I finished watching Beau Is Afraid and immediately looked up the reddit reaction to make sure I wasn't nuts thinking it was awful.
I do that with lots of movies tbh, reddit had kinda taken over the imdb forums. Waiting to see if kbin has the same effect.
Beau is afraid fucking sucks btw
You should post your Beau opinion on [email protected], I think since the movie sub is trying to keep its users on reddit it's been slow to get movie discussion going here lol
That sucks to hear. Joaquin Phoenix is great in practically everything and Ari Aster crushed it with Hereditary.
Maybe itβs a movie that works better on paper than celluloid.
The first third is cool and interesting. But jfc we don't need a three hour movie of pretentious jerking off of Ari Aster's mother issues.
Total misfire imo. It's like he wanted to ape charlie Kaufman's neurosis without putting in the work of writing a cogent screenplay.
/end rant
I liked the first 45 minutes of it, but once he left his apartment it went downhill from there.
