Watched this last night. Based on the trailer I misjudged it entirely. It's very good. Incredibly thought provoking.
Those quiet moments since seeing it are filled with the possibilities, consequences and perspectives the film portrays. It's unspecific, distant, mundane and fucking terrifying all in one. Sam Esmail (Mr Robert) has tapped into something that's primal, in what it means to survive in this world. The final scene is devastating, heavy with truth and hopelessness.
- yes it's a great filmhans_glib
- Nicely stated Morning_starRamanisky2
- Interesting, I found the last scene full of hope and a fuck-it, let’s make the best of a shitty situation attitude_niko
- It felt to me like an overture to self-centred entitlement and consumption.Morning_star
- Ross & Rachel truly destroyed the world.Ramanisky2
- My wife said she was troubled that she doesn't know what happens after the end. I said I think they told us exactly what happens. Great film.monospaced
- In the minority here, clearly. I didn't much like it - daft exposition, unlikely character development - it just felt like a bunch of ideas, thrown at a wall.Nairn
- If you are woke, this movie is your wet dream.Hayoth
- Uh oh.
No, sorry - i fucking loved it.Nairn - felt it would have been better without the weird religious under tones.Nutter
- No doubt It has it's faults, the narrative is a bit clunky, the pacing is off, the characters are unlikely. Despite that it's one of the most thought...Morning_star
- ...provoking things i've seen. Different strokes for different folks I guess.Morning_star
- Ross was on ‘a break’ okprophetone
- Lovedthis one.elahon
- I'm with Nairn, I felt the same about the book. Nothing wrong with open endings, but this felt like a lazy way to do that.MrT
- weak film 1/10, iWood not bang.fadein11
- not even mediocre....not any components in it to get enthusiastic about it...neverscared
- lol Nairnfuturefood
- Critics praise this movie for the most part. Cinema-goers, not so much; sailed right over their head.canoe

- “What, are you kiddin me?!?
We got ourselves a faaamly!!”Ramanisky2 - "These blow up into funny shapes at all?"
"Well no, unless round is funny."garbage - ^ lol one of my favorite lines in any movieRamanisky2
- "Son, you've got a panty on your head" Soooo good!elahon
- Lol, yes another classic. Also Nick Cage is running down a street with a panty on his head while cops shoot stolen Huggies out of his hand.garbage
- And there's yodeling. I love this movie because it's live action Looney Tunes.garbage
- “But the doctor explained that her insides were a rocky place where my seed could find no purchase.”Ramanisky2
- +1 garbage – that line!MrT
- I was once dating a girl, and when it came time to rubber up, I quoted that line. She had never seen the movie. Guess who didn't get laid that night.garbage
- ^ that’s too bad .. lolRamanisky2
- To be clear, the mood was killed because deadpanned asked "You've.. never seen Raising Arizona?"garbage
- I'm not a fan of this moviecrazyprick
- And that's why I'd never fuck you.garbage
- "I was once dating a girl" sure, fagcrazyprick
- Oh no, crazyprick called me a fag. My day is ruined by the laziest troll ever. I honestly hope you're a teenager, because otherwise you're just impotent.garbage
- I'm putting my dog down in the next couple days, be sure to call him a fag when I post about it. It would just amplify your insignificance.garbage
- What a faggy responsecrazyprick
- To bring a poor dog into discussion is beyond faggy cuntfuckery. You fucking loser.crazyprick
- Yawn. A child has mocked me, whatever will I do with the rest of my day? Toying with you is actually a good distraction from actual grief.garbage
- An emotion you so wish you were capable of inflicting, but are totally incapable of accomplishing. You've still never given your age, btw.garbage
- “What, are you kiddin me?!?

- It was ok .. it did have one of the best hug scenes in cinematic history.Ramanisky2
- is this like an extended black mirror episode?_niko
- Dumbed down movie for a dumb audience.canoe
- MrT3
Outstanding.
- worth watching but boy it's grim and downbeatGardener
- Sure is. Hard to find the words to recommend something so grim, but it's essential viewing I reckon.MrT
- Son of Saul is much better.crazyprick
- ^ great movie too, but quite a different take. I liked how this film didn’t tell you how to feel about the horror.MrT
- This is a great double feature with Son of Saul. Its the A side and B side, its almost a mirror image.DaveO
- ^ Yes, you have "inside" and "outside" of the horror.crazyprick

- Yeah, it's awful.lemmy_k
- If this is on the TV and I pass it I end up watching the whole thing again so you may have a point.webazoot
- The end isn’t great, which is pretty common in M Night Shyamalan filmsnb
- Intro scenes in nyc are fantastic. Nobody really shooting movies at this quality with this much style anymorenb

- One of the rare cases where the American version is better source material.garbage
- Kubrick masterpieceHAL9001
- Oh an to clarify, I meant the American version as in the book. The US release omitted Chapter 21, in which Alex basically goes "OH WELL, WON'T DO CRIME ANYMORE"garbage
- Kubrick made the right call. Can you imagine how much that would ruin the film if that was the ending?garbage

- ^ they're different points! I love it too but I was referring to the vid cover and it's not that long ago. Classics films can be more recent, I guess.MrT

- love me some sam pekinpah where did you watch this? I've been meaning to see it for a while, going to be my next watch if I can find it_niko
- *cough" torrentsGardener
- Yes! It's so good. I might get some clapback, but I think this is Hoffman's best work by a long shot.garbage
- Also the remake is the cinematic equivalent of shitting yourself at a crowded funeral for somebody you've never even met.garbage
- Superb.MrT
- thanks for the recommendation, so good_niko

Sure someone's posted already, but this really got me emotional recently. Olivia Colman was fantastic and Roger Deakin's cinematography really brought it life. Great soundtrack too.
