Shit film.
>Brad Pitt acting like a fricking millennial.
>Pretty stupid plot that doesn't get more original than a cliche.
>Characters acting out of character to favor other characters with plot armor.
>"Wymin are strong" corporate cliche to gain social approval points.
>Bad star cameos.
>Hiroyuki Sanada playing the old man side character for the 1094385 time.
>Overall acting from the cast is weak.
>God is a "she".
>Bad CGI.
Fricking Bad Bunny was surprisingly really good playing as The Wolf. Would've enjoyed the film more if they didn't kill him 2 mins after showing up. After that the plot went downhill, and the only interesting characters were the The Twins.
Anyway, it's enjoyable if you turn your brain off. 4/10.

It's a funny movie, though if white death died with his Russian roulette it would've been funnier
Holy shit that would've been genius
That would have been hilarious indeed. Then they could have reworked the ending to have his daughter as the final boss.
>>"Wymin are strong" corporate cliche to gain social approval points.
Where was that in the movie?
I think he’s talking about “Princess” who has an inferiority complex and main character syndrome. She also dies a pathetic ignominious death.
White Death's daughter pretty much acting like a manipulative b***h that never gets what's coming to her until the very end. And even then it feels like an afterthought.
Also, The Hornet lady going toe to toe with Brad Pitt on hand to hand combat was laughable.
That isn't really "wymin are strong" sterotype. That is women are manipulative. This is the stereotype women villains had since forever.
>That is women are manipulative. This is the stereotype women villains had since forever.
We never had female villains where the plot tried to convince you that somehow they're the victims, and therefore their actions are justifiable. It's feels like gaslighting.
>Tried to convince you that somehow they're the victims
That didn't happen in this movie either. You are told right off that she is the villain and you aren't really given her motivation till the end.Did you guys even actually watch this movie?
>you aren't really given her motivation till the end
She says right off the bat her name is The Prince because her dad wanted a boy. She also kill her own brother out of envy. It's pretty fricking clear what her motivations are, you just weren't paying attention or the plot is that forgettable.
None of what you wrote is trying to turn her into a good guy. I feel like you need meds or something.
Whether or not she's good or evil isn't what you're arguing there buddy. Your argument was that we never knew what her motivations were, so we couldn't judge her. And I'm telling you that she says it right off the bat, her whole character is explained right then and there. I even go as far as giving you the benefit of the doubt for not remembering.
You are trying to claim that the movie tried to make her the victim by giving you these tib bits of information.
>So we couldn't judge
Never said that. You find out right away that she is going to kill her father and is willing to kill a kid and some random guy to do it. It's not exactly. Unless you are dumb it was pretty clear she wasn't a victim from the moment you met the character. The only way you would think that is if this was your first movie.
If this was my first move I would be attacking any form of criticism like a moron.
Her character is badly written because of too much plot armor that kills suspense, which is the only thing that drives a story. They try to sell her as being embittered for being discriminated as a woman, but there's better ways to pull off the exact same thing without trying to appeal for a feminist message.
For example, I would've killed her character at the hands of Lemon shortly after she manipulates Ladybug into killing Tangerine, while leaving her tampered gun around for the exact same outcome at the climax. That would've delivered some sort of satisfaction and proper ending to her without overstaying too much, which is what it feels like. The death by truck is stupid for a movie constantly talking about fate, doesn't matter if the truck shows at the beginning, it's not a "smart" resolution.
>They try to sell her as being embittered for being discriminated as a woman, but there are better ways to pull off the exact same thing without trying to appeal for a feminist message.
This isn't true at all and that the point. Everything you read into this is all baseless.
Agree to disagree then Black person. Good for you if you enjoyed the movie more than me.
>We never had female villains where the plot tried to convince you that somehow they're the victims, and therefore their actions are justifiable. It's feels like gaslighting.
But this movie never did that. It clearly showed that she's just a little sociopath and Brad Pitt's character joked about her having borderline personality disorder before she was killed in a gruesome manner.
It always is, I’m just glad he won. At least there’s that.
>Main villain doesn't get what's coming to them until the end
Yes that's how movies work. However, she falters early when Lemon figures her out but is saved by coincidence, and then her master plan is completely defeated by her dad deeming her insignificant. Also, the entire motive being "Didn't get enough attention from daddy" is pretty misogynistic, which is great.
>Hornet going toe to toe
Barely. The choreography goes on until she drops the vax, then he immediately stuck it into her with no resistance, and then stole her antidote with no resistance. To me it makes it seem like he was holding back. She also gets the worst death and is even concern trolled as she dies. There's very little woman power to be found.
>but is saved by coincidence
That's when things go to shit. You can keep defending this shit, but it only tells me you're too feminized to know the difference from shit and good writing. The fact that the plot completely ignores her until the climax just shows whoever wrote this crap didn't really care about her as a compete character, just as a full stereotype.
That's an issue of the editing which shows up in multiple places. Ladybug vs the Wolf for instance, they meet then 10 minutes later they actually fight.
Dunno why you're sperging out when I never claimed the movie was a masterpiece, just pointed out that girl power isn't really a thing that is lauded in the movie.
It's a dumb fun movie that soulless people don't seem to enjoy, which is a shame.
morons are so poisoned by modern culture they'll find whatever bugaboo they want in just about everything, even when it doesn't exist. Bullet Train was most definitely not a GURL POWER movie and all of the softy shit was if anything taking the piss.
