Secretly a perfect She-Hulk What If story

That bit at the very beginning cracked me up, long live original pictures!

Thank you Dan for acknowledging that moment when Stewart makes that dramatic pause during the phone call scene. I really do appreciate those acting choices from a performance.

Saw it last week. It blew my mind 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 For its funky tone the story has simple narrative structure. Each character was well developed and acted. Would be interested in seeing more movies from this director 👍

Dan I just have to say it's always refreshing to get your fair, level-headed takes on movies. Places like this on the internet seem to be fewer and far between, so thank you for continuing the work of making and fostering an environment of rationality while still being honest about what you're covering!

Stewart and Pattinson both have had some very challenging and bold movie choices since Twilight. For all the hate those movies got, I feel like they were over them just as much as everyone else. Also…as a wrestling fan…we need to get a Chyna biopic with Katy O’Brian stat! Keep her and the Iron Claw team in the A24-verse and get it made!

Love Lies Bleeding -What? -The muscle mommy movie -Oh

A mom and her daughter in my auditorium got up and left just 10 mins into the movie. The mom clearly wasnt expecting the level of "action" in the movie.

Love the start Dan, hilarious. Great review, it's released over here in the UK 3rd May, same as The Fall Guy. Poster quote from Dan - "Two people f**k and figure it all out later" Looking forward to seeing Katy O'Brian in Twisters in July.

Moo~om! Dan just dropped an F bomb!

I saw it last night and I loved it. That third act! just wow!!!!! I wasn't expecting it to be so good honestly. I highly recommend folks give it a watch!

Saw it last night and really enjoyed it! Was interested to see what Glass was going to do after Saint Maud and this did not disappoint.

Really annoys me living in the UK because it takes so long for these smaller budget movies to come to our cinemas. This isn't out till May 3rd here. By the time they're released they're already streaming in the US.

Dan, I was not prepared to hear you say “fu*k” at 10am 😂😂. I like it!

I felt that same way. I really liked it but I'm still having an issue compartmentalizing the creative choices to the greater whole. The theater I went to gave plenty of comparisons to Saltburn.

Great review Dan! Just got out the theater, I loved it. So many thoughts & feels

If and when they make a Streets of rage movie Katy O'Brian should be blaze

Saint Maude was an incredibly impressive debut film. I was really interested in that and it got lost from my mind for a while after the delays from 2020 but I finally got around to both it and The Green Knight last year and while I enjoyed both of them, I watched Saint Maude a second time the next night. It's deeply interesting and is a fulfilling second watch. Also one of my favorite endings in years.

I haven’t seen Katy O’Brian in many movies except that she was a proper standout in this episode of The Mandalorian, originally meant for the New Republic series. I know that sounds strange, but she plays the character super convincingly, in this sort of sci-fi neo-noir short story of an episode, ik ppl hated it becuz it wasn’t Mandalorian action, but by itself it was very engaging and she was noticeably fantastic. Glad to see she’s doing great with a leading role

This was such a good movie! I knew it would be gritty, but I had no idea just how hard it would go. I was pleasantly surprised.

You broke it down great as usual, Dan - but truthfully, that trailer really had me hooked. It's got that 'At Close Range' feel... like you know something is going wrong fast, but you really aren't sure just what or why that is. Definitely going to check it out🙂.

Just saw it today and really liked it. It's definitely worth checking out and I'm glad to see Katy O'Brian getting some more stand out roles.

Oooh this sounds good! Hopefully I'll get a chance to see it in theatres

Literally just got back from the theater. I loved it. ❤

A24’s She-Hulk

This one is easily gonna be a top one for me looking back this year. Love the moody lighting, the strong score, the solid character work and Ed Harris and whatever is going on with his looks. Indeed the lust stuff made me realize just how much it can be helpful to character when it's done right, and only reinforces my own view against the idea of taking that kind of thing out in movies when it isn't a hard thing to do right.

Cant wait to watch this! Will ba awhile though (Germany June 5)

Thanks Dan

I just got back from it. Pretty solid! Franco plays sleezy so well and dan is right about baryshnakov.

