    Woman of the Hour

    ★★★½

    I like this movie I think it has some great writing some great performances and I think it’s shot very well, and its tense moments are very well done, especially near the end. I love the side plot with Laura who’s entire narrative leads to nothing, absolutely nothing, it takes something in an other film that we’d see as like, pointless to the film, and it flips it, the way it leads to nothing actually adds to the film, really…

    This movie is so absurd and it has so much density that I’m just kind of, not sure how to unpack it.

    I mean the obvious is there, it’s self loathing, how your negative mindset about yourself can ruin your own life, but I feel like there’s more in just not picking out.

    Anyway it’s beautifully shot, the performances are all great, Sebastian Stan especially this is probably the best I’ve ever seen from him.

    Yeah I mean, confusing, emotional, shocking watch

    Just gonna give it a 5 star rating now because even if it’s like a 6/10 I know my insane biased towards Batman won’t allow me to rate it as that.

    So uhhhh
    Score is great
    Cinematography is great
    Zoe and Paul are great as Catwoman and Riddler

    And Pattinson is the best Batman to date.

    Again, haven’t seen it, but, I don’t need to lol.

    I don’t have much to say other than it’s really really really good and that I should have seen in in a theatre when it came out.
