    Wowwww this was SO much fun!! Keke is a fucking superstar!!! And I was so impressed with SZA - they were both fab. 

    I said a few weeks ago that I miss comedies like The Hangover where you’re just following chaotic friends for the day and this really scratched that itch and gave me so much more! What a charming hoot. I look forward to rewatching in the future.

    I’m really not sure what I think about this! 

    I’ll start with what I liked - Mikey was amazing, the soundtrack was class and I loved the beginning and the end. 

    It was really the home invasion and wild goose chase that lost me. It went on for waaaaaaayyy too long and wasn’t as funny, to me, as I think it intended to be. So much repetition and screaming. 

    I also didn’t get why Anora cared so much? What was…

    Never seen anything like this lol. Think Malignant, think Death Becomes Her, think Alien. It’s visceral, gross, funny, shocking, frustrating, camp and completely batshit crazy. The messages were sometimes heavy handed but that’s the point, there is nothing subtle about this film - from the visuals to the performances and don’t get me started on the sound effects! 

    Demi and Margaret are incredible (and absolutely stunning). And I loved the direction of this film - certain shots are still floating around in my head even now. 

    It’s probably more of a 4.5 star film overall but it’s certainly a 5 star cinema experience.
