One of the most visually stunning films I’ve ever seen. Cinematography, production design and score were all top notch. Brody giving a powerhouse performance.
Felt it was really well paced and enjoyed the intermission. Really glad I saw this in the cinema.
I feel like there’s a lot to digest with this one and it’ll take a bit of time for certain things to click and sink in.
Wonderful that an ambitious, original and artistic film can be made today…
Think this was my first lynch feature. At times brilliant, other times over the top and the acting nearing soap opera levels. I know that was deliberate but also felt too over the top for to long.
I got really into it by the end. The dream like trance and beautiful colours were great. Truly a vibe film. Makes me wanna watch more Lynch films.
Some other thoughts
- felt like a big influence for chazelle’s Babylon
- ol Greg from the mighty boosh seems to make a cameo???
Enjoyed this a lot. Robbie Williams has some great songs. At times it fell into the same traps that most musical biopics do but in part that’s unavoidable.
It felt less sanitised than most biopics and felt an unpolished portrayal of Robbie.
The monkey cgi gimmick I think helps make it feel fresh.
The glow up from Michael Gracey as director is admirable. To go from the greatest showman which is one of my least fave movies to this is quite impressive. Rock dj sequence was the stand out
My cinema applauded at the end. It has flaws but ultimately a good time
