Same, Dredd, Annihilation, Ex Machina, all really good but this looks like shit.
Wait this was made by the guy who made Annihilation? That’s one of my favorite movies the fuck happened here
Maybe a bit of the boomerification of Gen X mixed with proof that auteur theory is bunk lol
Why do you expect someone who is capable of crafting a narrative about personal trauma and the nature of creative work to also necessarily have interesting thoughts about politics?
Yeah we really need to drop this whole "only leftists are creative" shit. People with crap politics can make good art, and on the flip side leftists can be artistically incompetent, look at me! I couldn't write a short story good enough to impress a cockroach!
I’ll be honest I wasn’t thinking any further than “People who make good movies make good movies”
you might like the book even more, check it out. I read it and the two books that follow it before I saw the movie and they have a really unique atmosphere
