30 minutes into The Colour Purple and it's one of the most depressing first acts of movie ever.
Edit : Movie was great, easily one of my favourites of 2023.

Yeah, Napoleon was bad and that was the worst Joaquin Phoenix performance I've seen. Looked nice tho.

that sudden sex scene though.
I do think one the greatest lies ever told by the film pundit class is that the DC of Kingdom of Heaven is any good at all. I also do think Scott probably has more flops than gud films off the top of my head.
When Scott sticks to simple plots with interesting settings he's at his best.
Alien, Blade Runner, Gladiator, et al are very simple at its core and at that point his technical capabilities get to shine.
When he does movies like Prometheus where they try to answer how life came to be on Earth that's when shit falls apart.

Fallen leaves was fine. I loved Bill Murray and Adam Drivers performances, but it felt a little flat for me. Can't connect to two stone faced Finns. 3/5
Alien is one of the greatest movies ever made.
After that, Scott’s made a whole lotta meh. Some good films. Lots of average. Some bad. No joke, American Gangster might be my second favourite Scott.

great film that is held back by having bloom as the lead. one of the bigger miscasts in hollywood for sure.
yeah, Bloom brings the movie down a lot, but I still think the movie is good despite him. I wouldn't put it anywhere near Ridley's bottom tier.

The Counsellor was so bad that the best scene in a film written by Cormac McCarthy was one where no one talked.
Loved it, thought it was shot so well, fassbender, pitt and bardem were good. Ending was epic.
Has anyone watched the kitchen.
Felt very much like a first time director doing all the technical things you're supposed to do in a film but just felt hollow. Didn't deliver the personal story well enough nor really drive home the wider social point it was trying make. Kano is going to need to show more range as well, he can't just be sully in everything.

Also watched Wonka yesterday which would've been better if I'd fast-forwarded through the musical parts. Probably had more fun spotting the parts they were shooting in Bath when I was there.
blade runner is great, and the sequel is also great. people who think otherwise are probably into ball and cock torture, or other degenerate behaviour.
By Xpike Go To Postwatched saltburn the other night, expected way more horny
Spoilers:
Drinking cummy bathwater. Licking the drain for full effect.
Menstrual cycle vaginal fingering, with self-period blood tasting, and oral sex performed.
Silhouetted man on man domination.
Full nude grave fucking sequence.
Full nude dance scene to "Murder on the Dancefloor".
Personally the one thing missing was something involving depravity with Rosamund Pike's character when she was actually conscious.
