  I relate really sadly and deeply with Jesse Eisenberg in this. Also now get the Culkin hype for the awards season

  I love this film!

  Engineering ingenuity is the hero in this movie. The way Ron Howard conveys incredibly complex problems is masterful: burst helium disc? What is a helium disc and what does it do? Who cares, all we need to know it’s that it’s bad when it bursts. Square peg in round hole, 12 amps maximum. In the wrong hands this could have been a boring procedural docu-drama, but the tension here doesn’t let up for the whole run…
