"Hundreds of Beavers" Review and Analysis
I've seen the last two already, but I'm definitely gonna check out the first two, as they look really interesting, so thanks for the recommendations!
Love these types of videos Jackson
Thanks! I love making them.
I'm gonna try to watch one...ten years ago graduating LOL. I graduated in 1982 when America was a completely different world. I call them the golden years of America.
Love that there’s no sign of Overlap618 in this comments section. Bro just threw 100 bucks your way for the lulz.
Thanks for the review! Was debating taking my kids, now I’ll make sure to check it out! 👍
Ending was so bad though. Her surviving the fall makes no sense and is so dumb 😂😂
It's not based on a true story? I thought it was inspired by Aileen Wournos.
You saved a lot of ppl $20+, including me
I think you should watch the front room then at least Joker 2 is a 4 maybe a 3/10 I saw it in imax and haven't seen the first one I should put that in my bucket list now. But in imax it has good long shots of gotham, the sets were cool but with the singing parts it was just window dressing for them Joaquin tries but I guess the script hates him being Joker so they pull and tone him back and make you feel bad for him instead. and him and Mr puddles scene was interesting but just all the dam singing and dancing was too much holy moly I was cringing and saying to myself just please shut up during them and it comes randomly too but 2/10 I think the front room deserves that score Joker 2 should get a little higher then that. And I don't care for Lady gaga anybody else can fill that role that is a better actress and not just a singer just to have them in a DC movie that's a musical, and the ending is a real kick in the balls hopefully not another sequel if this is what we get.
It's pronounced "Folie HAWK TUAH!!!"
Too bad. The first one was a bit F'd up but good overall.
Looks way different compared to joker 2019, has more of a musical feeling
It looks boring to me from the previews.
I'm just gonna say it, this movie was bad. It was EXTREMELY boring and predictable, it goes nowhere. The characters have no charisma or depth. The whole movie feels like a movie trailer. I couldn't recommend it to anybody, honestly just skip it, there are better movies to watch in october. The substance was AMAZING. If you're looking for something to check out for this month here are a few off the top of my head that are really fun watches that are overlooked. Mandy - Nothing like it, fever dream of a movie. 1408 - One of the few movies that genuinely gives me the creeps, top notch psychological horror, one of the best. Toxic Avenger 1-4 - The king of camp, inspired so many movies and characters lowkey. It somehow manages to be a feel good movie while being extremely grotesque and disturbing at the same time. Kind of like evil dead 2-3 in that respect. Troma movies are their own genre. Upstream Color - This is not exactly a horror, but I guess you could argue that it's a psychological horror mixed with a little body horror. Extremely bizarre, takes a few watches to really understand what's going on but that's the fun of it. Definitely disturbing. Annihilation - I don't know why critics didn't like this, it leans more towards science fiction but I never hear anybody recommend this one. It's a really fun movie.
Nah, it was a really good movie. Substance was awful, feminist trope
Good analysis! I just watched it, and even tho the movie does have great cinematography, performances and soundtrack, I was feeling quite bored at the end of it, just wanting it to be finished. I see people saying it may be the year's best movie, but I see it having some flaws that didn't sit well with me. I think it's a good movie but definitely not the greatest movie.
Maybe you missed his major points?
Do you know how to say the word “THE?” Why do you say “duh?”
Interesting that you thought the visuals worked. As it a huge improvement from Trailer to the final product? I thought they looked too obviously cgi very often (in the trailer)
There were some notable bad moments, but there was also some “bad” parts that I still thought looked interesting, and then just some I thought was legitimately good.
To have expected anything but utter nonsense from this guy is on the viewer. That being said, I enjoyed every minute.
Old people are so fucked up. Retirement should be mandatory.
I liked it. "Shockingly bad" is the title I see alot from casuals
To each their own, film is subjective. Glad it worked for you.
when waa his last good movie and why did people suddenly think this was good?
Sounds like a great movie.
Watch Metropolis the silent move instead. Frank was basically ripping that movie off aesthetically.
Just felt like an old man rambling about all his philosophy, non of it coherent nor executed well. Applaud is effort and passion, but what really killed me was the OVERTELLING. if he toned down the elementary writing, and let his visuals do all the speaking, it would've been alright BUT when characters guide you through every scene with the worst dialogue ever, its infuriating. Still a fun experience for theater goers, but very sad to see such low level work come from a great man
I'm halfway in with a bootleg viewing of the movie. Not bad.
I went with very low expectations- perhaps because of this I loved it. It really worked for me. I think if you go in with an open mind you might have a good time.
I did go in with an open mind. It just didn’t work at all for me. Film is subjective though, glad you enjoyed it.
You’ll love the movie if you have a belly full of shrooms
It’s hard to recommend this movie to friends when it’s a spoiler to describe any element of the plot.
It a shame 🫠 😔 that this film didn't live up to are expected
THANK GOD I CHOOSE THE SUBSTANCE A WAY BETTER CHOICE!
well maybe see it and make your own mind up
Thanks for saving me the time. How does Shia Lebouf keep getting hired?
Part of it was, apparently Francis Ford Coppola wanted to hire as many “canceled” actors as he could.
I thought we was great in it. Maybe watch the film before you make your mind up
@@jacksonkruegermovies a honourable thing to do
I'd ask the same about driver!
