When you think about it acting itself is a form of lying.

Thinking about it some more, I think "woke" specifically as used by chuds means the same thing as "bro" specifically used by centrists: a nigh-involuntary interjection used when someone thinks they know better or are more moral than you. Whether they actually do or are is incidental.

NOPE had some really well-shot scenes that were tense as hell, in particular the chimp massacre and the scene where the protagonist is trapped in his truck at night, and a nice supporting role for Michael Wincott, but overall I didn't think it was great

it felt like all the pieces were there but it wasn't put together right

I just laugh thinking about it because in order to shoot it in Seattle they shut down blocks and moved homeless out of the way. they also had portable toilets everywhere for the set hands which was an added lol.

Seriously, just griping to gripe. It ain't, like, the Nobel Prize here, no one gives a gently caress that the honor of being on A.O. Scott's Top 10 list was denied to whatever movies you liked this year.

I also found the underlying message of Nope to be also really confused and contradictory (much like us). every step of the way, we're told that animals should be treated with respect, shouldn't be treated as vehicles for fame and attention and are much more - and more dangerous - than simple tools. but at the end them killing and taking a picture of the monster is portrayed as this heroic event, complete with orchestral music and a character feared dead turning out to be alive. And, yes, I know it's also a (not exactly original) parable about fame and Hollywood, but it's also clearly interested in the phenomenon of dangerous animals in media, and I found that specific message particularly confused.

peele has some interesting ideas but actually sticking the landing isn't his best skill. don't really get why everyone sees him as this visionary director when everything he's done besides get out! and key and peele is very confused and overly ambitious.
