🤣🤣🤣 I love this video and I FEEL your frustration D! I knew it would be a musical, but I didn't know it would be...a MUSICAL and like you said it didn't progress the story, just dragged it out which is a terrible combination considering the first was NOT. That ending ticked me off more than I'd like to admit. Literally the DISRESPECT! 😂😂

I am in the minority that liked this movie. It was bloated in length to tell a simple character story. I felt it followed up on the previous one rather seamlessly. It has more in common with the downbeat works of Bob Fosse or Dennis Potter. To me it felt like an exercise in subversion of that type of story. Arthur has almost zero efficacy as a character and I was compelled by that. They needed to trim the songs or at least perform them in a strange creative way. Like Fosse did with Big Spender in Sweet Charity.

There are definitely a lot of folks that connected to this one. I do wish the musical aspects was handled a lot better. Like you said, delving into the strange creativity would have served this a lot better and improve the experience for me.

Someone had apparently replied to me but seems to have deleted their comment. But to sum up it said how can I comment on a movie I haven’t seen. To that person, it’s actually pretty easy. I open up my phone and then click comment and make said comment. But in all seriousness someone can easily judge something without experiencing it. Just as I know eating live spiders isn’t going to be a great time I can easily say, nope that’s gross. Not for me. and just like this movie after seeing the trailer I knew it was a no. Am I going to give it a bad review somewhere. No.

Oh, definitely! I'm unclear on why people come sideways at other people in comment sections over their opinions. I remember when one of my friends gave a bad review of a film I already wasn't interested in seeing. When I said it confirmed what I already thought of it, then some random person said it was "so sad I couldn't think for myself and only relied on other people's opinions." I thought that was hilarious.

@DMovieman3 ай бұрын
It's totally okay and I'd understand even if you did, because we do seem to be on opposing sides with this one. 🥲🥲🥲 I didn't enjoy the pacing and structure of the story with the musical piece, because it didn't feel integrated well. Instead of highlighting the mindset of the characters and their perspective of the world (à la Chicago), it felt more like a distraction from key moments of character development. I loved all the courtroom drama and information, and I wasn't looking for something with a bunch of kills and action. But my expectation for how that would all blend together were a lot higher compared to the actual execution.
