In fairness to, uh, me, I titled the thread (based on reviews, which were heavy on the Hill comparisons) months before I actually saw the film. But yes, this film is neither gritty nor for adults.

They had some completely inane twat on the R4 movie show talking about the outright importance of the soundtrack to this movie and how *deeply* it was considered to go with the pictures. If he was someone working in advertising or Childrens tv he would have still sounded like a completely myopic former hireling on the Tarantino plantation. Fucking foetuses making movies for children, and doing it ver badly.

I just saw this on the plane. It was so much fun (even though Ansel, Spacey (ugh) and I thought Hamm was actually bad in this). I wanted to rewatch it right away.

Scott Pilgrim is a Great Film btw

Hamm is just miscast. Plus, as always in these crime fantasies, couldn't his character get work as a model?
Elgort looks like an unfinished pod person from a Body Snatchers.

Ann Hornaday nails Wright's Achilles heel: "self satisfaction." A master craftsman like Spielberg is never in showoff mode like this.

After I saw this and liked it so much, I asked my spouse if I would enjoy Fast and Furious movies. He said no.

fast five is a masterpiece tbh

The Furious movies are fun

yeah try Fast Five yerac. It's not the same sort of thing at all (for one, it knows how silly it is, but plays deadpan rather than Baby Driver's po-faced), but if one of them's going to work for you, it'll be that one
― Haribo Hancock (sic), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 20:02 (six years ago) link
He said Baby Driver was cheekier and I probably liked it because there was sparse dialogue and music that was more my jam. Supposedly Tokyo Drift is the best? (assuming I don't need to start at the beginning for back story).

how about other films about tinnitus?

scott pilgrim rules, so does this movie (kevin spacey's last)

Tokyo Drift is standalone
― Haribo Hancock (sic), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 20:13 (six years ago) link
tokyo drift features one of the worst lead performances i’ve ever seen in a motion picture, and the best character from it shows up in a major role in fast five, so go for fast five imo
― grim-n-gritty hooty reboot (bizarro gazzara), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 20:19 (six years ago) link
One thing about Kevin Spacey is that at least I discovered Difficult People because of the reel of all the Spacey insults.

I watched Wonder Woman, Atomic Blonde, Baby Driver and the beginning of Snatched on the plane on Friday? Disclaimer: I took a xanax and had drunk a lot of wine (activation) because I hate flying so much. I got weepy during WW, fell asleep during the middle of Atomic Blonde and loved Baby Driver. Maybe I do need to rewatch to make sure it was as surprisingly awesome as I remember.
― Yerac, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 20:23 (six years ago) link
Watch snatch imo

Atomic Blonde sucked, totally drab & boooooring

IT ALSO HAD A GOOD SOUNDTRACK.

Yeah, I was confused when I woke up but people looked attractively put together.

I would avoid the boring cut of Atomic Blonde, the one I saw was pretty great.
