Saw someone on Twitter say this was the worst film they have ever seen, so I put on to see if it is indeed the worst film ever made. And yeah, I definitely agree. Almost antithetical to what an action blockbuster should be. Incoherent, loud, and challenging - a film bound to frustrate on a first watch. This type of experiment is unnecessary and should have never been attempted. We must strive for more by the book cgi blockbusters.
did not expect to see Greta Gerwig in this. but i learned they referenced Pavement in Barbie so there you go.
so much. both good with the amount of art (museums, concerts [soccer mommy pavement cover is about as indie as it gets right?], biopics, musical theater) and overwhelming with the amount of stuff that this doc feels like it’s scrambling to keep everything together. hilarious Joe Keery performance, parodying actor brain.
Another Alex Ross Perry led Pavement tribute starring someone i did expect to see in this, Sophie Thatcher, will probably be more my speed.

excellent pairing with s Ha. movies need to depict more 20-something broke artists. i feel like that’s reserved for tv nowadays.
it was the clunky scene to scene transitions that showed its flaws and smaller budget to me. all in all though a good film.
