Its a masterpiece

This film is Sunset Boulevard meets The Fly.

This film is Sunset Boulevard meets The Fly.

Well I don't know what movie you watched. But it was so boring. No character is worth giving sympathy. The journey is so boring.

I just posted my own review for it and was interested afterwards to find out what other reviewers thought of it. Not much reviews for it out there yet, by the way. I liked your assessment and have to say it pretty much mirrored mine. Good start, only little to keep us engaged after the first third. Best wishes for you and your channel 🙂

This describes my response to all the new ones ... the "original trilogy" um, what?

It’s rare that I say I hate a movie but I absolutely hate this movie. I’m a huge A24 fan but this one was a miss for me

I just saw this movie and I’m confused about the point of the substance. I thought Demi Moore would be able to live through and experience the same things as her “better self” but that’s not the case at all. They are two different people. They don’t even share the same memories, because it’s clear that Elisabeth and Sue don’t have any idea of what the other is doing while the other one is unconscious. So what does Demi Moore’s character gain from this? This makes the substance completely pointless.

66 minutes into the movie, I packed my stuff and left the cinema. Here’s why (spoilers ahead): In the opening battle scene, it seems that catapults launching oil affect characters differently based on their importance. For non-important characters, the oil bursts into flames, while for main characters, it only burns one person. Roman ships can sail right up to the walls. But in a later scene, there’s a beach with shallow water under those same walls, as the protagonist walks over 50 meters into the sea with the water barely reaching his chest. This means the ships would have been stuck at least 50 meters from the walls. These two scenes contradict each other completely, because it seems that Ridley Scott managed to force nature (land) to completely change based on his needs for the scenes - because nature works like that, it just flips drastically inside 2 hours. There’s no logic, no sense of reality - and the movie is supposed to be set in a realistic world. Roman general Marcus Acacius (Pedro Pascal) rushes into combat, tossing away his helmet while climbing a ladder for no reason - which made me think that general leading the siege is an complete id*ot. This would be instant death, as arrows were being shot from above at soldiers on the ladders. A general throwing away his armor as he rush into a battle? Very believable. Not. Once the Romans breach the walls, they somehow flood into the main square through doors and hallways, despite none of them actually making it down the walls. Yet, they appear by some miraculous teleportation, entering the square from ground-level doors while they’re supposedly still fighting their way down. In a scene where slaves are selected for gladiator training, Macrinus asks the main character, "What is your native language? I speak all of them". This is when I knew the movie was AI-written nonsense. Imagine asking a Japanese person who doesn’t know English, “What is your native language? I speak all of them!” Writing is completely illogical. They wouldn’t understand. Lucius, the protagonist, obviously understands Latin - he responded when called forward - so why ask for his native language!? The scene is pointless. I haven't even wanted to see these stuff, I wanted to enjoy the story, but I couldn't not see these technical mistakes at the very beginning, they were pushed into my face, literally. Ridley Scott should be ashamed on what he made. This is garbage. The movie heavily recycles scenes and ideas from the original, but the story moves so fast that there’s no connection between scenes. It’s like watching a video collage. People who did the movie, don't know how to tell the story. The movie is a pure money grab trying to cash in on the first movie's success. Terrible movie, terrible script, terrible dialogue, terrible story structure. Pointless scenes, pointless movie. I’ll never finish watching this garbage. What a waste of time and money. Stop following online critics and get a real opinion, already downvoted your video.

Love this Gladiator 2 better than other films🤗

This was one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen

This was one of my favorite 2024 movies!

It should have been a TV show 😅

By the time this film hit streaming in mid-November 2024, there was so much negativity surrounding it that I honest to God dreaded sitting down to watch it. And I may very well have skipped it entirely if not for a sincere reminder from you that you should never judge art based on others' opinions. That sometimes, it can be worthwhile to watch movies outside one's comfort zone and that just because something isn't 100% successful doesn't mean it wasn't worth experiencing. And while I can't say that I liked or enjoyed it, I can't say that I'll be forgetting it anytime soon. Funny enough, I watched two things this week because of you. The other was "Strange Way of Life" that your channel simply reminded me existed. One of those films, I wished was longer and the other, much, much shorter. Keep up the good work:)

This movie is so disturbing and uncomfortable to watch and at the same time it’s a masterpiece

Thanks for reminding me that this thing existed. When this short film was first announced, I was extremely excited for it. Hawke has been a favorite actor of mine since forever and Pascal had been doing all kinds of interesting work by that point. I knew a short film only playing at film festivals would never show at any theaters near me but I was pretty confident I'd catch up to it eventually. And then I promptly forgot all about it until I ran across your video. There's honestly not much movie to review here. Without credits, it's barely 27 minutes. Because you have already brought up all the relevant points on it (that I agree with 100%), I don't think I have anything to add, except to say I liked it and found it frustrating that the story ended so suddenly. Maybe Almodóvar couldn't get funding for a full-length feature because the subject matter was just too similar to "Brokeback?" I also imagine that many film companies weren't crazy about the subject matter. The main thing I came here to mention was that Almodóvar had filmed another short film, this time during the pandemic called "The Human Voice" with Tilda Swinton. I'll be watching that soon. Great review, as always. Keep up the good work:)

