    I also saw this last night. I cannot remember the last time I’ve had such a reaction to a film. It was brutal. It is the best film I have seen in recent memory and I don’t think I’ll ever watch it again. The relationship btwn Dunst and Spaeny and what it built to punched me in the gut. I cannot stop thinking about this.

    • @BreakfastAllDay

      That evolution -- of both characters and their relationship with each other -- felt so thorough and natural in just a short period of time. Glad you saw it too, Jack.

    One part of me fears these kinds of movies (like Purge) fueling the fire towards making reality in a never more fragile and divisive time and on the other hand waking up the people (or sheeple) to the fact this could actually happen. I’ll look forward to your guys full review!

    It builds slowly. The dynamic between the four main characters is very good. They are very different. Some of them get a buzz from being in the middle of a gun battle and that's captured really well. There are two great sequences. The scenes with Jesse Plemons are fantastic - you don't know what will happen. And the gun battle at the end is riveting. Kirsten Dunst's reaction to what's going on really gives it a whole other level that I have never felt in that type of action sequence.

    Got my Partner into Garland through Men so it will be interesting to see what we both make of this.
    I think my favourites of his are Annihilation and Ex_Machina but I really liked Men and got a lot out of Devs too.
    Expectations are high - perhaps a bit too high.😉

    Hi Christy! I'm Mireia from Spain and I love your channel. I studied TV and cinema and worked several years as a TV producer. I eventually quit cause it's a very competitive job and I was mentally struggling. Now I have a totally different job, but I recently started my own film reviews channel. I'm not planning to make a living out of it. But I'd love to go to some film festivals every now and then. Any advice on how to have access even if I don't work for any media outlet?
    Thanks. Huge fan.❤😊

I'm already more immersed every day in that than I want to be! I'm actually a little scared of this movie! Weird, huh? And I love Alex Garland so I really have to think about this.

    @ssssssstssssssss Месяц назад

    My favorites of his are Never Let Me Go and Sunshine probably, though he didn't direct those. Ex Machina came out the same year as Transcendence and Transcendence kind of makes Ex Machina look juvenile in its exploration of themes related to AI. Unfortunately it was panned and bombed and the director hasn't directed another film since, I think. Never Let Me go was an adaptation of a Kazuo Ishiguro novel so I guess that's why it felt more sophisticated than his other works.

      @ssssssstssssssss Месяц назад

      Yeah. Thanks for the reply. I guess because I am in AI, I found Ex Machina to mostly ask questions discussed in an introductory course whereas Transcendence asked more profound questions and was a bit more subtle.
