The Substance

I’m very mixed on this one, I feel like the movies runtime is a detriment to getting the audience invested, there were some portions in the film I thought could have easily been cut. The ending as cool as it was with its practical effects felt strictly as if it was shock factor to wake up the viewer after enduring such a slow burn. Telling each side of these characters could have really built some speed if they’d just cut down some segments. Overall the acting was great. The practical effects were really exciting to see especially when most creators have switched to cg. The score was kinda cunty I won’t lie. It’s a decent film if you’re willing to invest the time but I think it gets a little over praised.
