really really didn't like it (and I've liked pretty much every other yogurt lanthimos joint). one or two-joke movie stretched to agonizing length. rehashed tim burton garbage aesthetic. one-note supporting characters they did nothing with over 140 mins. totally frictionless / conflict-free - everyone loves bella everywhere she goes and the pathetic men are obviously no match. also a small thing but the "means of production" shit was embarrassingly wrong. I did chuckle at willem dafoe saying "cocaine"

didn't like oppy or barbie either but the trinity test was cool and I get nominating big well-liked event movies even if the america farrera monologue made me want to die

It's not a classic or anything (the whole scenario is pretty op only contrived) but it has some solid laughs, decent performances and doesn't overstay its welcome. Obviously the social commentary is limited/lib AF but that comes with the territory. Sterling K Brown is really good and I'd like to see him get Supporting (to the extent that I care).
