I have to say Alana Haim was absolutely brilliant in this film. One of the best movie performances I've seen in a long time.
Mark sums up the “controversies” around this film so beautifully. They can’t be together but they sort of are. It’s messy and it’s not really ok, but it’s also not harmful to anyone and they’re both getting what they need amongst the unique chaos of their lives. The performances are so special. The needle drops are absolute all timers. It’s a complete triumph.
They were together but not intimate.
Social media whinings are considered 'controversies' these days, so no; no controversies.
The Japanese accent controversy is ridiculous. The character is an idiot! I did feel that if the gender was reversed with regards to the age gap controversy, then the papers would have had an absolute field day.
Nope
it is not an oscar worthy movie at all
I loved this movie. I loved the story and the way Alana and Gary just look like regular human beings.
@@dorkarama3135 bozo
@@dorkarama3135 What kind of relationship would you prefer for her? Did you notice that ALL the adult male characters in the film are sexist, racist, liars, and/or misogynistic? Would you rather her character date those characters? I think you completely missed the point of the movie, didn't you?
@@fiarandompenaltygeneratorm5044 so if it was the other way round you'd be rooting for a 25yr old man to date a 15yr old girl because ALL the female characters were the above?
@@joeodonnell921
There is way too much stigma revolving around relationships like those.
@@azula3906 lol uhuh breaking down barriers
Watched it for the second time in theater today. Really leaves you with a positive vibe and it's one of the best movies I've seen in quite some time
felt the exact same way, saw it twice
Saw it again tonight. Took my seventeen year old daughter to it. I thought she'd love it like I had. She didn't and I suspect I know why. She's begining to live out her golden moments while I can only look back on mine. The difference is that I know how precious and fleeting they are.
@@dorkarama3135 tiny birdbrain comment.
@@dorkarama3135 Actually, she was appalled. Ironically, this boy she's good friends with who is also seventeen is in love with a woman who is twenty six and he's not unlike Gary; cluelessly bold. He makes corny advances towards the woman and we've lost count of how many times she's gently turned him down. If anyone was going to find it hilarious I thought I'd be her. They say Gen Z'ers are easily offended whereas Gen X'ers shrug and laugh at the absurd.
You worded that SO well 🙏
Are you a writer?
Maybe you should ask your daughter why she didn’t like it instead of just assuming something based on how you felt about it
also you probably grew up watching films as a child watching films on tv from the 30,s 50s,60s,70,s and 80s.She is of a generation that rarely if ever see things that are more than 5 years old.
Alana Haim and Cooper Hoffman are both superb; that Alana never acted on screen before is astonishing- WHAT a multi-talented polymath! Cooper is a true chip off his mighty father's shoulder, a huge career ahead. I was born in 1973 when the events take place, so this film makes me wish I had been born in California and not crappy Croydon!
Best film i’ve seen in a very, very long time. Cried, smiled and laughed all the way through. Just wonderful. One of the PTA’s best.
@Peter Kelner
What makes a film a “Hollywood” one?
Which markets, they aren’t Hollywood, are producing better movies?
Get in there, Licorice Pizza is being shown in more cinemas/Cineworld later on in week.
So that more people can see this cool/awesome film. Get in there.
@@CorbCorbin There's many characteristics particularly when looking at different eras of Hollywood in retrospective. It's always harder to pinpoint the trends of a current era. PTA comes from the postmodern 90s Hollywood, though he's never fit into any specific mold really in my opinion.
I think the film is so subtle, moving, and beautiful. It’s like you’re naturally watching this friendship between the two characters grow and by the end it just kind of melts your heart. I think it could definitely win Best Picture
So pleased to hear mark loved this so much. Been looking forward to this one for a while.
PTA is one of my all time favourite directors. I am looking forward to this one.
It's hard to fathom that neither lead had acted before in a film. (Alana was in many HAIM videos but Cooper Hoffman has no credits other than this film on IMDB. Both totally crushing it. My favourite PTA film, closely followed by Punch-drunk Love. It's funny, cringy, tense, weird, lovely, great music, beautifully shot and it's just lovely that Alana's whole family in Licorice Pizza is her actual family. Still can't believe how good Alana and Cooper are.
I love the John Peters part with them smashing up his Farrai
The Master is still my all time PTA film; a film about unrequited love between Freddie and The Master.. Can't wait to see this.
