Movies People Will Tell You Are Good That Are Actually Shockingly Bad
Titane (This is like a lazy finals project by a middling film student but it’s French and pretentious so people will tell you they love it even though if you think about it for more than five minutes you realize how just unbelievably bad it is. Watch Raw on Netflix, same writer/director but actually really really good).
Licorice Pizza (A love story about a 25 year old girl and a 15 year old boy. Sooo… no, we are not doing this.)
The Power of the Dog (If you are still shocked that people are gay and do not think that women should have any agency or tell their own stories then you will love this movie.)
Worst Movie of the Year
Don’t Look Up- Netflix (It’s honestly so bad it’s worth watching just so you can see how bad a movie can be.)
So there you have it. Things to watch other than the news today. You’re welcome.
don't look up was so astonishingly bad!!