@@rocoe9019 He's no Gregory Peck or Clack Gable. Our culture is collapsing.
Bro i have to say it again its so funny when youtubers do a bunch wildly different shit. One moment im watching you talk about how shit the bears are, next im watching you talk about you opinions about the carrer aspirations of christopher nolan.
Haha well thanks for checking both channels out!
Sounds like it went over your head man. You've never let your living space get bad then realise how bad it's gotten later? That's two versions of you. The past version of you is Elizabeth (depressed, slob, doesn't care about keeping tidy and clean) and later on you see how dirty it all is and clean up; becoming Sue (or your ego/idealised self). Sue is shocked because it is trying to convey how we beat ourselves up. It's a movie about how we destroy ourselves with impossible standards perpetuated by society and our own mental issues. 2/10 review
Sure, as I said it the review, I think from a thematic standpoint it works. My point was that I never understood why the character of Rebecca wanted the substance, so that part from a narrative standpoint didn’t work for me. (Even if I get and appreciate the metaphor). Sorry you didn’t like my review, but thanks for checking it out anyway!
@@jacksonkruegermovies Sorry if I came across as rude. Just really enjoyed the movie
Oh man i think you may be missing a lot of the thematic elements here. They do share a consciousness and operate in sort of the way we make bad decisions that future us has to suffer the consequences of. Like getting way too drunk at night and then having a terrible hangover in the morning. It’s self-sabotage, and we often think in terms of “future me is going to hate me for this”.
She enables her bad behaviors by not identifying with whichever body she is not inhabiting even though deep down she is aware that all of this behavior is her own responsibility. “Remember you are one” is the recurring response anytime she calls the substance’s plug to complain about the other body’s behavior. In a lot of ways the movie is about becoming alienated from our own bodies and minds and falling down an abyss of self-loathing
The idea of the substance being a drug helps this metaphor. Everyone loves being intoxicated but everyone hates having to clean up the messes we make in that state. As she devolves, the substance user becomes the dominant force and has to destroy the sober person who realizes that this addiction is killing them. Only one personality could ever survive but paradoxically neither one can exist without the other. Truly fascinating writing.
I think the question of whether or not they are the same person is meant to be puzzling and ambiguous. It is repeated that they are one, but it almost seems that this may be more of a truth that is *convenient* to believe rather than true in an ultimate sense. I mean, how long would you truly stay the same person if you were swapping bodies and lifestyles so dramatically on a weekly basis? She is developing two distinct personalities, and merely shares consciousness, but a single consciousness is not necessarily tied to a single personality. Think about how people behave so differently when they are wearing costumes at a costume party. The shield between your true appearance and what people see enables a strange and alluring sense of liberation, and many people get sucked into that and behave in ways they never would if they weren’t in costume. You think differently, more id, less superego. Then the day after, you have to deal with whatever consequences your behavior earned you. With this comes a strange sense of alienation as you realize you really were not yourself that night, but what does it mean to have not been yourself when yourself is the only thing *you* can technically be?
It was good but not the masterpiece everybody making it out to be, was 45 minutes too long IMO
I was rapt the whole way through! I felt like I was watching a movie from the future.
You should watch the director’s commentary on the character’s motivation. It highlights the desperation and cruelty many women feel about their physical appearance throughout their lives. The violence she inflicts on herself is far more brutal than any external force, symbolizing the internal abuse women often subject themselves to. When the parts of her that she loves and hates split, it represents the profound internal conflict many women experience, especially when she violently kills the “old her.”
Interesting, do you know how I can find that? I’d love to check it out. But yeah I agree with everything you said. I think thematically the film works really well. But when watching it, I mostly found myself confused as to why the character of Rebecca wanted the substance, even though I liked the symbolism of it.
I have a couple of neighbors I could build a tunnel to and they would remain clueless.
Loved this film!
Sue Lyon was only 14 when she was cast as Lolita so she was older than the Lolita in the book who was 12 but she was hardly an adult as you stated in the video. Lolita is a great movie,
Oh you’re right, I misremembered that. Thanks for the correction.
I think it’s definitely intentional on the humor. Kinda surprising given the tone of the trailer, but just look at the post credits scene and it’s undeniable
One of the best sntihero movies made imo
The color is gorgeous!
alt title: I love taxi driver taxi driver is great wow its the best have you seen taxi driver by the way yeah nah a guy fucking up his date and going on a frustrated incel shooting spree isnt as interesting or complex as you think 💀
Travis isn't going in a shooting spree because his date went wrong, he was the whole movie in the taxi talking about the trash and the scum of the city, and in all that there is a girl he think isn't part of that, so when he fuck the date,and he has problems with sleep probably because of PTSD, and the problems with the kid made he go to the shooting spree. Is not just about a date.
@@peps4876 yeah nah if this guy had a gf the rest of the movie wouldnt play out the same 💀
@@Arionid he is god lonely man, until he gets aGF
Ernest movies were the best as a kid!
Sounds like you loved it
this film was fun for me as a kid. also good call out, it had really good wet puppet effects. the 80s wet puppets were so gross and fun.
Joker is good but I can't help to find way to many comparisons to A Clockwork Orange with it.
Definitely the worst of the Earnest movies. The Christmas one was the best.
Could be worse at least you didn't watch those FRED movies 🤣