Yesssss
The Master is superb but it's still Boogie Nights for me. Licorice Pizza is hugely enjoyable - a very likeable and lovingly crafted picture - and the performances are excellent, especially Alana Haim.
Phantom Thread for me, but I really think all his movies are at the least very interesting. Magnolia is also a perfect movie. So happy that he again made a great movie.
I just came back from the theater. I don’t know what I just watched but I loved it ! 😅
This film just made me happy
I love the American graffiti comparison. The similarities are definitely noticeable, especially with the use of radio broadcasts in the background.
I really loved the film, genuinely what kept it from being my number one film of the year was that shot of Bradley Cooper smashing up the two cars isn't a proper scene in the film.
Anderson has done that before too. It's one of his things now. There were deleted scenes in some of the trailers for The Master, for example.
I've been incredibly excited for this to see PTA return to the wonderfully kinetic energy of a Punch-Drunk Love or Magnolia. Hoping to see it on New Years Day to kick off 2022 in style!
But it's that kinetic energy handeled by the more mature and considered Anderson. To me it's like a film the younger Anderson would concieve, but only the older Anderson could make. There's that theme of old and younger again.
Most excited I’ve ever been for a film that isn’t a big blockbuster event
It’s always an event for me when a PTA film comes out
who the hell is excited for blockbusters anymore?
Ah working in the studio was short lived - but glad the podcasts are continuing
Phantom Thread Is a Masterwork
. . . Oh , to be viewing that for the 1st or 2nd or 3rd or 4th time in cinema again !
When Mark said that he had ... " Seen it 4 times now - and it gets better each time "
I thought ... ' Who is he kidding? ' ...
How correct he was . A handful of people in for each viewing in 3 different cinemas
No accounting for taste .
We adored this movie and saw it in a tiny cinema in Lewes on a Thursday in the afternoon, it was wonderful, charming, clever, surprising, a and random much like life.
Love that little theater. Never been there but I've driven passed it a million times.
Great, great movie! Who doesn’t want to watch it again in a theater?
You know it’s good when Mark can breathe it in
Ye its like he took off his critic hat for this one, and just enjoyed it as a fan
Its tactile
I dont understand why people like this movie so much. It is beautiful, charming, the whole atmosphere is great.. but. There is no real story, it starts off with them kind of together but not really, then one of them has a thing with someone else and the other ist Jealous, or they hit an external roadblock of some kind. Rinse and repeat until it is over. Nothing is learned, there is no overarching story other than will they or wont they.
It gave me nothing.
And the worst part is, i dont believe their age difference for a second. In fact in the beginning i thought she had lied about her age.
He looks much older than 14 and she could easily be much younger than 25.
I feel like people like it for the nostalgia of it all but thats simply not enough to make a good movie.
films dont need to hold your hand along a clear and defined path for there to be a compelling story betwen the characters. idk the big lebowski is my favourite movie so i like movies that dont particularly go anywhere
It almost felt like PTAnderson is making a Richard Linklater movie, in the sense that its a feel good movie, and even though nothing goes wrong in a movie like Dazed and Confused by Linklater, and nothing goes horribly wrong here either, but in every scene there is this ominous feeling that something CAN go really sideways. Its surprisingly intense for a feelgood movie, which makes it really special.
It's kind of sad we are so ill-afforded opportunities to still see actual FILMs made by FILM-makers. On that score Licorice Pizza is, in of itself, already a minor miracle. Of course I will reserve all judgement until after I see it. But PTA's achilles heel, in my opinion, is his inability to reel himself in while telling a story. Boogie Nights is a great film and certainly plays it loose with its narrative structure. But there's still trajectory, a sense of purpose that keeps us moving with his characters. When PTA decides to amble he quickly lose headway and things can get frustratingly incoherent. Inherent Vice and the Phantom Thread are nice to look at and have great performances. But PTA's almost aggressive lack of urgency or purpose left me...indifferent. He's still probably the best director working and I hope Licorice Pizza is fantastic.
Nailed it
Man I loved this movie. Its going down as a cult classic for me.
Excellent review. This could be the one movie to get back into a theater since 2019!
Absolutely! I spent a lot of 2019 in the theater seeing great films like Joker, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, The Irishman and even a horrible one like Rambo: Last Blood. I didn't go to the movies for a while due to Covid and not seeing anything that interested me enough to go see.
