Its a must watch. I'm really lost on what defines a great movie...Originality and the actual filmmaking piece of movie making seems to have taken a back seat.

I think its unfair to put this all on the Comic book take over but there is also push for brand and franchise in the business. The industry wants to push the easy button. These actors that have sold out to the comic books, they have lost all credibility...they aren't great, these actors never were. Now the Joker I wouldn't put in same book as an FYI, anybody with a brain should be able to draw distinction to what im talking about.

Uncut Gems, 1917, Once Upon a Time (even tho the base story is well known)....this is moving making.

Parasite movie...the story and the acting seemed disingenuous. Overly trying to make a point made many many times in movies over and over again. That's not originality. Poor acting as well.

Adam Sandler...blew it away. Kevin Garnett...awesome. Supporting cast great and the cinematography outstanding.

Hollywood is trash...they don't know their product.
