Challengers (2024)
8/10
A Good Movie With Great Stuff In It
23 May 2024
I mean it's a classic love triangle story, just a tennis version, and more stylized version, it's well made, and it's performed really incredibly by all the cast, i've never felt so deeply into these characters in this type of love triangle cases and for me to actually care about it in a long time, it's brutal, toxic relationship, it's pretty intense even though i'm not straight feeling it, and i think that's quite the issue that i have with Challengers was that towards the end the timeline switch quite bothering me a bit that i can see myself being more into the intensity of the situation more if it's done better, but again i still appreciate the scenes itself as it was well written and well acted, great cinematography also, and just overall a good film, i'm not gonna rewatch it and i wasn't in love with it but i do think that it's a good movie with great stuff in it, and the most important thing is that i was into it from the beginning till the end and wasn't bored at all, and for a two hours plus romance drama film that was a legit high point for me.

A Cheesy Silly Boring Action Film
19 May 2024
Am i the only the one that think most of the action sequence in Fury Road was boring?, and that's not because i think the action was bad, it's the lack of characters introduction that makes it boring for me, i think that if you wanna do a big action sequence involving all the important characters of the movie, you need to at least give the audience to know the characters personality first, the reason why i was bored already in the first big action sequence is because i still have no idea what personality these characters have, Immortan Joe, Nux, Furiosa, and even Max, the lack of characters introduction, the movie just wanna be exploded right away, and it's tiring sometimes, unlike the other previous three where it still have an introduction, other problems that i have was the editing decision, Miller seems to want the movie felt like the old days with these cheesy 80s action editing style which could've work back in the day but it just wasn't fit in this modern era and version of the movie, it just looks weird, and i guess that's about it, the main story i didn't really care also, it's silly but i guess i can still follow it, and the good stuff from Fury Road was of course the world itself, that's what still amazing about the Mad Max franchise and what i adore from George Miller in terms of Mad Max is that he is a genius on creating this weird looking future full of these weird characters but i like it, the cars model was incredible, and the majority of the special effects in the film looks good, the practical effects was great, but the performances was a mixed, i thought Immortan Joe was good, Charlize Theron was ok as Furiosa, Nicholas Hoult was good as Nux, the girls were ok, but Tom Hardy as Max i wouldn't say he's bad portraying him, i know that he want's to be different but it's a mixed performance overall, and to remind also that even though i think most of the action sequence was boring, it's not bad, i believe something that boring doesn't always mean bad, incredible things could bored you as well and that's the case with Fury Road, the action was pretty good but mostly boring, that's it, Mad Max: Fury Road in my opinion is a big disappointment overall, it's a cheesy silly boring action film, with great production and world, some good performance, and pretty good action sequence, but again the bad pacing makes it quite sufferable to watch, definitely not something that i would rewatch anytime soon or in the future, i just simply don't care.

A Pretty Good Mad Max Continuation Entering This Interesting Fantasy World With Good Action Sequences
12 May 2024
The Mad Max world has entered its fantasy element to it, while sometimes it's silly, it's not too silly that it makes me dislike it, and overall i did found the fantasy element was more interesting than The Road Warrior, Beyond Thunderdome release around The Goonies era where what's fun in the movies was an adventure films with a bunch of kids in it, and that's the case with Beyond Thunderdome and it quite works, actually the most surprising thing about this movie is how much i like it, i found Beyond Thunderdome as a pretty good Mad Max continuation entering this interesting fantasy world with good action sequences, it might not be the amazing first and original Mad Max, sometimes it's silly like i mention earlier, and overall tone and direction wasn't as good, still i can say that overall i like and quite enjoy Beyond Thunderdome.