However, Licorice Pizza was the one that got me in the theater again and I loved it! I also saw one of my absolute all-time favorites last night, The Godfather. It is back in theaters for the 50 year anniversary. That was a nice treat and a special night.
It should, it's marvelous.
Movie is the epitome of double standards…. Swap their genders around and we’d have a completely different reaction
It’s a masterpiece. I’m obsessed with “Licorice Pizza”. Paul Thomas Anderson is a truly brilliant screenwriter and director. I cannot stop thinking about this film. National Board of Review got it right, voting it as best picture and Anderson as best director. I know it’s not going to win best picture at the Oscars because the voting membership isn’t smart enough to recognize such unadulterated brilliance. I know I’m being effusively over the top in my praise and the only other best picture nominee I’ve seen is “West Side Story” and I don’t care. This may wind up being my favorite movie of all time in the history of cinema.
Saw this film last night, and have mixed feelings about it. Loved the nostalgic feel of it, how it looked, the use of music, and the performances from the leads (though I think Alana Haim definitely stood out higher than Cooper Hoffman here). However, unlike Kermode I didn't fully buy into the chemistry between the two, and so the meandering plot didn't really work for me in terms of building up the relationship between them, I viewed them purely as episodic scenes (though some, like Bradley Cooper's, were really fun). I was also a bit dissatisfied with the ending, I would have preferred it to be bit a more ambiguous. A fun film, but not up there with his best, for me.
"Suddenly turns into Wages of Fear" excellent observation!
Great film. A wild ride. Totally and utterly unpredictable, as is their relationship. The whole cast are stellar, even John C Reilly in his tiny cameo as Herman Munster! Its so great to see Sean Penn on screen again. A beautifully atmospheric tribute to two people who don't quite fit in but are all the better for it. Sorry but PTA has never ever produced anything other than fascinating.
Boring--walked out
@@kennethschwartz9351 You’re not sophisticated enough or old enough or smart enough to recognize great filmmaking.
@@kennethschwartz9351 this film seems pretty polarizing (and I’m not even referring to lazy issues with controversies about age or whatever). Just as a movie in its structure etc. I think the more art-house film-minded seem to find sub-textual meaning that they see as very deeply moving, while on a surface-level to others, it is boring, disordered or pointless. Both are probably right, given the perspective they’re viewing it from.
Can't stop thinking about this movie PTA is the best
I love PTA but was very disappointed with this movie. Maybe I'll have to see it again because I remember not liking the master too much the first time I saw it but now love it after seeing it several times. I just kept waiting for something to happen in LP. 3/4 of the way through I remember thinking to myself whats the point of all this. Water beds, now pinball machines, jon peters is here and gone, a mayor pops up. Maybe a second viewing knowing now its sort of episodic with its structure, I can enjoy its charm that every critic has seemed to have felt. It feels like everyone took a drug and are feeling the wonderful effects but mine was a dud.
After a second viewing I enjoyed it more but still lower tier in PTAs filmography. The acting from the two new leads is tremendous, visually its beautiful. I don't know how PTA does it. He's one of the only directors I can think of where he's 70s period pieces actually look like they could be filmed in the 70s. Especially during the first waterbed scene. The cameos are all great and probably the best scenes in the movie. I don't like the last 20 mins of the movie. It drags for me and the ending is awful.
@@piratesfan1995able what changed for you in the second viewing?
Get in there, Licorice Pizza is being shown in more cinemas/Cineworld later on in week.
So that more people can see this cool/awesome film. Get in there.
Wonderful film, perhaps his most accessible. Great for viewers new to PTA.
This was my first PTA movie......I walked out the theater sadly. I found it to be really boring and not engaging😓. Hence, I'm now weary of watching any PTA movie if it's similar to Licorice Pizza
@@dominiquemorris7800 That's a shame, to each his own i suppose
@@dominiquemorris7800 PTA movies are kinda like that
Boogie Nights is definitely his most accessible, especially due to the cast.
@@juliajones2318 I actually didn't realize this movie was PTA. I watched it a while back and enjoyed it.
