the thing that pisses me off is that you can compare any of them to a better movie and see how much the thing falls apart

like eastern promises has an actual plot and layering of characters
blue ruin has an equally unrealistic plot but bothers to put something identifiable in its antihero so it feels real
even a history of violence puts a sex scene in there

john wick / nobody guy gets real mad about a dog or bracelet or whatever. ohg also hes ex "super duper" secret agent with all the things they need all the time, but don't worry about that part

its never anything more
and theres never any more to it beyond shots of objects you dont think are going to enter someones body entering someone's body


the korean ones are good