I only started hearing about this movie a couple of weeks ago, but everything I've heard makes me wanna find and see this movie sometime in the upcoming week.

Thanks for reviewing this. Was hoping you'd cover this. Will you be seeing the movie, Hundreds of Beavers?

saw it at it's uk premiere a few weeks ago and really liked it

My review Background - When a reclusive gym manager Lou falls for an aspiring bodybuilder Becky their love story sets in motion a chain of deadly and catastrophic events. Completing the circle are Lou's sister Beth, her abusive husband JJ, Daisy another girl who is interested in Lou and finally Lou's father who is a gun smuggler. Likes - This is great movie. A tragic love story in the neo-noir background. Its very well written performed and acted. Not only does the movie have the right tone and screenplay, the technical values like the cinematography and back ground score are great. The dialogue is natural and once it gets going the movie never gets its foot of the paddle. Dislikes - None. I just could not find a flaw in this movie. Final Thoughts - Love Lies Bleeding reminds you of the all time great Coen's brother classic The Big Lebowski. And while that is a comedy movie and is too idiosyncratic and clever to be matched , Love Lies Bleeding is tragic and blunt. But the spontaneity and story telling style is as intense yet natural as that movie. Definitely a contender for Best Actress, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Cinematographer, Background Score and obviously Best Picture. Somebody has to really give a memorable performance to beat Kristen Stewart in Best actress category. But editing and cinematography and background scores will require some really special work to beat this movie. And while Katy Brian may not win an acting award I must say I have not seen a physique like that. I hope it was not computer generated. But that was really an extraordinary physique. It reminded me of tennis player Gabriela Sabatini. The masculinity was similar. My rating is 8.5. This movie will be a future cult classic.

Do they needle drop Love Lies Bleeding in Love Lies Bleeding

I’m excited for a new Rose Glass Movie! 🍿

Bound meets Promising Young Woman. Or rather yet, Love Lies Bleeding takes the page out of the movie, Fargo. I enjoyed the movie. But Ed Harris. The Oscars need to take notes next year because Ed Harris really needs that Oscar so bad. He was nominated many years ago, but didn’t get the recognition he deserves.

Looks interesting! Live the gritty aesthetic

I loved this movie. Love the music. I gotta watch again.

Good point about lust being rarely portrayed like this in film, especially among women. I loved that the queer characters could exist without it all being about their orientation and that they were allowed to have a sexuality as well as a whole life in this movie outside of that. Great movie, I'm so excited about Rose Glass's future.

Yes

6:53 The rare non-Dan Rant F-bomb 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Saw a pre-screening and I loved it! *mild spoilers* I was a little taken out by the fantastical elements in the last 5minutes, and how it alters the films look on PED use. Otherwise brilliant !

Nice open as always

I saw it last night. I keep thinking about it.

This movie was great, so interesting, shocking and entertaining. Need to check out St Maud next.

I like this review especially because Dan gets Kristen Stewart and her career. I've been looking forward to this movie since the first trailer and I will definitely be seeing it this weekend.

Later today I'm going to see lies love bleeding and I'm bisexual

is that a Hot Toys 1/6 scale Batmobile in the background??

Just got back from watching this, SOOO GOOD. I'm ready to watch it again 😩

love you dan

Saw it last night! Amazing! Superb performances and a total mindf**k. Loved it. Glad you enjoyed it too.

Enjoyed this film a lot.

Hi, Dan. Have you seen the video “The Visual Effects of Godzilla Minus One”? I want to know where all the money goes in these big budget lower quality films. Could the American audience be concerned about the perceived inefficiency of their VFX industry and how it might be viewed by audiences worldwide each year?

Hi Dan! I think this is the first time that I've "heard" you swear. I think as long as you don't use swears in the first 5 minutes & last 5 minutes, you don't get demonetized, but it's so like your online persona to bleep it out.🤣

Great video!