I love this film, it's my pick for best of the year, and I see AFI thinks so too. Mark's review right on about the tone and the amazing lead characters. So, I may be biased because I've hung out with the Haim sisters, and I'm a huge PTA fan. I've seen the film twice and loved it more the 2nd time. There's not a dull moment. There are "controversies", but nothing big really. The age difference - they're not dating, there's no consummations; they're friends who date other people. Insulting Asians - Jerry (played by John Michael Higgins) makes a fool of himself, not Asians. My Japanese friend could not stop laughing. I understand the concern about violence towards Asians, but let's not get over-sensitive about accents, considering all the other nationalities which are imitated. One reviewer said there are no good males in the film? Huh!? There are idiotic people, but no bad people in the entire film. There were times that I was nervous for Alana's situations, but Sean Penn as Holden was a perfect gentleman, and the Mayor (Benny Safdie) candidate's dinner invitation wasn't about making romantic overtures. I am very happy to see Alana and her sisters cross into filmmaking.
"Jon Peters" has no redeeming qualities, otherwise you're correct about the rest.
There are very few directors that I look forward to their next movie. PTA is one of the few.
"The first time I saw it..." Does Kermode watch every movie he reviews twice? (Either way, "Licorice Pizza" is a delightfully fun comedy. I wish more comedies took the care that this one does with character and the technical aspects--it's looks spectacular.)
All PTA films you need to watch about 5 times!
You really should watch a film more than once. Sometimes, it has taken me half a dozen views or more before I really appreciate a film.
@@ricardocantoral7672 I'm a veteran. I re-watch films all the time. But "Licorice Pizza" was just released and Kermode has stated he's already seen it multiple times. I've heard him use the "first time I saw it..." comment in previous reviews, too, so I was genuinely curious if he watches all the movies he reviews multiple times before reviewing.
@@rigsby1454 I've already done that. "Magnolia" probably 10+ since it's my favorite movie.
@@fiarandompenaltygeneratorm5044 10 times? You're a novice lol I've lost count how many times I have seen that film. I don't think it's his 'best'. I think The Master may hold that position, but Magnolia is my favorite film to rewatch. I still can't figure how how Anderson make 3 plus hours fly by like that!
I want to see this so much! Sadly, I don't think I'll have the chance to go out of town soon where my schedule isn't full. We'll see though.
Saw Licorice Pizza which I enjoyed but anyone know why William Holden charecter was called Jack Holden in the movie?
He even talks about The Bridges at Toko-Ri which William Holden starred in real life with Grace Kelly.
Other living real people like Jon Peters are portrayed.
Excited to watch this one!
God I have been waiting for this film since I knew it was in the works, PTA is the greatest director/writer of this century so far.
I have good instincts when it comes to detecting a film’s personality based on its trailer. I immediately wanted to see this movie, so I’m glad Mark enjoyed it.
Kermode! Amazing job in this one.
Its just released in Korea now. This is a crowd that rarely reacts to films in theaters but they all started laughing at the Mikado owner's fake asian accent to the Japanese wife...you might think how racist that was but here in Korea it was black comedy gold go some of pur audience.
This movie took me back to my youth in the 70s. I was struck by the huge amount of freedom we had as teenagers. We spent a lot of our time away from adults and really had to sort out situations for ourselves. We had very little in material terms, compared to kids today, but it was the best time to be growing up. I think we really enjoyed our lives, much more than kids today. I don't remember anyone being stressed, or on anxiety meds, or worried about online criticism or their future.
Anxiety and stress didnt exist? Okay boomer.
“I personally wasn’t stressed or anxious, therefore not a single person was”. Great reasoning there.
they did, to a less endemic extent than now. and why are you so upset at someone's take?
your spot on,adults were adults and children were allowed to be children.What a difference that made.
Just got out of the BFI, I really didn’t like it. If you changed it to be a young woman pursuing an older man perhaps the critics opinions would change. Perhaps it just felt too drawn out or the the unnecessary Japanese restaurant scenes but this movie just didn’t sit right with me. Also what was the point of Bradley Coopers character? Was it just to get another big name on the bill?
I loved the movie but I wish it ended differently and left things more ambiguous
I wanted it to close towards the end when they're looking for each other and begin running (again). They both stop running, gaze at each other from a distance and then BOOM; ending credits.
Watched it two nights in a row, absolutely loved it!
PTA is a wonderful director, but he’s never topped “Boogie Nights”. That he wrote and directed a movie that has such depth to it when he was 25/26 is mental.
You're not wrong. I've pretty much soured on all of PT Anderson's films since then, except perhaps parts of Magnolia. Boogie Nights for me was his last film that was truly entertaining all the way through
There will be blood. Phantom thread.
