    Cinematography - dope. Did feel a little uneven at times  despite its added layer of fiction - was entertaining character study of a man who took the opportunity to be come the worst version of himself.

    Jeremy Strong was good but why haven’t I seen Sebastian Stan getting any praise? Thought he was exceptional.

    I don’t think there was single bad performance in this whole movie. This movie really had everything and was still able to feel extremely genuine. 

    Vanya reminded me so much of people I know and did a great job of reminding me yet why I haven’t talked to them in several years

    This could’ve been a 45min Black Mirror episode. Entertaining, but really…I think your point was made at the hour and half.

    Enjoyed it - everything I expected it to be and more. Kieran’s character, and Jesse’s at that, felt incredibly  authentic and both performances were exceptional. Crazy to me that this is only Eisenberg’s second ever shot at directing. While the story line was thin - intentionally so I would think - it’s a story that’s nonetheless filled with an immense of amount humanity - it’s honest, hopeless, hopeful, and funny.  

    I can’t say it enough - Kieran Culkin is incredible in this.
