See this movie. See it as soon as you can. The scale of the animation, the strength and bravery in the storytelling, the heartbreak, all worthy of a sixth star.
Nicole Kidman was right, this is why we come to the movies.
edit: I'm seeing an absurd amount of anti-Chinese propaganda in the review comments. do not believe the anti China hype I BEG OF YOU GO TO THE WEST JORDAN AMC AND SEE IT BEFORE IT LEAVES PLEAAAAASE
Ridley Scott's muse is apparently redhead lesbian icons
wonderful flick that could've just been another run of the mill buddy movie, but the directing and acting performances really do elevate it to a superior tier of movie! you can feel how much everyone cared abt this production, from the stunts team turning it to 11 to Michael Madsen actually trying in a role
I remember seeing the trailer for this at a young age and immediately becoming obsessed.
Out of all the disappointments in my life, this was one of them.
No but fr, it's clear that this movie enjoys certain images and art styles but doesn't know how to make any statements about any of them and so the work falls flatter than the mid story would've taken it without the vaguely Nazi/Communist-blend imagery, etc.
I WILL SAY: the death scene set to Over the Rainbow without any Foley was fucking gold and earns half a star by itself