More Of Like A Meh Planet Of The Apes Movie Than A Bad Planet Of The Apes Movie
10 May 2024
I have quite a lot of problems with this newest Apes movie, i thought that the first 30 minutes was pretty boring, the story was just not as compelling as the three previous film, not as engaging and not as well structured as the previous one and that's not saying that the previous movies were perfect in any way, i just feel like they could actually showed more without adding another duration, one good interesting character that they kill way too soon, the villain Proximus could've been introduced more well and showed more so that we can actually be terrified by him but unfortunately that's not the case, he's still good but not as terrifying as he should be, some of the editing was weak, and that's basically all of my problem with the film, the good stuff in the film was of course the CGI, special and visual effects in the film was incredible, the slower dialogue parts are mostly the most engaging part of the film, all the characters while some wasn't perfectly used, they were good characters, Freya Allan was ok, and Noa i think was a perfect sort of Caesar next leader of the franchise, the rest of the supporting characters was good too, and the ending was really opening some new continuation story that i definitely more interested and excited for, very strong ending that i really like, so overall it's still a mixed feeling mostly as i really do wanna loved this movie but it is a slow burn Apes movie with a problematic stuff in it and not as amazing of a story as before, but not bad, and it still filled with amazing technical stuff, good new characters, good performances, and decent story, i do believe and hope that i will like the next one even more than this one.

A Great Film That Missing A Lot Of It Scene, But Not A Bad Movie Overall, And Still Almost An Ok Movie
5 May 2024
6.5/10 Crazy film it is, Love Lies Bleeding was a great looking film, with great style, and great performances, but what i felt conflicted about the film was the pacing, the pacing was a mess, and it really bothered me as i thought that the movie could've been really work if it's actually expanded in terms of the story and characters development, shows more of it, instead this happens already, that happens already, showed more is my wish throughout the film while watching it, although again the story of the movie i thought it was ok enough for me to actually still follow it until the end, but it wasn't like amazed me as again the pacing was so messy, and there's a lot of missing scene in the film, overall i thought Love Lies Bleeding was not a bad movie at all, interesting concept, and there is still a lot of things i appreciate and like, but what they left in the final product was more of like a great film that missing a lot of it scene, and it's like someone accidentally hitting a mess button so there's some scenes that got accidentally cut, the scene placement that got mixed, and so many leftovers is what i felt the final product is, and what's in it is just ok to good but still with the feeling of unsatisfied mostly, again Love Lies Bleeding felt like a great film that missing a lot of it scene, but not a bad movie overall, and still almost an ok movie.

The Fall Guy (2024)
8/10
One Of The Most Entertaining Films Of The Year
1 May 2024
8.5/10 It's a funfest of a film The Fall Guy is, one whole theater just out laughing joy at the film as it is the funniest film i've seen in a long time, and i haven't open up my laughter personally for a new comedy in a long time too, Ryan Gosling has just killing it lately since Barbie, his performance in The Fall Guy was definitely the most entertaining performance of the year so far, his chemistry with Emily Blunt was enjoyable and good, David Leitch excellent direction especially the action sequences was great, the cinematography was great, the soundtrack was good, the special effects was great, the story was entertaining enough while it's not completely original but still fun, i just wish it wasn't this long of a movie, i do felt it's a bit too long, but overall i still enjoy the hell out of The Fall Guy for the most part, it's fun, and it's enjoyable, it's one of the most entertaining films of the year.

Civil War (2024)
10/10
A Masterpiece Filled Content From A Simple Product
1 May 2024
I didn't have many expectation for Civil War as i really don't like Alex Garland previous movie Men, but man did he shock me more than a surprise, i think Civil War is definitely in the conversation for best films of the year, a Masterpiece, the way that Garland showed this complicated conflict more in the simpletest way and also still showing us the straight forward powerful true deep meaning of the story was perfect, the journalist takes of it also fascinate me as it beautifully yet tragically captured the job, and the execution from every camera shot was perfect, it's intense, it's again beautifully and masterfully shot, the soundtrack was awesome, and it's super well written, each of every characters didn't even have time to introduce their backstory but it didn't matter cause what matters is the situation in the film that are much more important for the audience to care about and i think that's a right decision and it works perfectly, so do the rest of the film, i was just amazed on how good Civil War was, the execution in every scene, the dialogue, the set, and of course the performances was perfect, i would be mad if Civil War didn't get any recognitions in the Oscar next year, it's so good, overall Civil War is easily one of the best films of the year, second best films of the year so far, one of the most fascinating project i've seen this year, a Masterpiece filled content from a simple product.

