    This is great when following the killer. Some of the shots here, especially the 2nd and last killings, are incredible. But gets rather dull when we switch to following the police. Still highly worth the watch and a great San Francisco movie.

    I really wanted to like this more than I did, but one thing I find very weird is people saying this character is shown as having a passion for or finds joy in cleaning toilets. This is ridiculous. It is not the toilets he cares about, it is the daily routine and structuring of his life that matters to him. Come on.

    Doctor Zhivago

    Everybody knows that the most beautiful souls maintain their individuality in the face of brutal leftist revolution by remaining above it all in the form of cheating on their pregnant wife and then writing poems about their ravishing mistress. I cried tears of rage when their mansion was requisitioned. I rended my garments when their country estate was boarded up.

    Truly one of the most intolerably bourgeois stories ever put to screen. It stinks!

    One of the more perplexing questions of our time is why we don't get more horny spacedoom.

    edit to add thoughts I posted to twitter: I have some problems with this as far as it kinda contains multiple undeveloped ideas crashing against each other but it's important as a film about horniness in a technological-advanced society ratcheting up the fascism in the face of ecological collapse
