I knew this would be a weird movie, because it's done by Cronenberg
So yeah, very weird movie :-) Understandable that people walked out of the cinema. But summer comes early over here this year, so I was too lazy to move off my couch and I watched it entirely.
Quite liked it actually, even though some parts are a bit nauseating.

Sinners.

It was fucking excellent.

I don’t even give a shit about Ryan Coogler usually but this was really something.

John Wick 4? Johnny Mnemonic?

I dunno. I hate those John Wick movies though. Also there’s going to be a fifth one so he didn’t die I guess.

Very cool and funny and awesome and sad.

not the best movie, but still a nice watch, especially because it is so not-Hollywood. There's one very graphic scene that they could have toned down a bit.

 

2nd time I watched this movie, which is a bit lame because you already know who the killer is (spoiler alert), but it still is a great movie, with a wonderful cast and script

I posted about this recently: found it mediocre at best. Derivative of Shane Meadows' superior Dead Man's Shoes. Check it bruv.

It's Michael Haneke, mara. Asking him to tone down his famous brutality trait is like asking Sonic Youth to tone down the noise a bit.

I enjoyed it because it is very non-american in its portrayal of a revenge fantasy.

I found it much more watchable than John Wick 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.

Will check out Dead Man's Shoes

Oh man, nostalgia! I watched some scenes from this during Covid, but I haven’t seen it in full since like 1992.

Dead Man's Shoes is fucking brilliant. As is most of Shane Meadows output.

Omg I loved this movie when I was 8 or 9. Also one of the Karate Tiger movies, I think it was 4 or something. Need to re-watch it sometime.

I saw a clip of John Wick and found it strange, Keanu Reeves slapping people silly before shooting them. In reality would just shoot first. I guess that's the point of gun-martial-arts or whatever it is. Daft as a brush like.

If you enjoyed Neil Maskell in Bull and want more British grit then you might also like Ben Wheatley's Kill List.

Aye, I concur. The last thing I saw of his was The Virtues. He portrays harsh northern reality perfectly.

Final Destination: Bloodlines — I’m shocked that this thing has a 92% on Rotten Tomatoes. It’s not the worst FD movie but it sure as hell isn’t good by any stretch of the imagination. The violence is cartoonish to the point of being hilarity.