Hellooo dan!❤❤❤ did u just say lust?? Im in with this movie then

My wife has been saying that Jenna Malone looks just like Kristen Stewart. Jenna playing the sister will make her so happy

Great sound design and score. Overall, similar vibes as the Titane movie.

Thought it was very good . Not as polished as Saint maud for me. But very good I got an early Coen’s vibe from it myself . Excellent performances across the board , another winner from Rose Glass looking forward to see where she goes next .

Yeah they blamed everything on the steroids... but trust me I've been managing gyms for years and that was a extremely exaggerated version of roid rage lol. However, O'Brian's physique was accurate af, I kept wondering if that was a body double, or if she had to get in that shape for the role and well it turns out she is legitimately into bodybuilding lol

It’s fine to not bad

Dan I didn’t know how much I would like hearing you say the word lust. Say it again.

I think it’s a mistake katy o brian wasn’t cast as abby in last of us season 2

Loved this movie! Saw it last night !!

I'm excited to go see this next week. Getting over a cold 🤧 I really wish Katy got cast as Abby in the future seasons of The Last of Us.

One of my favorite movies I have seen in years.

I really enjoyed this one. So many movies out lately.

I found Kristen Stewart’s acting in the final third of this film to not be up to the emotional task that it called for, and it actively pulled me out of anything the movie wanted me to feel. I don’t know if I would have liked the movie more if there was a different actress providing a different performance, but I think it would have had more of a chance.

Daisy was soooo thirsty!

I really enjoyed this movie

Damn wow that's the second time I've heard Anna Berishkivov called out for this role and I seriously don't get it or see it lol

Fantastic film!

Best opening!!

In my Top Ten Best Films this year; fer sure.

I had a total blast with it!! Sex, violence, and vibes. Felt like a long lost 80s cult classic!

First lesbian 😊

Great opening 😂

Issa classic

Daron Aronofsky should be proud. Like a love child of Requiem for a dream.

Dan with the F bomb! 10/10!

What was with that ending?? Was that real or was she just tripped out

That ending definitely took me out of it although I loved the vast majority of the film. Just went wayyy too abruptly A24 in that final climatic scene which I felt was so unnecessary. Take out that A24 whimsical scene and let the story play out naturally and this would be a solid 90-95%.

I was into 98% of this movie, but I found the second outlandish scene to be fucking stupid for two reasons: that's where the film veered wildly into wierdness that it took me out of it, and it was far too obvious a metaphor. So, it falls into "good, but not great" for me. On a brighter note, the best part about seeing it was watching this older couple get so horrified from what they were seeing that they got up and left the theater very early in.

I didn't care for the ending, but I enjoyed the ride overall

Thumbnail had me thinking this movie wasn’t going to be good. Great overview, movie seems to be what I was thinking it’d be. Really not much reason to watch any other supposed film review channel on KZfaq. Edit: finally saw it.. wasn’t a fan, literally the “lust” parts were the best parts &.. that’s not a good thing imo. It felt like that was the focus & everything else was just needed in order to call it a movie

Gnarly violence is never considered as vulgar to Americans as nudity. lol So weird

💥

A very umm…..interesting movie.

It's a lesbian drama ... zoomers: Yay! ... with lots of sex and nudity. also zoomers: Booo!

10/10 🎉❤

Well acted but the story isn’t that good to me…and some of fantastical moments are ehhhh…I don’t know what they add to the movie…too many times I feel like we look at movies with this give me anything creative and I’ll clap…but should be entertaining as the focus for me

Your country brother

Isnt this the lyric to a Fuel somg?

Best film❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

KS should have played Ellie from “The Last of Us”

I just saw this tonight. Brilliant movie. Completely agree with your review. You articulate so much better than me why this film is so great. Also your intro was hilarious. Thank you Dan!

Not bad, I'd put it in the It's fine plateau. But I have to say the ending is laughable.

Anyone here from the famous BIFFF screening?

👍👍👍

I wonder what the film, Gay Bros did wrong to not connect with audiences as much as this film does.
