    Perfect Sisters

    ★★½

    These girls walked so Gypsy Rose could Gypsy Rose.

    Teenage characters - unlikeable

    Main character's intentions - understandable

    Detective with an eye patch - unresistable

    Lightning Space Viking and his ex-girlfriend fight a genocidal atheist with bondage powers.

    I don't remember enjoying this film too much when I watched it in theaters, but after a few years with the post-Endgame MCU, it's honestly not bad.

    This movie felt like a dream.

    "So anyway, I started blasting" type protagonist.

    Great mystery thriller start-finish. Amanda Seyfried was crazy charismatic and did a good job of playing the smartest person in the room. The pacing was perfect; I didn't feel bored for a single second.

    The only comment I have walking away from it all was how quickly it wrapped everything up in the final ten minutes. That being said, the ending is fire.

    Criminal underuse of Sebastian Stan.
