Letterboxd — Your life in film

Evidentially my love for Gyllenhaal isn't enough to compensate for the utterly ridiculous Bay bulls**t.

Did the nudity in this film serve a purpose other than satisfying the male gaze? This entire film felt fetishized and overplayed.

A cautionary tale of toxic masculinity?
I loved Egger's previous two films, but this just felt overproduced and empty. Where was the magic sauce that allowed me to suspend disbelief? More than disappointed, I'm gutted.

Oh, they tried, really tried, but it just didn't work for me.

What the F? 
Ben Whishaw is terrifyingly committed to his performance, but I'm not sure what this film was about beyond the impressive performance. The shaky hand held camera work gave me a headache and I was (literally) nauseous. Just a little more focus would have been appreciated.

So poorly written.

Nope. You would have to pay me, handsomely, to sit through this again.

I adore Melanie Lynskey, but I'm going to go ahead and forget I ever saw this (and whatever Ryan Phillippe has done to his face).

Nope.

No.

I hate bad voice over narration.
