  Mickey 17 2025

  ★★★½ Watched 14 Mar 2025

  I wish I loved you more. 

  The acting is really amazing. Everyone brought their best. Robert Pattinson really does prove to have endless range, especially in the way he portrays the different Mickeys. I think Mark Ruffalo is also great, channeling the spirit of Trump.

  Poor Things explores very challenging themes around sexual domination and independence through a very fresh and taboo perspective. 

  The world feels very new and exciting, as if we are discovering it with Bella. Everything from the acting, production design, score, etc. is wacky, unique, and fun.

  Always a joy to see new ideas, techniques, and stories in film. Keep it up Yorgos!

  I’ve been gaslit into thinking this would be mid.

  I think the obvious criticism for this film is that it is repetitive, but I don’t think it’s actually that bad. At a very fundamental level, the movies are very similar, but they explore it in a way that I think builds on the original in a really nice way.

  I really like the ending, and the way Riley comes to accept the best and worst parts of herself in a…
