Oh my goshhh it’s just as good on a rewatch. Seriously so beautiful and really personal.
The villains were my favorite characters in all the movies
Sigourney Weaver is such a fantastic actress. I believe her character is just so well written. I think strong female leads can tend to be written to diminish others around them and are more tell, not show.
In this case though, they let her show emotion, she problem solves, she cooperates with others, and she shows strength and compassion. She’s an icon, she’s a legend, and she is the moment.
Not to mention the characterization of everyone else on the…
I totally watched this movie because it’s the sequel to one of the most beloved movies ever, totallllly not because it stars Paul Mescal as the main character, the actor I’ve been following for years after his jaw dropping dramatic performances in projects such as All of Us Strangers and Normal People, totally not cause he’s my celebrity crush. Nah. What?
Anyways, it was fun! Felt like and had the energy and gravitas of the original. Some pacing issues definitely but that’s hard to get right in projects as big as these. Overall, enjoyed it!