Ghosts (1996)
8/10
A Well Enough And Enjoyable Enough, Short Film, And I Really Like It, I Think It's Great, Unique, Original, And Creative
28 April 2024
8.5/10 It's weird and what an interesting concept, it's what Thriller would've be if it's made to a full short film, but it's the Ghosts version, who's ever doubted a Michael Jackson choreography, it's always amazing, the decision for Jackson's to also play the mayor with all of the great prosthetic makeup, and i think the most impressive thing was his deep voice to portray the mayor, and damn can he still move with all of that fake body fat, the haunted house was pretty cool, sure the special effects sometimes was not the best but sometimes it did look cool, and overall i think Jackson's work for this short film did well enough and enjoyable enough, and i really like it, i think it's great, unique, original, and creative.

Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver Was An Ok And Entertainingly Enough Action Packed Film
28 April 2024
I think the most important thing when you want to critic a movie is to be fair, and i'm here just being fair and straight honest that i actually quite enjoy Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver, and i know a lot of people hated it, and that's without saying that the movie was indeed not without it flaws, lots of flaws from the performances, the story, some sequences, and the bad special effects/CGI in most of the part, i must say that the film has just way more than enough to actually entertained me the whole time, compare to my experience with the first movie which i also didn't hate but i was still not a big fan of it, i was really bored in the middle of that film, and in this one i just have a better time and especially for a 2 hours film, the build up scene was more than enough for me to enjoy, and the whole action packed was pretty enjoyable to see for the most part, it was all more than enough, it wasn't amazing but it wasn't terrible, and that's why i appreciate it more and ended up in the positive note, there is still a thing that i don't like, but the whole movie overall i thought that Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver was an ok and entertainingly enough action packed film, and it was better than the first one in my opinion.

Mad Max 2 Was Just A Mid Adventure Film With Weak Execution
27 April 2024
6.5/10 Lots of potential here, as the Mad Max world was already filled with this many interesting aspects with not a lot of things going on but i feel like that's the magic of Miller's creation world, Mad Max 2 is a ton of potential that didn't get quite a satisfying execution in my opinion compare to the first one, i think the story, the new characters, and the new villain are all have their interesting potential and that's what i feel throughout the film and i must say that i quite intrigued by it and quite excited for the execution, but again all of them was mostly potential of something that could've been even greater stuff just like the first one, after the movie ends i can conclude that Mad Max 2 was just a mid adventure film with weak execution, just weak execution of a great potential is what Mad Max 2 is for me, it wasn't bad, there is still a lot of great aspects in it but storywise it was just ok and disappointingly executed.

Mad Max (1979)
10/10
It's A Great Revenge Story Full Of Hearts And Personality, It's Definitely One Of The Best Revenge Film I've Seen
9 April 2024
It's a great revenge story full of hearts and personality, Mad Max was incredibly exciting, incredibly depth surprisingly, and very well executed, i think not only Mel Gibson but truly all the cast and the characters including the villain, Toecutter and his members, just what a menacing and terrifying villain antagonist they were, the love story between Max and Jesse was really meaningful somehow, the intensity and the danger tension was there, and basically everything in this movie works really well, George Miller was a genius to make this film with this very low budget and minimal set and all the simple film property, showed you that the budget doesn't matter as long as you have this incredibly written story in your script, i love Mad Max, overall it's definitely one of the best revenge film i've seen, it's short, straight to the point, and everything works.

Ritual (2012)
7/10
A Pretty Good Movie, Despite The Major Flaws I Still Have To Appreciate And Admit The Great Stuff That Still Exist Mostly In The Film
8 April 2024
7.5/10 Modus Anomali is actually an easy 8 and 9 material for me, but what kept me away from it was Rio Dewanto acting in this movie that i don't think was good, i mean the decision from Joko Anwar to make it an English spoken language film with local actors was unnecessary for me but i think as long as the local actors could still played it well then it shouldn't be a problem, but everytime Rio Dewanto start talking i just couldn't stand it, i'm sure he's a good actor with his local language but he just still not felt natural with his English yet, same thing with his son actor, but the rest of the cast was actually doing fine surprisingly, it's too bad that the main actor was the one that flawed, although at the same time i think his physical acting was great, and that's what he's mostly doing in this movie so at least there's that, again overall i think Modus Anomali was another pretty solid story that Joko Anwar offers, an intense, brutal, mind playing film fills with great set and good camera work, i felt the tension and everything, and props for Joko Anwar for the writing credits too with the interesting twist that happen in the movie, basically avoiding making the film as another typical intense survival experience, so overall Modus Anomali was still a pretty good movie and despite the major flaws i still have to appreciate and admit the great stuff that still exist in the film as it mostly what's in the film, i also just wish they use the Indonesian language instead as i really sure it could've been a better movie.

