    I went into this expecting to like it and was disappointed in pretty much all counts. Robert Pattinson was reliably solid, but that’s about the only thing I liked. The tone of the whole movie felt really off and a lot of the plot was introduced randomly without any follow up.

    I really wanted to like this but just couldn’t get into it. John Wayne’s character felt really flat, the runtime was a little long, and even though it was one of the major themes of the movie, I still struggled to get past the old timey racism/sexism of most of the main characters. Also found it odd that some shots were so beautifully shot while others could have been filmed inside a bass pro shop display window.

    The thing I like most about this and the witch (and to some extent the lighthouse) is that the plots seem so inevitable but the script / setting / camerawork is so good that I’m still enthralled until the end. 

    Also, I will always pay money to watch Willem DeFoe give monologues in an old-timey dialect.

    If you didn’t stay up late watching the pinko pake on Saturday nights from 10 to 10:30 then you had no childhood
