the best war movie ever made, precisely because it is shows war as it actually is: so intensely disturbing that you could never put yourself through it again.

This is a fantastic movie
All the discourse surrounding it is exhausting it’s a fictional movie about war photographers and the tragedies of war and it is not a warning or “this will actually happen if we don’t fix things” movie
Kirsten Dunst is obviously great but Cailee Spaeny is the standout for me she is just so fucking good (can’t wait for alien Romulus that is going to be so cool)
The soundtrack is insane and songs play over the most harrowing shit you’ve ever seen that you would never think to put over those scenes but it works so so well
See it in imax if you can the gunfire is deafening and shocking and it is a great looking movie too (the incorporation of the photography throughout is incredible)
Anyone from DC or the surrounding area will be weirded out or at least I was seeing insane combat in the streets of dc and in the White House/lincoln memorial/Washington monument but it made it even more impactful for me

i’ve seen this movie twice now, and although some scenes are awfully hard to watch, the camerawork and symbolism is amazing. it’s masterfully written with both high intensity and comedic moments. if you can handle blood and guts and body horror vfx, you need to watch this film. i would say that the first watch felt very long, but watching it again definitely gave me another perspective.

i despise war movies. i don’t understand them and i don’t WANT to understand them. but something about the single-take style, the harsh lightning of a flare gun through the smoke, the overpowering score (the score!!! the score) benedict cumberbatch quoting lana del rey during the 20 seconds he’s onscreen, or george mckay’s innocent little face running through a battalion of soldiers (no, no, its definitely the score) it gets me every time man. hope is a dangerous thing

no more beating dead horses when it comes to movies, tv shows, etc. the movie doesn't need a sequel. the show doesn't need to go on for 27 seasons. we need more stories that are written with an ending in mind from the beginning.

best thing you can do for yourself is become extremely comfortable with being alone and doing stuff by yourself. at a young age i forced myself to get comfortable with that and now it's my default state-- i LOVE doing stuff by myself. my coworker is a person who literally cannot go places by herself and i have been trying to help her get more comfortable doing things solo because it's very freeing. everyone should be happy to go do stuff by themselves, it's lovely!
