i feel u knives

if I had read a synopsis first, I wouldn't have watched it. but it felt so far off from every other cliche like it, so beautifully crafted. the soundtrack, the performances, the discomfort, the beach scene... man.

while I did find some moments very touching, some parts just ran too long and I got bored (and uncomfortable ahh). regardless, it was able to fill the melancholic-and-bittersweet-romantic-movie shaped hole in my heart

The Menu feels like a boring midsommar retelling.
1. Man who knows everyone will die invites girl to cult.
2. Cult all start to k*ll themselves and everyone else.
3. Girl only one who connects to cult and therefore doesn't die.

basically: I got icked out early on.

I feel like the characters (especially Amber) really lacked depth. Too many chunks of the early/middle dialogue felt like the writers were just throwing out buzzwords in attempts to assert Amber's idk, confidence? ambition? girlbossness?
(hello to:
"do you what you said the other day?"
"that the state controls vaginas?"
"no the other thing"
As well as the 2-second snippet of her on the bike talking about Margeret Thatcher. or the snapshot of her shitting on oasis).
Amber's dialogue being a string of sporadic and unpurposed one-liners that were left unelaborated really made her character feel ingenuine and empty, and this really annoyed me. If you want her to be ~punk~ then COMMIT!

...but on the other hand...
the scene where she calls Eddie '"too country" and he's like dude, "you live a quarter of a mile away from me" makes me question if it was all meant to be ironic in a bid to portray Amber as hopeful and inspired, but still a little young and inexperienced.

It also felt like the writers were trying to build Amber a manic-pixie-dreamgirl personality without the bad rep, so they gave her a couple of minutes of her own storyline in between Eddie's story.

idk, i just found it really irritating which definitely tainted my perspective for the remainder of the movie, but I can see the heartfelt coming-of-age appeal in it.

i am speechless
what the awesome fuck ????
