It’s all got value. Colors and characters speak to me.

    I literally screamed at the last two lines of this movie. Too iconic my body could not handle it.

     The most agonizing wish fulfillment film I have ever seen. Where time seemed to stand still in the first film, we get a sense that the clock is running out from the very first moment in that crowded book store. 

    I love when movies open with so many unanswered questions hanging and don’t spoon feed. The intrigue is in deciphering the body language and polite comments until BAM! Something important is revealed. 

    Gosh I love these two flawed and fated humans. I wonder what happens next!

    This film captures what it feels like to be in your twenties with everything in front of you and nothing to lose. 

    Captivating chemistry. I believed every second of their conversation.

    The first movie of the year is my favorite movie of 2024, and this watch was extra special because I got to share it with my mom.

    We had a great conversation afterwards, which will probably be one of my most cherished memories with her as the years pass.

    Oh and this movie, of course, still rules. To me it’s giddy fun.

    Okay so here is the thing. This movie is not a movie. It reads more like a Pinterest board of ideas and suggested ideas. 

    At times incoherent and occasionally lost my attention. I will see it again eventually now that I know it’s more of a vibes only watch. 

    Coppola is definitely outside of the box that Hollywood has put film into. I’ll give him that.

    Not sure I enjoyed any of it? Was I supposed to? Jury’s still out.
