I'm 30 minutes in and bored out of my mind.When does it get good?
>>215700203never, it's complete shit like all the movies by this director
>>215700203stick with marvel movies
>>215700203It’s literally “DUDE ACID!” the movie. There isn’t much to understand
>>215700203Doesn't. Switch over to Psycho Goreman.
>>215700223>>215700346I decided to watch Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire instead
>>215700408>Harry Potter and the Goblet of FireThat one's also fine. Mandy is a movie for drug addict midwit types with a retro fetish.
>>215700346actually kino
>>215700647If by "retro" you mean a classic story about a white guy avenging the death of his family which used to be a staple among action movies until people like you started wanting something more "cerebral" and subversive, then yes it's for people with a retro fetish.
>>215701237It's literally about toxic masculinity, and in a real numb way. Retro, as in relying on those shitty aesthetics.
>>215700346Heard Rich Evan's voice and immediately stood up and yelled "OH MY GOD!"
>>215701284>It's literally about toxic masculinitybrainlet take, maybe some female movie critic said that, in reality the cult leader doesn't have any masculine traits, quite the opposite.
>>215700203Do like I did and put the play speed on x4 until a very specific moment. You'll know when it comes.After that you can watch the rest on x1, it's better
>>215701296>googled that name>made me reconsider stance on eugenics Fuck's sake.
>>215701365Keep coping.
>>215701408Good post, now leave this thread in shame.
When the bottle of Robotussin you were supposed to drink before the movie started kicks in
>>215701446Nigga, your entire existence is shame. That's why you like this numale garbage movie about tough beardy guy taking down evil toxic white man church cult. Go impale yourself on a dildo or something.
>>215700203>When does it get good?It doesn't. The first half hour is the good bit.
>>215701518>t-the villain is a white guy, that's woke!Do you have a problem with Commando too?>b-but Bennet is a white army man that means you should hate white masculine men!
>>215700203Guy gets revenge on cult weirdos, kool aid colors, the end
This movie had bad pacing, plotting and editing problems that completely stole the film's energy. Too many bad scenes in the mix. The best fight was in the middle. The most interesting antagonists were the secondary ones.Some of the weirdness in their domestic life in the beginning tipped the movie's hand too early.The psychedelica was handled very well.As far as performances go, it's just a case of if you still find Nic Cage freakouts to be interesting. If you do, it's good and takes up enough space in the flick.If you don't the film takes one more big step towards a misfire.
>>215700203Maybe movies just aren't for you. Have you tried tik tok at all?
>>215701917Zoomers were a mistake.
>>215701284holy bait..
>>215701917>>215700203>I prefer the clear cut exposition of a Quentin Tarantino as well. Gnostic allegory B-movies are a dime a dozen, however good they look.
>>215702020There's no movie that can't be argued as a gnostic allegory because it's slopPaddington Bear 2 is a gnostic allegoryThroat Fuckers 14 is a gnostic allegoryThis post you are reading is a gnostic allegory
>>215701981Agreed. How does a group of people obsessed with over analyzing everything always have such brainless takes.
>>215700203I was so drugged up, I think when the acid dealer and the tiger shows up.. btw it's fucking amaze balls, no wonder you can see it being straight.
>>215700203It’s not for youI’m not throwing shade or dunking on you or even clapping backBut not every film is for every viewer and this movie just isn’t for you.
>>215700203>When does it get good?At the beginning, when you're listening to King Crimson
>>215700346Wish this nigga would get proper cinematography I liked his garbage pail kids flick (whatever it’s called). But it looked so cheap. Not the special effects but the entire film looked like a Nickelodeon show from early 2000sIf you want to do an 80s retro film it should LOOK like it
>>215700203Its a long boring set up for revenge, but the kills aren't that interesting. Its a very nice visual and audio movie but its story sucks and its action is boring.
>>215700203One of my all time favorites. One of the few movies who builds atmosphere so dense you feel engulfed. /tv/ will always shit on it because they have never loved nor experienced another realm of reality.
>>215700203It doesn't. It's hipster trash
>>215703205>/tv/ will always shit on it because they have never loved nor experienced getting a rectal reaming.ftfy
>>215700203The first hour is really slow, then it goes completely batshit.
>>215704644The first hour is completely hypnotic, when Mandy is introduced to Sand it's one of the best representations of being under the influence of hallucinogens ever. When her face starts to transpose over his and back is kino. The second half sacrifices some of the mood at times
