EPTThough Adam Driver being in it automatically makes me give the film a chance, one of the more exciting actors right now.

They are going around claiming any hype videos on Youtube that include any footage of trailers etc. The biggest Dune channels on the internet are on the verge of giving up on the movie altogether because their videos are all getting demonetized or removed. I never really followed the DC universe, but is this what happened with that too? | ||

Its a unique film. Shot in black and white, and very English in its sensibility, Muscle is an examination of a certain kind of toxic masculinity. Simon is a mild mannered call centre worker whose empty life and relationship push him to start going to the gym. There he meets Terry, an ex-army, ex-convict personal trainer (or grifter?) who promises to sort him out. Before long Terry has insinuated himself into the remains of Simon's life and moves in to his house, where he starts hosting parties that seem to get more and more extreme, culminating in a sex party that appears to have been a genuine sex party that let the director and actors join in. Its dark, ambiguous, atmospheric film. Definitely worth a watch if you can find it. A warning though, its very explicit. 7.5/10 Trailer: + Show Spoiler + | ||

The story was bonkers, completely nonsensical and adding Cena in the mix is just plain weird. 3.5/10, 4/10 at best. No Sudden Move on the other hand I REALLY enjoyed. Not spilling too much if anything about the story but that's a solid 8/10. Wrath of Man with Jason Statham was pretty good too, 7.5/10. I'd rate Mr. Nobody (the movie that was greatly inspired by John Wick) as a solid 8/10, some hilarious moments in there as well. Arrival however was a solid 9/10 for me and I really recommend it to everyone, it's a relatively peaceful movie but just so well written (imo), it's about aliens delivering/sharing something with mankind, s'all I'm going to say about it, it's definitely a must watch. | ||

Guess it had to be a part of the movie for the story to be complete. Can't fault em for doing it, didn't feel like it took anything away. | ||

Feel it didn't dominate the film, but illustrated the concept of time loops and an understable way, that for me was moving and thought provoking. Would you allow yourself to love if you knew how and when you lose it. | ||
