    Can’t wait for hit film “The TikTok”

    I always find biopics weird cus it’s so cemented in this pseudo-bootlicking culture, and this one in particular baffles me by simultaneously blatantly calling Mark an arsehole, then trying to make him out to be the cool good guy who never actually meant to do anything wrong and oh please don’t be mad at the billionaire 🥺. I wouldn’t be surprised if Zuckerberg financed the film himself. Still, it’s a good enough film that doesn’t really have anything noticeably good or bad to comment on.

    The Wolf of Wall Street

    ★★★½

    Incredibly unrealistic, the FBI have never successfully done their job before.

    Compared to the last film that I actively sat down and watched in this manner - There Will Be Blood - I found this to be a much better representation of capitalistic greed, better paced, and a mildly better ending (although not by a lot). The only thing stopping me from giving this a better rating than that film is the egregious amount of sex. Holy fuck I am not joking this had more sexual innuendos, flashes and straight up porn scenes than Borat.

    I got to the scene where they fight with dildos and yap about space bagels before turning it off. What a bland, cringey movie. I'm sure I would have enjoyed the visual spectacle that people claim this movie to be if I wasn't distracted by the time I was wasting on #LOLRandom moments and the shallowest message about family I've ever bear witness to.

    Every part of this film is amazing. A lovely looking, sounding, and feeling movie with an impactful “message”  that gets in your head. It’s only failings are that some story elements could’ve been tweaked, such as Neiman’s dating life, and the expression in the acting is somewhat carried by use of anger (the simplest emotion to believably write) and J.K. Simmons’ impeccable acting as always.
