“WHY WOULD YOU EVER PLAY RADIOHEAD FOR A MOVIE LIKE THIS” Sorry to all Dune, Prisoners and fans of Denis villenueves other works but this is easily his best movie ever Let me start off by prefacing this that this genuinely a horrifying movie, following parallels of a mother trying to find her way in life while her children go to her hometown in order to find their brother. A slow, yet harrowing tale that somehow just gets even worse as you watch it. There was only one, only one fucking joke in this movie, the rest of this was actual fucking misery. A somewhat realistic tale of actual events but instead of terrorist organizations such as ISIS, they are Christian nationalists which adds a sense of realism to this movie, how everything within this movie could actually have happened irl (even though it’s absolutely unlikely this would happen to anyone). The wide and slow shots in this movie had me on the edge of my seat thinking something bad was bout to happen but guess what, nothing ever happens, the only time they actually do is when you least expect it, and I got to give Denis props for keeping me hooked throughout this movie Now onto the ending, and because this a spoiler free review, I’m gonna keep it short and simple, This is an Oldboy level ending, nothing will make you expect that what so ever.I can definitely see Tai, Alec, and Logan liking this, Ik Tai loved prisoners and Logan also loved Villeneuve’s work so I definitely expect this to be liked be everyone. All in all, I’m gonna be thinking about this for a while, depends on how many hours, days, or even weeks. All I know is that it’s not gonna be leaving my mind anytime soon. Peace ✌️ ALSO WANTED TO ADD, DONT WATCH THIS WITH YOUR MOM WHATSOEVER.
