    I’m just grateful my kids are older and I’ll be spared the punishment of having this one playing 24/7 around me.

    Perhaps on her third feature Emerald Fennel will finally write a script that doesn’t fall completely apart on the third act. She might even learn to be a true provocateur, like Julia Ducournau, and not just Adam McKay with an A24 t-shirt. You can practically hear her laughing behind the monitors, thinking she’s saying something nasty and hysterical about the rich, when in fact all she is revealing are her thoughts about the middle class.

    Denzel Washington: “Just give me my check”

    Rami Malek: “This is way harder when I can’t lip sync my way through a performance”

    Jared Leto: “I didn’t bathe for over six months, murdered three hamsters and developed a hilarious strut in preparation for this role”

    Gavras manages to pull off what is easily the best opening shot of 2022 *AND* the worst closing shot of the year. Woof. What a cowardly and treacherous way to drop the ball on the 1 yard line after such an incendiary ride.
