(Director’s Cut)

A young Tom Cruise must stop the Lord of Darkness from destroying daylight and marrying the woman he loves, directed by my goat Ridley Scott— you’ve said more than enough. Legend is simply an ethereal piece of fairytale with some unbelievable practical sets, costumes, and makeup work. A vapid, albeit, absolutely gorgeous exercise in world-building that is utterly dazzling. A glimmering dreamscape of pure audio-visual bliss, distilling the essence of fairytales with a dazzling flare that only few films can match. Magnificent production with a mesmerizing, effervescent aura harshly, yet terrifically juxtaposed by Curry’s devilish performance. A Nightmare Fuel for children or anyone on acid.

I have close to zero idea what I just watched. While its cinematography and visuals are absolutely gorgeous (so much glitter absolutely everywhere), the writing could definitely be improved on, because I felt like I was on crack trying to understand everything going on. The best performance in this film was easily Tim Curry's Lord of Darkness; Tom Cruise looked like he didn't know what was going on half the time, and everyone else was just doing their own thing. I watched the extended director's cut too, so there was an extra twenty minutes of confusion added to the whole experience. I get what Ridley Scott was going for, but Legend is far from his best work.

→ film-related note: i've realised that this film is just tom cruise propaganda, because if i was lili, there's no way in hell i'm going home with cruise when tim curry with massive horns and a looksmaxxer's dream face exists

Viewed Theatrical Cut

Very pretty movie.
Too bad it’s a slog to get through.

Maybe the director’s cut is better??
