sleeptalker posted:Knives Out was a fun murder mystery and its portrayal of white supremacy perpetuating itself even among the "woke" was pretty good (it even basically posits that it happens by virtue of material relations!), but ultimately its social viewpoint falls short of suggesting anything but meritocratic reform. Who gives a poo poo. It's a fun throwback murder mystery, who cares if it supports your politics? It's a loving murder mystery, the genre invented by bored rich British incest people.

Maya Fey posted:its just a fun murder mystery movie with the same mild social satire you find in the average agatha christie novel Knives Out was fine. My main complaint is that, even as part of a genre known for convoluted murder plots, it had a ridiculous scheme at its center.

The Shape of Water is Del Toro by numbers, it’s a fine movie but I can get someone not being into it. It was certainly better than Pacific Rim.

It's 100% this - if you're a fan of GDT or just like good popcorn flicks it's great, but I remember their first big discussion on it years ago and they all seemed to think it was filled with intentional oscar bait? I never got that vibe. If you liked Hellboy you'll like this.

i like Michael Stuhlbarg but his subplot in Shape of Water was really lame. the Michael Shannon stuff was pretty lame too and I love him. movies have too many subplots these days.

He's had some English language stinkers, and while I wouldn't say Shape Of Water is as bad as Pacific Rim or Blade 2, when Matt described Shape Of Water as all sentiment, I completely understood why he hated it even though I loved it, because I'm a huge sap and the sentiment worked for me.