A Very Interesting Piece Of Story That Deserve To Be Told And Pretty Well Made Documentary Overall Too
5 April 2024
Even i can feel the tension in that room that night, The Greatest Night In Pop succeed to captures not only just the magic and even though it's not all, and i wish it did, i mean who actually minded to not seeing this stacked superstar making one song in a day for hours and hours, but the documentary also captured the struggle and like i mention earlier the tension, but then again the heartwarming intension behind it, the knowing about most of these artist later on, it's pretty emotional and mesmerising to see, it definitely would made the song now even more and more powerful and meaningful not only because of the message of the song, but the making of the song is i think not less interesting than the message of the song itself, i think The Greatest Night In Pop was a very interesting piece of story that deserve to be told and pretty well made documentary overall too.

Surprisingly And Actually Delivers A Solid, Entertaining, And Epic Of A Sequel
2 April 2024
8.5/10 I mean you can't lie that everytime all of these monsters are on the screen it was just epic, and what fascinating me the most in this one is how good of a execution Adam Wingard made to these monsters characters that even the scene with only the monsters are very good and really working, the personality build works very well and that is the one aspects i appreciate the most, and while some of the flaws are still from the human aspects, they are not boring and that's the most important, i actually can say that i still like all the human characters, just some flaws execution, and some CGI and special effects could get a bit distracting, this is a Kong movie to me in terms of who supports who, just like Godzilla Vs Kong but i'm more on the Godzilla side on that one, in this one the team up, the rematch, and the final battle was pretty awesome, and while i do still like Godzilla Vs Kong more with the reason that it such an event at the time and somehow i'm more connected to the human more on that, the execution was better, and again i feel like they actually even cut the human part even more in this one, also the final battle between Godzilla Vs Kong was just uncompetetable, overall in what most people would think a cash grab and forced continuation story, and that might be the case but as long as it delivers, and now i see the result, Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire surprisingly and actually delivers a solid, entertaining, and epic of a sequel.

Despite The Flaws, Next Goal Wins Was Still A Pretty Good Movie And Highly Entertaining Film
31 March 2024
7.5/10 It's one of those movies that in terms of the movie itself it was flaws and not perfect and not like amazing and different, but it's the entertaining value of it that makes me still ended up loving it, and that's basically Next Goal Wins and the better thing is it was overall still a pretty good movie, i guess you kinda always expected more from a Taika Waititi movie especially his filmmaking style, and his decision to not go fully there with Next Goal Wins was pretty disappointing, as i think everybody's agree that even though this film was a true event story, it's still felt like every other sports film, but i think what makes me still really appreciating it is of course the characters, they're are real enjoyable and thoughtful character, and especially Michael Fassbender in which he really did a good job in this one, it's a fast paced entertaining film, Next Goal Wins was an easy one to watch, little bit of heavy serious aspects and surprisingly works, i just have a good time with it mostly, and despite the flaws, Next Goal Wins was still a pretty good movie and highly entertaining film.

Shin Godzilla (2016)
5/10
It's Cool At Times, But It's Boring For The Most Part
24 March 2024
My experience with Shin Godzilla is basically the same when i watch the 2014 Godzilla movie, two boring movie, different problem, my problem with Shin Godzilla is just how inconsistent between the dialogue and the event of the film, the conflict that i felt too complicated to tell, makes me bored, the Godzilla model was cool, i did felt the threat, and that's good enough, but it's too bad that they have to fill this again too complicated dialogue and the unbalanced between what should they show next instead of talking, talking, and talking about something that i understand, and they could shorted down, but why stretch it too hard?, again i love the special effects in the film, the acting was not bad, i like some of the editing, the threat and the tension was there, and the rest of the film that i still appreciate, but still overall the film was just wasn't working for me, it's cool at times, but it's boring for the most part.

