THE pandemic film. all things considered, great, funny. ari aster found his footing in something that isnt horror so thats awesome! extremely well paced and was almost all-consuming in its small details of the pandemic. i dont think this is as centrist as reviews are making it out to be, i think its more of a raw look at how we reacted as a country to covid, the political unrest that was synonymous with the time and how facebook rotted away peoples brains. pedro pascal’s character was also not really in it all that much..? kinda didn’t make sense to me given how central he was to the narrative  also the narrative that i have seen about ari aster in the last few years with him being out of touch for making the films he does, i think a lot of you would rather just watch spongebob and not have to think about what you consume and what it means as an art piece lol VOTE JOE CROSS
