You missed one other part Abigail did on the island - make the fires. She made a point of asking several times if anyone can fish, anyone can clean and cook the fish, or if anyone can make the fire. No one else could. She did the trifecta of the important work herself.
RIP to Ms. Charibi Dean, who played Yaya. She died at 32 about a month ago. Very sad.
😔
Wow that's quite young, rest in peace 🙏🏽
Wait..the ending of the movie..what a crazy coincidence
The vaccines. RIP
Wow! That's horrible
It's a 3 part Marxist essay, exploring the dynamics of power in 3 scenarios. Part one, the date, is within the same class, and how even then, they are at odds and trying to take advantage for their own gain. The photoshoot section points out how the middle class is complicit in their own subjugation, as they happily and desperately jump through hoops to appeal to those of higher status in the smallest way. Part two, the yacht, is the current, 'normal' world. The super rich are on top as the guests running the show, the middle class are the 'face' staff who handle most of the guest interactions and are super suck up to get money, and then there are the below-deck working class, who keep the ship running behind the scenes. The upper class behave badly, the middle class overly-indulge them when they should say no, leading to disasters, and the working class just clean up their messes to keep things going. Part 3 is the flipped power dynamic after the social 'uprising'. The working class is now in charge, and the middle class switches their loyalties, but ultimately the world reasserts itself and the rich rise back up.
Best explanation
Yes! In the end, Abigal will likely find herself in an even worse situation (jail or dead) than toilet cleaner when she is found out. It's interesting that the middle class perpetuates the madness. I saw this all the time in corporate. It's more than doing their assigned duties, it's also doing the devil's work.
This is the best, on point, straight forward explanation of the entire film. This comment should be pinned.
I appreciate the explanation. I didn’t like the film at all. However your explanation at least makes sense of it.
It's a curse that will endlessly continue until a person just has enough of the system and says "Fuck you, I'll catch my own fish!"
Most of us would never want to be seated with strangers on a Cruise but if I ever did I wish it was Nick and Joseph. XD
The IED IUD bit make me chuckle 🤣
I cannot express enough that this is a must watch film. It’s a five star flick. My favorite of 2022 at this point.
I ended up at 3.5 as well, mostly for Abigail’s scenes. What a rich role for an older Asian actress-and she killed it (literally I’m afraid)
I loved this film so much, such a ridiculous fun time it was great to watch with a big audience. Definitely don't eat before watching tho, act 2 is hilarious but so so gross 😭
Your explanation of the events make me want to watch this movie.
I agree with Richard below, this recap makes me really want to watch. Thank you for the trigger warning about the donkey. That stuff bothers me, I appreciate knowing when I need to cover my eyes and ears!
"In den Wolken" means "in the clouds". Great review!
It's comical to imagine a rich old couple hand making IUD'S. 🤣🤣🤣
I love the way you guys talk about movies and the movies you choose to talk about
I love you guys and your reviews!!! Never miss em
Samples of 'role - reversal' attitudes breaking through from both of you in this story. :) Joseph 's highlight on the "Who am I?" demand, gave me food for thought. But, the going for the donkey scene - and, the 'stink' (of the rich?!) Nick: "decomposition that's always on hand that we're ignoring." Didn't realize this could be an entertaining watch, once :)
LOL - IUD !!!! this sounds super funny - CAN'T WAIT.
I just watched Ostlund's "The Square", and would love to hear your review. If you ever host a Best Foreign Films Live review, what a terrific choice to put on the list. Thank you for the excellent show today.
This movie was so good. I’m glad we’re getting more films like this these days. Also surprised and sadden to see that Charlbi Dean passed away.
I really loved this movie, it really is a masterpiece and Charlbi Dean is amazing in it, RIP.
Thanks for recommendation!
Thank you!
I just watched this last night and I loved it. Your review is excellent! I know I'm late tot he party here. You've got a new subscriber. One part that got me, early on is how JEALOUS the beautiful couple were. And the jealousy lead to a crew member (Dmitiri?) getting fired because he was hot and had his shirt off. The captain's dinner scene was extraordinary!
Happy New Year guys. New subscriber. I love bingeing your videos. Thank you.
I got the impression after the Russian wife was trying to get the female crew member to go in the jacuzzi that she was bisexual and that her both her and her husband are sleeping with the mistress… she definitely put her hand on the young woman’s thigh and wanted to see her in a bathing suit. Then it became about control.
Carl liked having women take care of him. Yaya makes more money but she expects Carl to take care of her… so their compromise is that they try to be equal, until one or the other finds a rich partner. Carl doesn’t admit this at first so we think she’s awful by manipulating him, but we see they are actually both the same… willing to sell themselves sexually to be kept by a richer/more powerful person.
