  simply not a fan of any of this. expands on nothing it touches on to the point where the 'commentary' is just unadmirable. even pattinson's work got old for me as it went on. not funny enough, not cutting enough, not smart enough, there's just not enough of anything here for me.

  always gonna root for bong but this is so easily his worst so far in my eyes. really do wish i was in the crowd that's loving it. just happy he bought steven yeun along for the ride.

  The Brutalist 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 30 Nov 2024

  a masterful portrait of imploding ambitions, crumbling fantasies, despondent legacies but most importantly the resilience of creatively, and the shoulders that bear the weight of artistry.

  utterly seismic filmmaking in every sense of the word, we don't deserve this.