Great review. A different man was a good time. The second half definitely picks up, and the movie gains focus. I felt all over the place in the first half, even though I was enjoying it. I kinda wish we got to take away what Edward learned from the experience.

awesome :D very much pedro-like movie ^_^ it's scary thought that *feels like* most of 2024 movies flopped... dunno are movies going worse direction or are ppl getting tired of something... I don't have really high standards when i go movie.. i never check how long movie or reviews (before lol) or trailer... i let it hit like 'as it is'... have liked quite many flopped movies lol... maybe it's me who little bit flopped :p

This was such a great watch! Honestly, Qualley just blew me away with her performance. She’s powerful and nuanced. I wrote a review too, would be great to hear what you think of it!

i liked it... but i like dogpool have good taste ;)

Can't say I'll be rushing to see this anytime soon. To your knowledge, has Pedro ever explained *why* he chose to film this in English?

I saw it a little over a week ago at Savannah Film Fest and I can't stop thinking about it. It's simply amazing film making.

Just watched. Weirdly inspirational

Hiii remember madras cafe 2013

Didn't even know this had already been released in the US but I have my copy now. Hopefully I'll have something to add after I watch the film and your review...

This film opened almost 6 weeks ago in the US and still isn't available to stream at home. Good for the film and Sony for leaving this in theaters for a good long while and not rushing it out. Haven't seen yet but looking forward to it.

Wow chill there bandwagon fanboy this movie is way overhyped lol. The Substance was 10 times more twisted than this lame puppy

The same director made another war movie named Madras cafe try it... Sa

Victims of diddy said its reality

Try shoojit sircar's Madras cafe- amazing movie

We were _shocked_ 😂😂😂 I did a Cersei afterwards. _Do you consider me to be a person who is easily shocked? The things I just saw, they _*_shocked_*_ me_

Really liked Florida Project but never caught Red Rocket. This one is getting a LOT of attention. Good review, man!

You're getting married? Congratulations bro

Watch madras cafe same director.. ?. .

U can watch madras cafe, amazing civil war movie😎😎😎

It costs less than 10 million dollars

LIKE TO SHAKE WRITERS HAND!!! AMAZING DIRRECTING AND ACTING.....I'D VOTE FOR HIGHEST AWARDS❤❤❤

The consesus i keep hearing it has a lot of great elements but the script is messy. I feel a lot of other films are going to keep this out of the best picture race

An unique concept excellently executed.

Ti agree the films class mate. Just so you know the 2 lads aren't brothers.

Nothing negative to say? No flaws? Wow. Got a bit tiring hearing you say everything thats you think is great about it . Just my opinion on your review

Be happy with who you are.

Movie was awful. Just awful. 0/10.

Jesus, this film... Amazing. Mesmerizing. Frequently made me crumble like a wet piece of paper. Having just completed it 12 hours ago, I need to consider it a while longer before dipping my toe into any discussion. But yeah, mark me down under the "Loved It" column:) The past should be lived with, and not *in*.

This movie wasn’t disturbing at all. After watching a few reviews I went into this expecting to be grossed out beyond measure. Instead, I found myself laughing (a lot) towards the end. This movie really did not need that final act. It could’ve wrapped up before that and been a much better movie overall. The last act is just comically bad on so many levels. One saving grace is that it did remind me of The Thing which is one of my all time favorite horror movies.

I'm surprised you took it as a hit piece. Much of what was in the film seems to goover (and neatly compile) stories about Trump that have been going around for ages. That's like saying a movie about Henry Fors that mentions that he wrote the introduvtion to the U.S. printing of Mein Kampf ....or a Steve Jobs bio that mentions how he cheated Woz when he sold Woz's Breakout Game to his employers at Atari (he didn't steal it, but allegedly lied about how much they were paying for it so Woz got chump change while Jobs pocketred the bulk of the fee). These are non-flattering, but long circulated about ....less than flattering.... moments in the stories of their subjects. I felt htat all the "unflattering" Trump stories were similar longtime tales. Including the ....Ivana scene.... (which I could have done without). I read it was based on divorce cherges - which she later retracted (I won't speculate as to whicvh version was "true"). It did seem a bit gratuitous and I don't think it would have changed the movie if it were left on the cutting room floor. I found it an interesting character study of someone with ambition to achieve power who was not troubled much - if at all - with self-reflection. That description could go for nearly ALL our 'captains of industry', so I did NOT view the film as a 'hitpiece'. Then again, I didn't really learn anything new about DJT OR Roy Cohn. But I enjoyed the film.

The best scene was a ripoff from weeping angels in doctor who if you know what I mean.

Great review man. I enjoyed the first movie but I liked this one a lot more. Naomi Scott absolutely stole the show. I wholeheartedly agree that this protagonist is better than the first.

I agree that the ending did not give me what I was looking for. My adult daughter and friends saw it then we saw it together. I only say that because most of the movie's basis was already provided. She's a huge spoiler, but I didn't mind. Much of it I watched with an upset stomach. It was definitely a trigger. I am also 1 of many. With that said, if forgetting was the theme, understand most women never forget. IDid Not.
