I liked it!

When did directors stop using Alan Smithee, and start using Trey Edward Shults?

People are clowning on that one scene that's making the rounds on social media, but what people aren't saying is actually, that scene is the best, most interesting scene in this otherwise stultifyingly boring movie. For those who--like me--enjoy rubbernecking at at box office flops, there's little to actually see here. Just an all (extremely derivitive) style, no substance snoozer.

First rewatch since I saw it on MTV at my cousin's house at a sleepover after he fell asleep, which I feel is the intended way to watch.

So much of the visual language of La La Land is ripped straight from this movie. Unbelievably romantic.

Finally recognize it among The Social Network and Gone Girl as one of Fincher’s finest.

A dad and his two daughters were sitting two rows in front of me, yukking it up the entire time. I wonder if they'll watching this in a theater with their dad. Very few children will, and I thought a lot about that on the way home.
