My mom: “This is the worst role I’ve seen Robert Mitchum in”
Still greatly enjoy it. Story is still very potent and the technical aspects are too die for.
I’m bringing this down half a star from my original rating last year, but only because some character choices and direction are really questionable and annoying, in my opinion.
Honestly, I’m surprised with how much I enjoyed this!
Not only am I easily entertained by people getting lost in dense & eerie forests, but the addition of Scandinavian witchcraft and ancient folklore only heightened the experience for me.
Overall, quite good!
A reflection of one's past, and the people and situations that make a person who they are.
Scorsese has brought us a very mature and thoughtful mob film. It's not as exciting as maybe he would've done in the past (Goodfellas), and it is quite a slow film; but the great thing is though, those things don't matter.
He's not here to get our blood pumping and to hit us with the ol' razzle dazzle. But goodness he does it…
Hazy, confused and full of conspiracy.
So much to uncover that I can’t really go over with my first viewing.
But yeah... this is it chief. Most definitely IT.
A24 needs to apologize for the way they treated this release.
