Thank you for your courage.

Oh, I was merely insinuating your dismissal of the film isn't as impressive or damning as you meant it to be.

I'm not trying to be impressive... This is just a terrible film that tried way too hard to be edgy. The very first scene is a perfect summary of this piece of cinema

You admit you didn't finish the film, so your opinion here is worse than useless.

Yet you keep engaging with me on my opinion

Perhaps try convincing me of what a fine film this turned out in the 3rd act? Cause I wasn't seeing it

I wanted to enjoy it very much. I liked the general story and the actors, but all the gross out scenes for the sake of being gross and the almost manic cuts were just too much. Wish a better director tackled this cause Brad and Margot deserved much better than to be in this trash
