Who are you. What have you done with the real Webstar1000????
All jokes aside, I was so-so on this one. It had a lot of elements I really enjoyed but as a whole it just didn't come together for me. Maybe it was my expectations, idk.
There were times when it felt like certain scenes -especially nighttime scenes- were building towards something and then it would quickly cut to the morning after. Stuff like that just kept dampening the momentum for me.
But you're right, it definitely is disturbing and unsettling. In that sense it does succeed.
I did love it. I found it very disturbing and still thinking about it. I agree that I felt like I wanted more. But it’s that a mark of a good film? It ends and you yearn for more? I’m a huge fan and I think it really resonated with me even more so cause I spent 10 days backpacking through Iceland where this was filmed and I’ll tell ya… the beauty is unmatched and the isolation as well. I felt both in almost every outdoor scene. What a fuckin brilliant film.

WARNING: This movie is quite extreme both in gore and obscenity/nudity.
Necronos (2010 - Germany): The best horror/fantasy movie I've ever seen by far, and one of the best horror films that I know. The Germans did it!

^ Okay. I'm an old forumer but never been into a forum with that facility before. Sorry. I'm editing it now.

I've recently watched another movie:
Genius (2016 - US/UK): Or not so genius. But was like a good therapy session after the last maniacal film I watched. 6.5/10
Immortel (ad vitam) - (2004 - France/Italy/UK): Like a looooong cinematic video (in games) of those years. Not only it was good, but also, and more importantly, it was not boring. This is really a tough thing to pull off. Even such game cinematics could get bland, if they are longer than 5 minutes. A feast for the eyes, a playful lover to the imagination. Hmm, certainly not a tutor to the intelligence. (It would be a masterpiece, then.) Kinda like The Fifth Element (1997) and Gods of Egypt (2016) were intertwined, but in an original way. 8/10
Belfast is Kenneth Branagh's Roma. It's an absolute delight and I prefer it to Alfonso Cuarón's Oscar-winning film.

A couple weeks ago I finally watched The Nightingale which is a solid 4/5... Likely going to nudge it up to 4.5 when I get around to doing my letterboxd review.
Belfast was good, but not great. I really liked the photography and it was well-written and acted. It's compared to Roma for obvious reasons, but they're very different films too. It's an effective coming of age film though the actual Civil War aspect of the film didn't land in the end as it seemed it would in the terrific opening scene. 4/5

I looked around for the store for a good 20 minutes for something I haven't seen on the lighter side. Ultimately I saw Incendies and it's been on my watch list since I even knew who Denis Villenueve was, and I said to my friend, "Ah, Incendies. I hear it doesn't get much lighter than that."

I am telling you. Spider-Man is the best comic book movie ever made. It’s better than the Dark Night. Yes I said it. It’s the perfect action movie and I cried in the theatre. Yes open tears. Tom Holland IS Spider-Man. He is the next great young actor. I’m so thankful he is doing more Spider-Man’s and where it’s going from here? Fuck me it’s so exciting. This movie is a 10/10. It could NOT be better. People were yelling and clapping in the theatre MORE than once. Fuckin see this movie. It’s amazing.
