I forgot about this thread.

We watch the movie a few weeks ago.

It was disgusting.




Disgusting how many of you dismissed it because of a trailer that was specifically designed to fool you about the movie. Even the movie itself grabbed you by the nose and lead you EXACTLYWHEREITWANTEDYOUTOGO. The movie itself was spectacular, and deserved all of the awards and accolades it's received. Even the "dumb blonde" shows once again that she has a well of talent hidden away that she can call upon when needed. The children acting? They were wise beyond their years, I'm blown away by the maturity that they had, and I expect that was mostly Waititi directing the hell out of them. The fat friend was acting (language, technique, body language) as well as any 30 year old professional. Funny and brutal with an otherworldly layer over everything, it reminds me of the OTHER fantasy movie about a child dealing with atrocities of war in their life, Pans Labyrinth. Remember, that was about a little girl's fantasy during a great war, with death around her (and possibly all in her head as she lay dying).
