bites off more than it can chew, but there's a good amount of this movie that is in the pocket and i really enjoyed!
pattinson's hottest work for me. the scenes where mickey 17 and 18 are fighting had me squirming in my fucking seat drenching the upholstery.
insane to do such an unmissable heavy handed colonizer narrative wherein you intend to exterminate the natives with gas and blame it on a cringey Trump (and Melania??) impression when we all…
super charming made for tv low budget musical movie. Chenoweth giving an astounding performance despite Broderick's unignorable failure to deliver anything once the plot takes off.
great dance sequences, darling costumes. the kids are so cute and very talented.
colors could be more vibrant but i appreciate the way the film looks and moves most of the time, i think a higher budget would have allowed for stronger/more dynamic lighting choices.
super charming and feel good, wonderful performances all around.
chenoweth truly phenom in this role.
gorgeous cinema at times and at times it's really interestingly disorienting. amazing acting performances. interesting how plot unfolds like mythology.
threadbare plot for almost two hours. really really slow start. seems to be billed/positioned as "an exploration on what makes us human" but then the antagonist/obstacle is an angry god? who can be defeated at literally any time and with no consequences?
translated subtitles, so who knows if there was stuff we missed.
could have been cool- and lots of moments of really touching sentiment and sincerity- but to me seems like it gets in its own way.
visually stunning every scene looked like an oil painting. Maine.... new england roads take me home to the place i belong. such gorgeous on-location scenes. also gorgeous sound stage scenes with painted backgrounds!
acting and vocal performances are really delicious and strong, If I Loved You shot GORGEOUSLY.
lowered rating bc i felt like they slowed down June Is Bustin' Out All Over too much and also they cut bangers (You're A Queer One, Blow High Blow Low) and that made me sad bc i think they could've fit.
