Entertaining, but ultimately unsatisfying. The satire is laid on so thick it obfuscates the themes. I’m not sure if I didn’t get it, or if there was nothing else to get.

Opus 2025
Very stylish. Cool cloths, a beautiful locale and great music. A fun third act with an interesting twist. I think this movie is trying to investigate things like the power of celebrity and the value of creativity, commentary and criticism. But I don’t think the plot or characters are developed enough to create a frame of reference with which you could investigate those ideas.

High and Low 1963
Was locked in all the way through, not just because of the subtitles. Tension at an all time high.

The Brutalist 2024
A beautiful, punishing, and ambitious movie investigating big themes.
Will your art save you? Is it the journey or the destination? I thought I knew. Now, I’m not so sure.
