    not a single thing works; does not function as visual, audio, or– evidently, if we are to judge off the anecdotal current state of affairs of Los Angeles filmworkers– as economic stimulus. total implosion of money. @FBI @IRS @DOJ @FTC

    ★★½

    somber, futile death march incongruously rendered as inspirational tale of national unity– to Zwick's credit, he somehow finds a way to have you walk out the theater kinda uplifted after a final shot of a mass grave filled with our star ensemble; not a sage decision, but a sort of magic trick. far too busy being history class BAD NEWS BEARS to interrogate and explore the vigor of 19th century Black liberation. kept me wanting to rewatch that new GEMSTONES episode hahaha.

    May be the most Hitchcockian Almodóvar, emphasis on the cock.

    Quite possibly the most irresponsible film ever made.



    A sometimes sadistically dark, goofy, raunchy, balls-out, brash and loud and often surprisingly subtle and fucking perfect comedy. I can't believe this exists. This exists, wha?

    To anyone wondering if this movie plays it safe..... hahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahhahahahahhaha, yeah no.
