    Really great stuff here. Soderbergh loves finding movie star charisma and focusing on on it. Fassbender and Blanchet obviously have it, but the lady from Industry brings it too.

    Lighting and color palette slap too. I'm glad Soderbergh is out of his streaming deal.

    Immaculate vibes here. O'Connor makes being homeless in an Italian village look so sick.

    Colin Ferrell be looking good for having a five yr old's haircut.
    This movie is about that feeling everyone has where you think your friends all think you're the dumb ones. Actually your friends are just as sad as you.

    This absolutely slaps and I'm mad more people haven't been recommending it to me. McQueen and Flynn setting their psuedo-Mann movie in Chicago is perfect. Big shouts to Firewood Lanes. I have so many pics of Blake being hammered in there.

    Davis is obviously on fire but the rest of the cast is bonkers too, minus Michelle Rodriguez. I felt like a Marvel dork pointing at the screen when another actor I love showed up. Daniel Kaluuya climbing up the Certified Guy™ power rankings.

    It's not super tight story wise, but the messy stuff makes it stickier and let's the performances shine.
