you’re telling me i’m going to get to sit down in a theater and watch The Batman: Part II trailer and then Dune: Part III afterwards?

[Ross Urso @rossjurso]

Just LOVE the way you phrased this.

Before even comparing notes/ reading your review on Letterboxd, I had the same two issues written down.

I, too, did NOT like the way law enforcement was portrayed, plus suspending disbelief with characters not going down after the damage they take.

[Sean Chandler @kirkneverdied]

@rossjurso My bias is towards The Furious because it's stand alone, not a franchise, and not $100 million Hollywood movie.

But there's an easy cheat.

John Wick 4 is the best gun movie of the decade.
The Furious is the best marital arts movie of the decade.

[Lexorcyst @Lexorcyst]

Buckle up cause here comes the wave of people claiming it's overrated

[Joe Russo @joerussotweets]

NO.

Good-enough for The Furious is NOT "good-enough" and it makes me FURIOUS.

You have never SEEN a martial arts movie with choreography this INSANE.

Everyone who is out there seeing OBSESSION again-and-again:

DO A "FURIOUS OBSESSION" DOUBLE FEATURE RIGHT FUCKING NOW.

So… are we still screaming “release the files” or?

#DisclosureDay is a tough one to pin down without sounding like I hated this movie. 

I come away enjoying it more than I didn’t, but the longer the film sits with me, the more its cracks start to stick out like a sore thumb.

Getting the obvious out of the way first. Emily Blunt is THE secret sauce that carries a lot of this film.

A lot of the surprises came from her character and performance. 

Multiple moments where she figuratively, and at times quite literally, takes the spotlight and chews up the scenery.

And Spielberg DOES wiggle in some truly suspenseful sequences, such as a train set piece and a newsroom sequence that has me gripping my seat for dear life. 

Unfortunately, the packaging around all of that is uneven and disjointed, especially during the opening 45 minutes. So it definitely took a bit for the film to find a rhythm. 

Then once when you reach the payoff, it works in the moment. However, when you step back from it, it starts to thin out a bit.

In other words, it goes where you think it does… and that is where it ends.

So I am left with this push and pull sensation. 

The journey takes a while to actually come together as one cohesive piece, and the final destination feels satisfying in the moment. 

But after everything settles, the revelation begins to feel a bit outdated. Like something we already assumed, thus it’s not nearly as profound as it thinks it is.

Good, but frustrating movie. Spielberg is back. Just not BACK BACK.

Here is my short form movie review!

[Ross Urso @rossjurso]

@ConsultFantasy Not even top 5 Nolan

[Ross Urso @rossjurso]

Correct.

The summer movie market will be INCREDIBLY saturated.

Doing my due diligence to spread awareness on here, as well reviewing it on YouTube and TikTok.

Can’t recall an action movie blowing me away like this probably since John Wick 4, which came out in 2023!

I recommend supporting Obsession at very least, even if you aren’t a horror guy. Its success story is unprecedented!

[Ross Urso @rossjurso]

Rank these 4 movies. I’ll go first:

1. Obsession
2. The Furious
3. Disclosure Day
4. Backrooms

[Ross Urso @rossjurso]

@FlavorFaze What would you rate it?

[Ross Urso @rossjurso]

@tervisscoot The Hitchcockian effect. You know it’s coming. But just not when.

[roxy @hendrixnroses]

obsession and backrooms made ppl talk about movies who never talked about movies before

[Ross Urso @rossjurso]

@hendrixnroses Horror wins!

@bartonovopolis Before Sunrise > Before Midnight > Before Sunset

Pride & Prejudice has been on my watchlist forever it seems like. Need to revisit that one.