I Expected To Be Fun Even In The Most Cheesy Way, But It Turn Out To Be One Of The Worst Movie Of The Year
22 March 2024
At least i already expect Madame Web to be awful, but this one i at least expected to be fun even in the most cheesy way, but it turn out to be one of the worst movie of the year, i hate Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire for the most part, and the movie actually start very good and creative with a little bit of event flashback in the year of 1904, and after i watch the whole movie i wish i watch the 1904 plot instead, it is exhausting to watch this 115 minutes film with 90% of it just fills with a lazily and boringly written dialogue, with again boring new side character, a new human ghost character that i don't care at all, cringe cheesy dialogue, it's a complete opposite of fun basically is what i felt for the most of the film, even the original cast couldn't help, it's boring, it's lazy, it's stupid, and it didn't excited me like the previous one (Ghostbusters: Afterlife) which i found surprisingly delightful and emotional continuation, the pacing and editing was bad, there's like 3 million shot of New York City building, i guess the special effects was fine, i like the first 15 minutes, the final battle was ok although again felt rush and still pretty boring, the acting was ok, and i guess in the middle of that whole atrocities there wasn't like a completely awful sequence, it's just mostly boring and uninteresting, i don't know, i'm just being defenseful somehow, and that's it, overall i will still forever see Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire as that one case where somehow Bustin' ghost just doesn't makes me feel good, it makes me bored instead.

An Ok Finish Of A Trilogy, But It Definitely Could Be Better
21 March 2024
Possibly the most emotional Planet Of The Apes yet i felt quite underwhelmed by it, and i still like a lot of things from it, the CGI of course was outstanding, i think Woody Harrelson was a menacing villain, the new characters are good, and Caesar life was really on the line here and i can feel every single pain, the heavy emotional weight in this movie absolutely works, and mostly i still dig the story, although i feel like it just wasn't the best story to finish a trilogy, and the pacing i feel a bit too slow, i must admit i did get a bit bored towards the end, but if you expected a spectacular big war between the human and the Apes, well you will be disappointed, as i feel like the word "War" in the title was more of like Escaping the War and try to survive rather than a straight War between the two tribes, again i don't think it was bad, it was still good for the most part, maybe i like it better after rewatch, but as for now, overall War For The Planet Of The Apes was not a bad movie, it's good for the most part, and in terms of technical aspects it was incredible, but storywise might not be the best and little problem with the pacing, so overall it was an ok finish of a trilogy, but it definitely could be better.

Delivers A Better Story, A Better Technical Aspects Than The Previous One, And Incredible Sequel Overall
19 March 2024
Possibly the best animal motion capture movie i've ever seen, with this i can say that the Planet Of The Apes movie was really something special, i am more than convince that the way i see Caesar and the rest of the Apes now as really something that are absolutely serious possibly more than the human, and it's crazy when you think about it, nothing has more personality input to these animal characters better than the Planet Of The Apes franchise, this big emotional weight for these characters, and Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes is possibly the best one so far, it's frustrating, it's terrifying, the terror was somehow even worse and scarier compare to the previous one, props to not only Andy Serkis but Toby Kebbell as Koba, the supporting cast was great, and the CGI was way better than the previous one which is one of my problem with the previous one, Caesar was indeed slowly became more grown and as long as the human still exist he sometimes still give his respect to the good human and they still showing that in here in which i found great, overall Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes delivers a better story, a better technical aspects than the previous one, and incredible sequel overall, an achievement for sure in terms of an animal motion capture film.

A Good Enough Beginning For The Next Wild Big Long Story
18 March 2024
A first part of a wild big long story, i think in 104 minutes runtime what fascinating is that i felt every characters personality in this movie pretty well already especially Caesar, Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes is pretty straight forward again with just a short amount of time i think people had already enough to get what's coming next, James Franco and the rest of the supporting cast was good, the tension, the danger, and the warning sign was really well captured and i felt it, it's pretty scary and terrifying and more when you think it's absolutely possible to happen in real life, the problem that i have with the film was the CGI in all the animal can look too soft and not quite finish, the texture of the skin could look not that smooth and real, but sometimes it can still looks better, nit picky here and there, but overall Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes was still a good enough beginning for the next wild big long story of Caesar and the extinction of human, and i bet it's gonna be even scarier and hopefully better in terms of film.

