January

This sucks so bad that I actually started crying one hour in and then the weeknd showed up and I cried even more. I can’t believe how frustrated I am over this piece of garbage like I usually suck it up and stay through to be a sincere hater but this doesn’t deserve one more minute of my life.

I genuinely can’t do this. I’m sorry for the disappointment but my younger self was right about this all along.

I almost never like a film if I don’t care about the main character. You usually need something, sympathy or even mild interest to stay engaged. But here? Nothing! I didn’t care about him, didn’t root for him or even feel conflicted. Nothing but apathy for a truly awful human being and somehow that’s exactly why it works. The film doesn’t ask you to empathize, it traps you in its atmosphere and lets you sit with the discomfort. Watching him spiral through what feels like a three hour humiliation ritual was simply compelling. It’s unhinged and completely in control of its own chaos. And I’ll admit it, having him played by an actor I already dislike made it even more satisfying. But I'll give him that... he’s ridiculously good here. Fully committed, an absolute menace.