So excited to see this. Big Haim fan and PTA never fails to amaze 👍
Just got back from the film and loved it!! But shouldn’t shake past the age difference…couldn’t stop thinking about how people would be up in arms of the genders were reversed. It’s a film about the romantic relationship between a 15 year old boy and a 25 year old woman. I do not know why they had to do that to serve the plot. He could of turned 18 as the film progressed or something. Surprised PTA got away with it
IDK. For me, it wasn’t an issue because the movie made it clear that they’re not an aspirational or even a functional romantic pairing. The chaos of their lives draw them to each other in their own points of view and we’re left with an open ended moment of bliss with the very real possibility that it’s a toxic house of cards that’ll topple at any moment (which is also how Phantom Thread ended)
The reason people aren't is that they don't perceive males as being as vulnerable as females.
@@KitCalder that’s why Lolita and American beauty are considered classics right?
News flash every movie made before 1980 had insane age differences among stars. Audrey Hepburn was constantly matched with guys decades older than her
i absolutely adored this movie but i do agree. I wish they made him 18. Paul wouldn't even need to change anything story/plot wise but that simple change would avoid any backlash or uncomfortable pedo discussions that come with the current age gap. Idk why nobody said "hey Paul, maybe lets NOT take an unprovoked stance on pedophilia in 2021"... Probs because hes PTA
cant wait to watch this
Man..ty! You get it! Loved the alfred molina character comparison.. exceptional video
I soooo agree about PUNCH DRUNK LOVE.....what a wonderful movie...but this one is gorgeous too...
I was really excited to see this film and left feeling really annoyed and disappointed. Such lazy writing with no plot. It almost felt like there were a handful of important scenes that didn’t make the final cut. Also the age gap between the two main characters is gross.
Age old question, would you have liked it if you didn’t know pta directed it. The answer is yes for me :)
I think I was tired when I saw it, because it didn’t grab me the way I wanted it too. The way the trailer did.
I can sort of see what it wanted to do, but like the scene when they were running towards each other, it kind of flopped on its face.
I’ll get more from the second viewing I’m sure.
I didn't buy them as a couple for the entire movie, and that ending made me go "oh you guys were serious about this." Two leads had absolutely no chemistry imo, like there was some sort of communication breakdown that never got solved
I think if you're already a big Anderson fan, then this movie will probably click with you. The story and ambitiousness of the film reminds me of the young and cocky director of Magnolia, but the film itself is made by the more mature and considered Anderson.
How nice to see so much of his Dad in the face and manerisms of Cooper Hoffman. The old man would have been very proud.
Excellent review, Mark.
The least dark of all PTA's films and one of his best.
Ya baby! Haven’t laughed so wholesomely in forever ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Anderson's Inherent Vice is my favorite film of his.
Dysfunctional love and human relationships, in general, are PTA’s metier.
I presume it’s an in joke that mark referred to the wages of fear rather than the remake, sorcerer, which he loves
I've seen this film 3 times now, and now it's stopped showing in my area I'm just waiting for it to come out on streaming or DVD so I can watch it again
Horrible film that has nothing interesting to say. Hoffman doesn't have his father's acting ability and was totally unbelievable as someone who supposedly has charm but just comes across as dull and obnoxious. Forgettable scenes go nowhere and the point it is trying to makes gets hammered home repeatedly. The overall premise and the scene with the Chinese women were just odd and yet those who complain about similar scenes in films from the 60s and 70s now think this is acceptable and comedy gold. Love PTA films but this is his worst by a long way.
I have to say although I agreed with Mark most of the time and I usually like Paul Anderson`s work. This movie made me very confused and uncomfortable. Maybe because I'm an Asian women.
Absolutely- I am a black woman and I couldn't connect. The representation was super problematic
I enjoyed the soundtrack though.
Loved Licorice Pizza! Gave me Call Me By Your Name vibes, and I always want more!
How?
@@sonicbuddha8993 in the same sense that both characters fall in love but because of their own differences they feel bad/guilty for loving the other character back.
If this was by David O Russell Mark would hate it.
So excited about this. Love every PTA movie, except Inherent Vice.
