Love reading the letterboxd POWER users™️ histrionic reviews of this movie. 2020 was undoubtedly a turning point where narrative and whatever version of it you consume became reality. This movie does a good enough job taking some of those narratives and having the characters interact with them. There is no character that perfectly represents the “correct” narrative because there wasn’t really one. I think that’s INTENTIONAL and doesn’t make Ari Aster a BAD PERSON.

If you went into this assured in what you like about Safdie, your viewpoint wouldn’t be challenged in the slightest. Well made with a few great performances, but was very much style over substance. 

Also the complete lack of even attempting to talk like they’re in the 50’s was so ridiculous it became kinda funny and awesome.

Beautiful movie to watch before the global economy collapses later today

There is no level of contrarianism that can convince me that this movie does not kick ass.
