Netflix is just best when it gives rando no name directors money to make whatever they want. All their big projects are more useful for taste filters than entertainment.
Just a horrible movie. I wish I could get my time back.
I mean, I enjoyed it a little. But, I knew that it was going to be super cheap thrills.
It’s true. Part of the point the video was making is that there’s absolutely nothing wrong with cheap thrills. But (he says), it’s a little weird for the cheap thrills to be the subject of the network’s greatest investment of money into anything to date, and dressed up in all the trappings of a super-blockbuster tentpole offering, and based (supposedly) on powerful source material which is anything but cheap thrills and in fact makes a poignant and compelling point in the exact opposite direction, saying that cheap thrills against the backdrop of a dying world can be a poisonous distraction.
Absolutely, i actually watched this video and The Pitch just now I don’t disagree in the cheapness nor do I expect anything more or different regarding the soullessness of these movies but my disagreement comes down to ‘movie bad because it doesn’t check my enjoyment blocks’. For some people it does. Twilight, Fifty Shades, and Insurgent series movies didn’t lack popularity and people who enjoyed them. Even if I feel like they were trash, personally.
