Get out but weird and bad

Get out but weird and bad

un poco confusa la peli pero la idea es original.

no es terror (la vendían como tal).

première fois qu’un film me paraît compliqué à noter parce que j’ai tellement apprécié le film et qu’en même temps toutes les critiques que j’en lis me paraissent justes.

Yeah, I still have several issues with this movie, the same as I had on my previous watch, mostly regarding underdeveloped characters and the abrupt tonal switch up in the second act, but I still believe that this movie is vastly overhated. Also I see a lot of reviews saying this movie is exploitative, and while there are several rough scenes, they do not linger longer than they should. The first 10 minutes are probably the hardest bits of the movie to watch, and having to skip them is totally understandable, but I don’t think it goes further beyond what many other critically acclaimed films of this sort have gone. And sure, stories like this have been done before, and better, but that doesn’t mean we should flat out disregard the filmmakers’ take on this kind of story.

I will also add that the last 5 minutes are fucking mesmerizing. And the buildup to those last few minutes is what motivated me to watch the whole thing again.

honestly torture for torture’s sake, that felt wrong and horrid to watch. janelle can bloody act her socks off, but there just felt like there was no reasoning to this story whatsoever. there was no depth or motivation to any of the characters, which again made this film feel gratuitous and odd.

despite all of that, i really did love some of the soundtrack pieces, and there were moments where pretty decent suspense was built. janelle obviously stole the show (probably because we barely got to know a single other person on screen) but i think this really missed the mark.
