Clearly Calvin wants to watch movies with Leo in it. Calvin also watched the trailer thinking it would be pretty cool then we both experienced the whiplash of intense sexual themes in the first 5 mins. We genuinely thought the whole film was going to be like that. The rating would be much higher if the beginning wasn't so bad. Calvin and I almost stopped the movie because the beginning was so hard to get through in terms of disjointed characters and plot. No one was likeable and everything was hard to follow through. hard to know what was important and what wasn't Its a solid cat and mouse chase kind of movie. a lot of people are putting a lot of focus on the politics of it but I feel the politics were not that big of a focus. I think people are getting confused between themes and plot. I think the poor dialogue at the beginning misdirected the intention of the movies focus. The movie had a some strong points but also a lot of weak points Strong points: - Character motives! everything was justifiable - Building suspension with extra cuts and shots - Strong side characters that are likable. you really root for them too and build trust with them along with the main characters - Ending was satisfying and emotional, just what it needed - Leo. He's always good with a phone in hand. That whole scene with Commander Josh was such a good break from all the tension and was a solid laugh - I liked how the environment and props wasn't an antagonistic force and wasn't used for plot blocks. Film was purely moved by character and solid plot which was so refreshing especially the film mainly being shot in desert. Weak points: - Weird soundtrack. Some scenes it did work but other scenes it overstayed its welcome - The beginning! Perfidia was so polarising and it made no sense of what she did other than to be polarising. wish they took more time to set up her relationship with Bob to give him more incentive to take care of Wila other than him being the more responsible out of the two. I feel like making Perfidia unlikable affected Bob because I found it hard to care for him at times at the beginning. - Acting was really strange for Lockjaw. nothing about him looked right and not in a character sense, but in the sense of him not knowing how to react to some dialogue in the scene. could also have been an editing problem Overall, film was digestible but there are better films to watch for your evening. I guess its only good if you like a thriller genre and if you like Leo
