Letterboxd — Your life in film

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

This feels like it shouldn’t work and then my god does it work

My mom showed me this when I was far too young (maybe like 12?) and I haven’t watched it since then. Holy moly, it’s wonderful. So impeccably crafted. Amazing match cuts. Whiplash changes in pace and tone, all perfectly executed. 

I don’t understand why people don’t talk about this in terms of top tier Coen. Maybe they do, but they should more.

Also, Barry Sonnenfeld as “Marty’s Vomiting (voice)” is an all time great credit.

A great movie about a hardened master thief just trying to actualize his vision board

Ralph Fiennes does an incredible amount of dancing, yet it’s not enough.

A 90 minute competition for who can make the egregiously incomprehensible decision, and the winner is me. 

5 stars! (2 stars.)

God bless forever the coens, whose response to writer’s block is to write an incredible movie about writer’s block.

Sometimes you forget why the classics are the classics

Unreal scene of the most incredible prank call in history.

Dad cinema at its pretty good-est.

I mean, what’s not to like?
