Men- Wow, that was a lot. I didn't enjoy it but I'm glad I watched it. It was beautifully shot, the two leads were fantastic and I loved the sound design. That said I cannot believe this got a wide theatrical release. The whole movie is fucked up but that last 20 or so minutes is something I'll never un-see. There are a lot of layers to it and a whole lot of symbolism but at the same time it's a surprisingly direct film once you get on it's wavelength. Even then it's still intentionally ambiguous or at least feels sort of incomplete and that may well be the point but it just didn't work for me. I imagine I'm not alone on that. I'll certainly never forget it that's for sure.
Edit:
Bodies Bodies Bodies- Well I thought this was going to be a comedy slasher taking the piss out of gen Zers. It's not. It's more like Clue for 20 somethings without any of the fun, a great cast or wit. It's literally just bunch of narcissists fumbling around in the dark arguing and making awful decisions. I think they thought they were being self aware to a degree but it just doesn't work. It mainly just reinforced the idea that gen Z are bunch of useless self absorbed fuckwits and even more so if this is what they find entertaining. I guess the ending was cute but aside from that it was mostly just aggravating and a chore to sit through. I should have known better since it stars Pete Davidson.
