    Jake Johnson is hilarious in this thriller-comedy that tackles co-dependency, paranoia, loneliness, and more. It’s silly and uneven in tone but at its heart is some sincerity and real emotion 🥷

    Apart from the musical set pieces, the saving grace of this adaptation, surprisingly, were the dwarves’ scenes and Gal’s performance. I’m sorry but Rachel Zegler’s hair was really atrocious and distracting here. I really wanted this to be good, but the choices made felt watered down and too cheesy 🍎

    Naomi Scott delivers a visceral performance in this sequel that’s even more ruthless than its predecessor. It’s definitely a terrifying portrait of trauma and anxiety 😈

    I’m a huge fan of female-led revenge films—and to me, Vilma Santos was just not convincing as an enraged mother who suddenly had the guts & particular set of skills to take down the huge villain. Plotholes aside, even with good performances, the supporting characters just lacked depth as the whole film focused a lot on the status quo, never the ‘why’. Still, the melodrama aspect and themes here were very affecting and I might have shed a tear or two 🍷