I think you have to watch a lot of PTA movies twice to get the full appreciation because the first time is kind of overwhelming but the second time you can appreciate the big picture a lot more. Inherent Vice was kind of similar. PTA always manages to get the most amazing performances out of his actors and he's worked with so many great actors to start with.
Wish this went wide here in the States like it was suppose to. :/
Fingers crossed those Oscar noms gets that back on track.
They're going to role it out in more theaters once awards season hits (as it is going to get a lot nominations).
I really like Alana Haim look. She is like that ugly hot chick that everyone looks past. And the dude is the typical chubby white kid that everyone wouldn’t mind rooting for. The fact that it’s a romantic flick turns me off. The reverse of this would be American Beauty. But in American Beauty it’s a fantasy and in this their romance turns into reality. I hate movies predicated on the relationship of two people to make the film. It seems like a coming of age love story of a boy and a grown woman. I really can’t get my head past that. & she’s hanging out with 15 years olds trying to find her youth and way? The saving grace for this film is 70’s nostalgia and average looking actors.
I just couldn't get over the fact that he was fifteen and she was twenty-five, possibly twenty-eight, and we were expected to root for their relationship. Interesting also many male critics or glossing over this fact. 🤮
couldn't get passed the opening scene that was utterly cringe and awkward. She was telling him no the whole time yet actively encouraging his infactuated pursuit by engaging with him at every step.
I liked this movie a lot. They do a lot of running lol.
For me the perfect film, just loved it.
no tom waits impression mark ?
I really liked that review from Mark.
I felt the similarity with Punch, Drunk, love. Some funny moments too!
but what is the point of the movie i dont get it
I wonder if PTA will continue to work with the both of them in the future
Cooper is amazing.
Waiting for this movie in Brazil!
I’m a 28 year old teacher in a high school and I just couldn’t get over the main plot. No matter how you spin it, a grown adult should not date a 15 year old. I don’t know how people are okay with this film. It’s quite disgusting.
While I agree with you, I can get passed it because it’s fiction and I didn’t take the story literally.
@@dorkarama3135 Most teenagers of that age want to screew their female teacher. In southern Europe, your uncle buys you a night with a prostitute at that age. This confusiom is just a standard anglo conundrum.
@@dorkarama3135 how did two people in a row manage to use "get past" incorrectly. And you dolts are supposed to be interpreting eyebrow cinema?
@@dorkarama3135 Kinda depends on what happens in the movie. There’s no graphic sexual content. That’s the main thing that would make it an uncomfortable experience.
@@marcogianesello6083 I think of things like the sopranos. It shows racist, sexist, cheating, prejudiced, extorting, raping, murdering individuals as the main characters. And it’s my favorite television series ever. But you walk away saying “these people are terrible and this is something that no one should do. You are not cheering for these people”. That is not how I walked away from this film.
I can see the appeal, but personally, I just loathed the two leads and that meant I could never truly enjoy the film
Absolutely terrible movie - very difficult to care about the characters - one pointless scene after another - a waste of the talents of some very fine actors - just a really poor excuse for a film :-/
I feel like the world is gaslighting me into thinking this movie is good. I didn't buy the two leads at all. Felt like an adam sandler movie where it's just a bunch of rich people and their kids having an excuse to hang out. By the end I realized that they actually wanted me to root for the couple, but I found it completely unbelievable
What's the point of this movie??
It was a real palette cleanser to me after the action and superhero films of late. Heartwarming, non-offensive and just well....nice.
Also the controversy around the age difference is ridiculous. People making a mountain out of a molehill.
LEONARDO'S DAD ACTUALLY SOLD WATER BEDS, BACK IN THE DAY!?
PTA NEVER DISAPPOINTS.
I’m surprised he didn’t mention the title coming from graffiti in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
I had the best slept in my life, this movie works better than sleeping pills.
I’m just the opposite. I loved this film and nod off during comic book movies.
I honestly hated this movie
Does anyone know the deal with the guy with the numbers on his T shirt who is hanging outside the office?
He's what they call an 'opposition researcher' in politics. Basically trying to dig dirt on rival political candidates. In this case he was trying to out Wachs as gay
very, very confused as to why this is showing in about 3 odeons and 5 cineworlds on release day
But I can't find it anywhere man what do I do🤔
I had the exact same thought about 'Wages of Fear' during that Bradley Cooper sequence! That sequence was brilliant. Not sure what to make of the film in light of the age gap...
Loved the movie just saw it in the theatre
