    ★★★★½

    I’m really hesitant to say anything beyond the fact that I love a movie that looks and sounds this amazing and is as propulsive as it is for around two hours of its runtime.

    Guy Pearce is both hilarious and chilling and just chewing on scenery, absolutely loved that performance.

    Any criticisms I have are really just regurgitating the idea that the second portion after the intermission definitely lost me to a degree. That’s not to say that the amazing…

    Lily Rose-Depp is pretty outstanding here.

    It’s a phenomenally crafted movie (obviously, it’s Bob Eggers) yet my instant reaction was that it was the Eggers movie I was the least invested in.

    Dafoe is great just playing himself. 

    Skarsgard fills the screen and the viewer with dread every time he appears. The tension in those scenes is propulsive for the rest of the movie.


    Some of the sequences will blow you away, whether it’s Depp’s physicality or Hoult’s journey to Eastern Europe and what transpires. 

    Getting to see Eggers make magic for the big screen will always be a treat.

    Feels wrong to actually ‘rate’ or ‘review’. Impossibly chilling. 

    An actual horror movie.

    Once you overcome the sterilization of romance in blockbusters (gotta give us at least a kiss, Universal, come on), it’s such an upgrade on the original.

    Leads are so good. DEJ is the best. Glen is the best. So much fun. Feels like we are back at the movies in America.