I don't think Carl suspected Yaya would be hurt. I think he was running to stop Abigail from telling Yaya about them because he found out there's a resort on the island and that he didn't have to accept his relationship with Abigail anymore.
How would he have found out?
@@kingtchenka628 the German lady, charades, maybe that dude tried to sell the other people a hat too
I think he was running to save his relationship because he realized that Yaya was in danger.
@@kingtchenka628 from the peddler selling stuff
He was selfish the entire movie so maybe he realized Yaya invited Abigail alone on a hike and thought Yaya might kill Abigail out of jealousy, so he's running to save Abigail who's his meal ticket.
How did I miss this review!!!
Okay I never watched it bc you said you liked it. So I finally watched it! Iconic.
Is Joseph Latino? I must know!!! I love this couple - they’re so beautiful and funny!!
P.s. loved this film!!
LOVED THIS
If the flies were purposely included or added I wonder if it could be a reference to Lord of the Flies. Which seems to have similarities to (at least the 3rd act) this film.
My theory about the ending: the vendor tipped off Carl who ran frantically to the resort hoping to go online for the Fish Jelly explanation.
There is 3 sides of sadness in this movie, that was a lot of sadness.
ty 4 the fun review! lol
Thank you!
Can’t wait to see this one. Woody Harrelson really knows how to choose a good role, even 40+years in the game.
He's a great actor. Just never ever ask him to do a reddit AMA ahaha.
Great review! I’d love to hear equally what both of you have to say :) Maybe split the review into parts between you both so people don’t get talked over?
we like the overlaps
This sounds hilarious 😂
Will you guys be covering White Lotus 2.0?
No way they miss it. I'm looking forward to watching the review right after I binge the episodes.
In den Wolken= In the clouds
I loved this movie. Such a wild, crazy ride. It’s also very sad to note that Charlbi Dean Kriek (who played Yaya) died tragically just after the film was released :/
The actress of the woman with the stroke is actually Iris Berben, a German actress (back in the day) and the phrase she says is actually German and translates to "in the clouds".
Enjoyed this, the bluntness of the political elements/characters/stereotypes didn't really bother me, saw that a few publications gave it very negative reviews for what appeared to be this reason, but they were paywalled. Very sad to learn of Ms. Kriek's passing, RIP.
Thanks!
Thank you!
I think Karl running at the end probably means that people from the resort side (like the saleman who met the German lady who had a stroke) are showing up and the revelation has reached Karl and the others. He might be running because it dawned on him what Abigail's reaction might be and what that means for Yaya.
Also, the Captain's assistant said "any day but Thursday due to the weather" but the Captain insisted on Thursday and so his incompetence made the seasickness-food poisoning debacle possible as well.
I want to see this
the ending was definitely carl was chasing the guy selling stuff..
"In den Wolken" , German ""In the Clouds"" / As usual I find your observations very good. Agree about the donkey scene, at least we don't really see the animal. Really related to the dinner scene where Woody H is served a burger and fries, while the others have octopus tentacles, etc on their plates.
My favourite part of act 2 was when all the guests are in the hall w/life preservers and this flashlight is shining down a spotlight on different groups of them, their facial expressions took me out LOL. They look like refugees
I thought it was interesting that you said you know the island is inhabited with the peddler. I clued in with the reveal of the donkey. A donkey is a domesticated animal they aren't wild like a bird or squirrel. Maybe that was my own knowledge and made a spoiler before it was revealed.
„ in den Wolken“ might be the thing the german lady said, it means in the clouds
The Russian woman sliding around in shit and vomit was brilliant! I haven’t laughed so hard…🙌
I fast forwarded that part. I thought the donkey killing was the funniest part, so it's kinda interesting to hear Nick and Joe reacted the inverse. Shows how this movie walks the line between satire and drama.
Just saw this one, thought it was very funny. Thanks for the review gentleman!!
Downhill shoutout
I watched this last night and enjoyed it. In the end, all I could think is, absolute power does absolutely corrupt. I think Abigail almost had a change of heart at the end, but when Yaya said you could be my assistant it took her over. She no longer wanted to be in a servile role. I understand that, but to be ready to kill because you want to have power over someone else. I suppose we see this corruption all the time when looking at the world.
I agree power corrupts. With Abigail we don't know what she does at the end. Does she kill Yaya, or does she change her mind? A great thought thought provoking ending.
I thought the lady with the stroke was hallucinating lol
Dolly!!! 👏👏👏
lol nice review! thx
“An IUD,” IM FUCKING DYING!
😂😂😂😂
I don't think I've heard y'all like a movie so much.
