    This movie is what made me realize Safdie’s Elara Pictures is completely scoring with New Jersey casting finding people that are so pitch perfect cartoon characters brought to life, and it’s this truly niche story about comic book artists mainly, and it happens to be the sweaty and grimy in a way that’s shameless and amazing. Think The Greasy Strangler, but whoa we’re not strangling anyone here, this is a human story at its core and a strong debut for…

    Bennett Miller strikes again. Tatum > Ruffalo > Carell for performances, but these are all GREAT performances. It's the intense wrestling drama that everyone was expecting. Carell is so creepy and fully immersed in his character. Tatum is unlike I've ever seen him.

    I love the Eagles.

    On a second consideration, Foxcatcher grows on the mind. I find the buildup to the closing events to be all the more fascinating than what eventually occurs, but say, if I were to see it again it could be 5/5 and my favorite film of the year. It's certainly Bennett Miller's strongest film.