Flawed But Still Pretty Good Overall
15 March 2024
7.5/10 I really appreciate the different approach to the story from Tim Burton's as i really think this Planet Of The Apes remake was pretty good overall, but what lacking the most i think was that because i believe this is a pretty straight forward movie, it happens pretty quickly to the conflict that i felt what lacking the most was the characters development, i do felt in the first half of the movie there is not much of a personality in the characters specifically Tim Roth and Helena Bonham Carter characters, Thade i found quite annoying instead of terrifying in the first half until at the end i can admit that he was basically a mad ape, and Ari was just not as good of a character or sweet of a character as Dr. Zira in the original even if they didn't want to make her like it, but it's not like i hate the characters, they just flawed characters, and i'm finally fine with them towards the end, including the story which i thought again not as clever as the original but i still really enjoyed it and in fact the best thing about the movie, i like the makeup and the costume design, i like Mark Wahlberg in the film, Tim Burton's Planet Of The Apes remake takes on a very different but still interesting take on the story, flawed but still pretty good overall.

Besides Being Surprisingly Great And Entertaining, It Is Also One Of The Best Production Film Ever Made
14 March 2024
It is far from silly than you might think when you pictured a 60s movie about a human stuck in the future when an ape now in control, because i found the 1968 Planet Of The Apes movie surprisingly great, i was surprisingly really invested to the story, surprisingly good in terms of performances, makeup, set and design, literally if you think about it, this is probably the most effort Planet Of The Apes film that we could ever get and the rest of the original franchise because they did not rely on a single special effects at all except the space background in the beginning, all practical and all works really well, again the most surprising thing watching this film is how i really invested to the story and most importantly the characters of the film, the unexpected emotional aspects that i wasn't ready at all, overall Planet Of The Apes (the 1968 version) besides being surprisingly great and entertaining, it is also one of the best production film ever made.

It's Another Good Example Of A Great Trial Film
12 March 2024
Very Intriguing and very good indeed, and while there is only one section of the film that i don't particularly interested, the rest of Anatomy Of A Fall is basically the type of trial movie that i really really like, a long and well crafted trial with a very good intriguing and interesting case that kept me in and also in every each dialogue that spoken, i was into it the whole time, i was amazed the whole time by the dialogue and of course the performances by all the cast especially Sandra Hüller, the characters development, compare to her other Oscar nominated film The Zone Of Interest which almost an hour shorter than this, Anatomy Of A Fall felt 5 times faster and i did not feel bored at all, it's another good example of a great trial film with some very powerful performances in it, very intriguing cases, and good emotional characters development, well done.

It's Literally A Movie About A Real Life Person That Has No Interesting Story To Put Into Film At All
10 March 2024
I like a lot of things in The Zone Of Interest from the performances, the music, the production design and set, the cinematography, and i must say that the first 40 minutes of the film i was really into the story, until i realise that the rest of the film and the story was becoming more flatter and blander and quite boring as i found no big conflict that happening in the film and nothing really interesting anymore, i get the background of it and so what, what was becoming the main danger and the big conflict of the film is what missing and what i've been waiting the whole movie, although again the film fills with great performances, great editing, great set, very haunting score and music, in technical aspects it was great, but the film couldn't find and put a main interesting conflict that i hope i was also get into as i was really into the film in the first 40 minutes, it's literally a movie about a real life person that has no interesting story to put into film at all, the message in the background was clear, but the main face of the story was empty, overall The Zone Of Interest in terms of technical aspects and acting they nailed it, but in terms of story it was pretty disappointing.

8.5/10 Nothing more fascinating than seeing this bizarrely beautiful world of Poor Things, Yorgos Lanthimos most artistic and aesthetic films he's made so far in terms of how the movie looks, very unique technique of cinematography in a lot of scene, the score full of this weird out of tune sound that fits so perfectly for the film, technically speaking overall Poor Things has some really genius looks and technical aspects of film, storywise i feel like the story but more of a adventure full of bizarreness of Bella Baxter was one of the most weirdly intriguing story of a person tell in a 142 minutes of film, and while i do agree that Emma Stone and Mark Ruffalo performance was incredible, Willem Dafoe was on something else in this film, his great scary makeup and his personal character was so good, i wish he has a bit more screen time, overall i really do enjoyed Poor Things in both story and technical aspects but not without it flaws towards the end where i felt a bit too long, and one new short plot at the end that i found unnecessary and it happens pretty fast it became felt pretty random, lot's of things that i really like with Poor Things still overall, a weirdly entertaining 142 minutes of acid trip with some great performances, great technical aspects, and great characters development.
