet that was coming to defend the planet is actually way bigger than estimated and they are not months away but instead hours away.
So they send a message to their revered dreadnought ( A giant war robot they put your body in forever if its too damaged) fighting on the surface, and they are like, yo, frick the invasion we gotta retreat, and this dreadnought guy starts blaring out to all of the night lords ( his team) on his giant loudspeaker to retreat back to their ships in orbit in the middle of a war.
The other nightlord groups are like shit the prophecy guy just said to retreat and every single night lord across the planet starts retreating.
The main guy who is leading the war is pissed so he is like frick you we will shoot you down ourselves if you try to retreat.
So this guy with his spaceship takes his spaceship through the planetary orbit and its like watching a giant meteorite falling from the skies with flames everywhere, just to pick up the last few ships worth of survivors. This ship has never left space before and its freakin wild yo.
In the finale they got a vision from the prophet, a huge butt enemy armada appeared right behind them, they had to fight their own team to break away, and there was a huge ship breaking orbit towards a planet like a meteorite scene just to pick up the remaining crew somehow,
Overall shit was cool as shit yo.
Would recommend 4/5 stars.
Downside: not enough torture scenes. That's like the nightlords gimmick so should have absolutely been in.
Upside:
The final chapters are packed with interesting shit going down.
The main character is a bro's bro.
We get to see Malcharion the war sage active and blowing shit up.
Really good do or die moments.
It's hilarious to watch the exalted get BTFO every time he makes an appearance in the book. It's got the whole starscream screaming," frick you megatron!" after every mission vibe to it.
Seriously read the series. It's good shit.

hey this isn’t about the movie itself (it’s amazing, and the intro of Lee Van Cleef’s character is NOTE FOR NOTE the same as the “farmer interrogation” in Tarantino’s Inglorious Basterds), but rather to advise on the EXCELLENT QUALITY of the 4K UHD version shown in their review. I bought it myself right after watching and just finished the film. The release doesn’t have much in the way of extras outside of a historians commentary, but has stereo, surround and mono mixes as well as an AMAZINGLY well done remastering and color treatment of the film. Visually, it’s about Criterion quality and it is like 24 bucks. Worth the buy rather than streaming, which had inferior audio and shitty yellow twinge color correction

I normally hate rom coms but this is one of my favorite movies.
Emily Rossum and Justin Long's relationship is believable and well acted.
At times Long's neurosis is a bit much but it's reminiscent of Woody Allen before his shit became completely insufferable.
Anyone else seen this?
