Here’s the thing: this movie was fine at best throughout most of it, and then when Ethan steals the virus and cure and the movie ends on like 30 minutes of some of the worst chase/action sequences I’ve ever seen, so in totality yeah this movie kind of stinks.

I will not be seeing Ari Aster’s next movie.