Definitely on the nose, but I didn’t find it to be preachy like so many films satirizing class dynamics are. The working class on the boat are not portrayed as inherently more noble or “better” people than the wealthy. They’re just people without power over others. They could be just as easily corrupted by power as the wealthy have been. BRAVO!
Also I love that y’all caught the inverted positions of Carl and Ya Ya by the end. The dynamic of their relationship has become the complete opposite of what it was at the beginning of the movie. Really great stuff 👍🏼
If you want to see an excellent movie with similar themes, see Swept Away (Italian).
This review was very on the nose
The movie adds an additional dimension for Swedish viewers, as theres alooot of Swedish pop culture references in it.
what's the relevance of the captain not eating the posh food, so avoids being sick?
Clementine and Winston (Churchill)
ALL I could think about after the pirates showed up was how there was a baby on that boat.
Silence!!! Joseph is speaking.
RIP Charlbi Dean (Yaya)
4 out of 5 from me its my 3rd favorite from 2022 after Everything everywhere all at once 5 of 5 and Tar 4.5 out of 5.
What held it back from a 5 for you guys?
The fly followed Carl for a majority of the film.I think it was symbolic for the fact that he really didn’t belong there.He wasn’t really rich but used his looks as leverage.He’s very insecure and wants to fit in and objectifies himself to anyone as means of survival.
IUD!!! 🤣
5 definetely. And unter den Wolken is german and means under the clouds
Below Deck " the Movie, poor Ya Ya" in real life.😢😥
Please can u review Charlie Says (2018), its about the Manson Family and well... they try and sympathise for the murderers?? It's... a movie.
"Oblong Lust?" hahaha
I feel like every time the other guy tryta talk he just gets talked over.
Def a 5 from me!
In der Wolken
"in den wolken" = in the clouds
I love the 3rd part so much. Abigail vs white rich peeps feels so much like developed western countries vs developing asian countries. The scene when the blonde lady took away food and water from Abigail was such a satire. I also feel like the island is like a place indicates a place where western centered power is demolished and that is the only place where people of color have a chance to be the leader.
The movie waa hillarious😆
I saw it a few times.
The character with one phrase that she's speaking with varying inflections reminds me of Groot's, "I am Groot." - Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel. 💫
(You're probably not a fan, but some others who comment might appreciate this.)
The movie should have ended with the question when Yaya asked abigail "Do you want to be my assistant?" rather than having carl run hysterically in the jungle.
It would have fit the theme of the movie and with a better impact for the end. imo
I thought it was top 2 best movies of the year
What happened to the baby ?
My partner and I saw it.
I agree that it gets heavy handed in the way the social satire is executed. Rather cartoonish. Fun in bits.
My partner wanted to walk out from the first scene and gave it 0 stars.
I give it 2.5 as good and not so good.
It was a great story flipping social classes, showing how disgusting it is when people kiss ass to raise social ranks, its so symbolic. The movie is brilliant! " In the clouds!!"
You could say something is on point instead of on the nose. Although I don't know why people complain about the latter.
I found this film so heavy handed that it got really boring. It seemed to make its point and then just wallow in it. Fail to see what the fuss is about.
wasn't all the barfing due to sea sickness not the food?
When the crew is ordered to go swimming, the chef tells Madam Paula that the seafood will go bad if they stop working...
The storm just accelerated or encouraged the projectile vomiting.
I loved this movie so much! She killed YaYa at the end.
IUD….lol
I still don't know what the deal with the pirates was. Why did they throw a grenade on the ship? I mean what was their goal here? Surely not hostages. And looting will be hard with a sinking ship as well. So just some kind of assassination? If so, why then proceed to board and start shooting, on a ship that is about to get its heck blown off?
How many donkeys have to die! But really the first 3rd could be cut. My friend told me Dolly is one of the most acclaimed actresses in the Philippines. #TeamAbigail
IED's are Improvised Explosive Devices. They arent manufactured.
Now I want to rewatch The Poseidon Adventure (1972) through a Marxist lens.
I think you forgot the vital moment at the end 5:50 when Yaya was conversing with Abigail saying that she could work for her. I don't think the film intended to imply that she killed Yaya, more so that she sided with her. Sounds like they may edited the final release.
I only liked the middle act...the rest was just soo drawn out.
"This looks like one of ours", was one of few, fun, dark moments, in my opinion. It was a lot of good points around power dynamic. But nothing new. I didn't like this movie. I had to force myself to finish watching.
a guy doing anything for food even if its an old lady...........nope!
my god this is not a spoiler alert. sorry to say. if you want to see the movie, dont start here, do it afterwards.
Just finished watching this movie. I have to say, it was a very disappointing movie, didnt really like it. All the critiques the movie was trying to make felt extremely on the nose and superficial
