    Mickey 17

    ★★★★

    The Thing inspired location
    Challengers inspired 3ways
    Goodfellas inspired narration
    Trump inspired authority figures
    Some of the themes are underbaked (is Ruffalo’s character motivated by religious, corporate, or governmental interests?)
    Original ideas and hot weirdos
    Attempting to live with yourself is short lived

  • The Brutalist
