Serviceable, and Fanning is good, but… what was this about? I was getting AI vibes from some commentary - “they still haven’t figured out the hands.”

The Many Saints of Newark 2021
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
What a mess. No scene or character is allowed to breathe under the suffocating weight of references and an aimless, hamstrung narrative. No one’s motivations make any sense, everyone is a caricature, the photography is bland, the color grading is despicable, the acting is wooden, the pacing is frail. The film cares so little about any semblance of theme that it spends about half of its runtime babbling about race without making any intelligent point.
