    Been itching to return to this film for quite some time. Picked up the 4K on criterion last year and finally sat down to watch. Gorgeously shot like oh man is this film just beautiful or what?? I wish the story was AS engaging as the direction, the score, and the cinematography. And that’s not to say the story is bad but it’s just… not enough for me. I remember watching this movie in theaters back 2017 feeling like something…

    need more of these types of films

    this is a strange film. hollow in its attempt to say anything remotely affecting. if the goal is to give the audience the experience of unbiased photojournalism during wartime, I find it interesting that there is even conversation HINTING at the possible reasons for all of this war. Is Garland asking the audience to not question things? To just take notice and document the horrors but not inquire more about why the horrors are happening? Why go through the efforts…

    doesn't even attempt to add anything new or interesting to the original film. still no depth, no interior. maybe you could see it as a big fuck you to fans but I wouldn't give Todd Philips that much credit.