Some autismo sperged out on me the other day because I didn't stay to watch the mid-credits scene where the fat black guy was driving the tangerine truck that killed her. As if that made her unsatisfying demise any better.
I'll sperg on you some more.
The tangerine truck is a bookend, it shows up at the start to prove Ladybug's bad luck, and then at the end to disprove her good luck. Even without the extra credits info that it wasn't luck but fate, it still serves as a satisfying end if you're paying attention.
Based autism anon. Judging by the ferocity of your post the other day I knew you'd still be here and would pipe up if I mentioned (You).
I'm not discounting your argument but for me and I guess a couple other anons in here, it fell flat on an emotional level. For me, I knew 100% that b***h would get hit by a car at the end once old Japanese man said she'd get what's coming to her. That's always how they do it, and no different here. I was hoping for something different, and more gruesome to be honest given how big of a little c**t she was. Lemon deserved better.
>feel flat on the emotional level
Not every movie has to be made for the Oscars.
>it fell flat on an emotional level
Yea that's fair. The entire movie seems like something that won't click for everyone.
>The Hornet lady going toe to toe with Brad Pitt on hand to hand combat was laughable.
I usually hate this trope, but this scene was fine. She had a lethal injection and was a trained fighter, which I know doesn't mean she would have any chance in an actual fight against a man, but that plus the injection made her an actual threat, so Pitt couldn't just swing his arms at her.
>Also, The Hornet lady going toe to toe with Brad Pitt on hand to hand combat was laughable.
That whole fight was clearly played for laughs and Pitt came out looking like the quicker thinker
Wut? She was as intentionally horrible as possible and my theater cheered when she got run over. You're supposed to feel frustrated at her getting away with it. Are you autistic?
Everyone did feel frustrated by thinking she's getting away with it. It's just that the 10,000th use of this dumb trope for stupid people (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LookBothWays) isn't fulfilling to many people.
I want to suck on Prince's pink nipples while she berates me.
>Brad Pitt acting like a fricking millennial
Doubly weird since he's not even Gen X. He's a literal boomer.
Dude looks young but c'mon. Feels like they just put him as the MC to sell the movie.
>Dude looks young
How's life in 1996 treating you?
They put him in cause Pitt and Leitch have known each other since Leitch was Pitt's stunt double for Fight Club among other films.
I liked it. It was fun. Sue me.
You forrgot the worst part
>whitewashing
Jesus fricking Christ. That too. When they showed the movie was based on a book by a Japanese dude writing about Japanese characters I cringed hard. Frickers deserve the same backlash as the live action Little Mermaid.
Actually? I can't see the plot working with an all-japanese cast. How closely does it follow the book?
WRONG. Audiences want white leads, there is nothing wrong with giving the audience what it wants
I feel like you missed that the movie is a comedy.
Why hire the most Puerto Rican looking fricker to play the role of a Mexican?
you can tell the difference?
He probably can, yes. I'm South american and I can easily differentiate between us. All central americans look the same to me though.
Yeah he's too tall to be a Mexican
Puerto Ricans and other Caribbeans are mostly mulatto, that is mixed with blacks, Europeans and some indigenous. Mexicans on the other hand are mestizos, which is European mixed with indigenous blood. Bad Bunny looks 100% mulatto. It's like hiring a Filipino to play the role of a Japanese.
Absolutely
>too tall
>too lanky
>too fine-featured
>too Black
homie going around with a charro suit felt fricking weird tbh
Frick you homosexual the water bottle scene was kino, me and my brother were cracking up at the theatre
Whoa I bet you guys have some totally sick text threads sharing reddit posts back and forth
Seething only child
i just watched it for delicious joey king.
distracting beak
Post the shot where you see Zazie's DELICIOUS CHOCOLATE THIGHS
Dunno why this movie felt like a Quentin Tarantino movie
>Several disconnected groups converging because of odd happenstance
>White and black criminal duo bantering
>Deaths caused and avoided by pure luck
There's a lot of overlap with Pulp Fiction.
It's rare to find an argument here that's so boring I can barely follow it
that poster alone is enough of a deterrent
Zaz looked so good here. Her and Karen both looked great with blonde hair.
Imagine marrying her lads
Good movie, but killing Tangerine was such a bad decision. It killed all the momentum for the third act and, even if it was an accident, it was impossible to root for Pitt after all.
He was by far my favorite character but I didn't mind his surprise death. You're right though that the rest of the movie suffered for it.
I didn't mind Tangerine's death at first but once you're left with only Brad Pitt to carry the story you can fricking feel T's absence.
Ey titi me preguntó si tengo muchas novias
LMAO HE SAID TITI
Muchas novias, hoy tengo a una, mañana a otra.
Now, let’s follow Patrick’s line of thinking to make sense of it. He doesn’t know what an instrument is. So he’s not asking if mayonnaise fits into the category or being an instrument. He’s testing out his understanding of the word instrument to see if he has it right. Mayonnaise is a sauce, not a food. Instruments make music. Mayonnaise makes food better; instruments make sound better. It’s likely he reasoned mayonnaise could be an instrument since he’s unfamiliar with concepts like condiments, instruments and so on. He used something he knew, and correlated it to the idea of an instrument. That’s why his question is actually really funny and brilliantly written. I still laugh when I think about it
it went too off the rails also what was the deal with all the cameos
It was based on a Japanese book something tells me they should have just made it a Japanese movie with full Japanese cast
terrible take and taste all around. Refrain from making further threads on Cinemaphile
How wet was she ?
