    The Substance

    ★★

    Simply falls short of its potential. Buoyed by zany cinematography and well-executed effects, it has the makings of a cult classic, especially for fans of the genre.

    Unfortunately, the movie's intriguing premise fails to materialize into a compelling narrative. The plot plods along, hammering its central metaphor over the audience's head with diminishing potency. It is reductively caricatured through absurd characters and dialogue.

    Lacks in substance.

    I'm Thinking of Ending Things

    Truth be told, I purged this movie from my memory. I just know it was really bad. I only remembered the title with the help of chatGPT.

    “What is that thriller that came out, I want to say, in the last five years? It takes place in like a remote, cold location. It's snowing. The girl drives there, I think with her boyfriend, and it's a little bit of an avant-garde movie. Nothing really happens for a lot of it.“

    ★★★½

    Good movie — elegant storytelling and symbolism. I felt it became a little repetitive and slow at points. Enjoyable watch but wanted to like this a little more than I did.
