Video review with a contrarian (positive) recommendation. Argent claims that the movie isn’t woke, and the arguments show that it isn’t *explicitly*. Argents threshold for wokeness seems pretty tolerant of it, but his points stand.
Lots of spoilers in the review, Argent goes through pretty much the entire plot.
Totally agree. It can’t get out of its own way and the dialogue made my skin crawl. I peaced out at the part where it seemed as if we’d finally leave Blunt behind and have a kino driving scene and she pops back into frame like a bad rash with more pointless blathering.
f*g
Great and accurate review. I’d just like to add that the movie is set in modern londen, with obvious implications.
Awesome, thanks so much for your work! Although, just checking it now, I am logged in, but there’s no link on the review itself to edit/delete it. And when I go to my user profile I see the option ‘Edit Review’ (no option to delete tho) but when I click it nothing happens…
waltuh
My phone slipped and I accidentally put 5 for fedora tipping. Sh*t.
Tanks. I watched it because of your review. Liked it a lot and can second your conclusion 😀
Hey! Sorry. Fixing/setting up the comments and reviews is our top priority. Also will revamp those woke warnings so that you add them manually like tags. And allow custom tags. (Many people don’t even know what fedora tipping is. And now “neo-marxism” is more commonly referred to as woke. It’s time for those to go and allow more creative control by you guys.)
Great seeing a lot of young people on this site, hope it grows.
nigga, is this an ai slop response?
turing test: failed
You will now be recycled as a dildo for ur crimes against humanity
Heads up: There’s some woke stuff sprinkled throughout the film, though it’s not the main focus of the story.
Yup, decided to return for awhile, because winterblues makes me watch films…. Yeah, I like that there are younger people, but naturally us boomers don’t care much for anything made after 2005 or so 😉 but seriously, films and series, kinda develop a whole new meaning when you enter your midlife, you either want quality or genuine novelty. Not that I mind, when I was much younger I used to hang out with older folks giving me music recommendations, this was well over 20 years ago. Learned a lot, I was still listening to Iron Maiden when I entered this old geezer forum full of people who liked progrock, indierock and what now gets called postpunk, in one year that expanded my musical knowledge. It was great, I still have all this knowledge on obscure bands that I use to troll younger people and boomers alike….
So yeah, youngersters are definitively going to go through this site, watch some old flick and go hmmm this isn’t bad, then they are going to forget they watched it, only to return to it when they are older. Such is life. I personally use this site primarily to find a film with a White cast, I actually found a lot of great films using this site alone, so naturally I will be returning in the future, just for that and hopefully for the bantz.
Good sh*t. Check out the anime “Wolf’s Rain” for a similar vibe. (The ending credits song of Felidae reminded me of it.)
Whoa it’s a good thing the interface on here sucks because this site is f**king dogsh*t and I hope it fails LOL
a gaggle of ancient broads with one foot in the casket and they still think they deserve a tom brady. the limits of hypergamy are truly beyond reason.

Yes,indeed. He can mimic in the original key such singers as Luther V.,Laura Nyro, Marilyn McCoo,Barbra S.,Diana R.,MJ,Cuba Gooding,Sammy Davis Jr.,Petula Clark and numerous others.
Yeah, I watched it the other day and decided to share my impressions. It’s scary that people have forgotten how to think and form their thoughts and perceive any consistent text as the generation of a neural network.
