    This was impressively bad. Would prob rather watch it again then madame web tho. My screening was packed and people were not happy
     
  4. They took us to court for liking the first one

    One positive is the actor who played Gary Puddles absolutely killed it

    I actually liked the first one too so I was hoping this would have at least been decent. I kept falling asleep

    Ah yes.

    But man, I fucking hate using rape as a motivation for a character’s shift in personality. That’s some lazy Game of Thrones nonsense. And there was nothing to suggest that Gleeson’s character did that.

    Yeah really hated that scene. It made no sense on either side.

    This is the movie that the worst reviews of Megalopolis are actually describing. I think it’s truly that bad. So much money and craft thrown at nothing but terrible decisions
     
  13. Yeah what even was that? Just a gratuitous rape scene? It's also left unclear whether it did or didn't happen. Just odd. At that point in the movie I was dying for it to be over.

    It never really takes off and it's dreadful from the start but from that point on every musical number and courtroom moment was pure torture.

    Like I went in expecting this to be Madame Web-type bad, but it just sucked the life out of me.
     
  14. Yeah this guy broke my heart honestly, only moment in the movie that somewhat moved me.

    This was such a piece of shit. I kind of love that he didn’t just rehash the first film, but wow this is bad.

    Gaga’s last two roles have her tragically underused and miscast.

    Todd Phillips' admiration for GG Allin makes even more sense with this movie than the last one

    I think this kind of corrects a lot of wrongs of the first. The first I think glorifies violence, mental illness, makes him out to be a hero by the end. In this he’s sad and lonely and I think by the final courthouse scene really vulnerable for the first time. And it ends the way the first should have ended, honestly.

    Also think Gaga is great in this, and in a lot more of it than I thought based on what people were saying.
