    I thought the memes over the years were pretty amusing but I'd forgotten that this movie was actually funny.

  • The Deadly Affair

    The Deadly Affair

    ★★★

    Some eye rolling sound design choices really cut this one off at the knees. Record scratches, etc early on, but the climax of the third act genuinely has Scooby-Doo level foley.

    The narrative angle this movie takes seems completely insane today, but I wonder who would even have been buying into it at release just 4 years after the LA riots.

    Fantastically stupid writing.

    Direct quote: "we kidnap people and transport them to other countries willing to look the other way while we interrogate them. But we do that with the flag on our back. It's a dangerous grey area to do business in, but we have to be careful about drawing a moral line."

    Is that actually a grey area, though? Morally?
    Is there anything grey about that at all?
