I Love Boosters
★★★★ Liked Watched

Lots of really cool stuff in here. The stop-motion, the costumes, the vibrant energy. Surreal and joyful with a good message.
At first I was bothered by the lack of cohesion, but the more I think about it, the less that really matters. I think more movies need to be this ballsy without worrying about trying to have a perfect plot or super tight narrative.
But I do think the sci-fi stuff could have been pared down quite a bit and the messaging of the whole thing could have been better explored.
Overall really cool.

Obsession

I felt the dread in my body for hours after leaving the theater. Movies don’t usually do this to me, ever. I’m usually able to shake off even the darkest shit. My wife is out of town and I could not sleep the night I saw this. Literally called out of work the next day because I was awake all night. Maybe that’s cringe but that’s genuinely what happened to me. Navarette’s performance in those nighttime scenes really got under…

Saw the first ever pre-screening so I won’t be rating or discussing it due to the NDA. I really hope me logging this isn’t legally actionable. Let’s just say I really hope this gets a proper theatrical release and isn’t relegated to streaming only.

Someone let this old guy cook, and I’m glad. Actually, he definitely didn’t need permission to cook.
So many great comedic moments throughout.
The ONLY thing I’m confused about is Dustin Hoffman’s character—who was he and why was he there? I’m not saying he shouldn’t be there. I just didn’t grasp his whole thing.
