The Peanut Butter Falcon reviewed by Mark Kermode

[@willdavey6570]

this film was beautifully shot. the scenery, settings and camera framework is amazing

[@stequis]

Fired up BBC2 and caught the start of Peanut Butter Falcon, wow when you finish watching a film and feel better for watching it, that's an excellent thing. A high quality film, very well shot and the story draws you in, you believe it. Shia has a reputation similar to Miley Cyrus, disliked 'just because'. His acting is high quality and so is everyone else's, the cast fits perfectly, bravo.

[@Flypidge]

Obviously zack was great but Shia LaBeouf was incredible and subtle in this film.

[@TulilaSalome]

Shia laBeouf has actually done some interesting art in the contemporary art scene, while Transformer's fans have labeled him just crazy. I cannot say I have enjoyed his films, but maybe this would be an exception.

[@benging]

its a wonderful movie and has given me enormous respect for LaBeouf

[@lindboknifeandtool]

He’s an artist, simple as that. A good one too. Is he annoying, what good artist isn’t. Their personal life is beside the point completely.

4:40 - teacher/pupil vibe lol

[@usedfuzzbox]

Been looking forward to this for the last few months, and have really become a big fan of Shia Lebeouf's.

[@LurkerCH]

The film has completely passed me by. But having now seen three reviews by critics I respect (including this channel), who all say similar positive things about it; I'm gonna get it as soon as it comes out next month 👍

Love this movie makes me smile after watching it so warm.

Great review of an excellent movie

This is on iplayer at the moment. I watched it last week. I thought it was charming. Which is how Mark describes it here.

[@jackwitcombe765]

Loved this film.

[@portaccio]

Check out Shia Lebeouf on Hot Ones on KZbin. I've only ever read negative stuff about him but he came across like a bit of a legend.

[@Luvie1980]

Legend? Now you are reaching!

Havent seen it but it makes me think of Mud with Matthew McConaughey

[@eon14873]

Great touching film. Genuine

[@matthewmccaul3314]

This new Marvel movie looks a bit weird.

[@dexterbudd1589]

Did Simon get a haircut or something?

[@frogman562]

This film had all the right moves, but something was missing. I actually didn't think much of it. Many gave it 4 or 5 stars, which for me is reserved for films like the Shawshank Redemption. This is not a film on par with that.

[@tomhumphreys1666]

Just finished watching it (finally) and totally, totally agree. Felt it jumped from familiar narrative beat to familiar narrative beat, asking for emotional response from the audience but without having given any depth, edge or fresh angles to warrant it. Many scenes 'looked' the part, but 'felt' totally empty, right?

[@jamesphillips5926]

Holes , Transformers and A guide to Recognising your Saints . Shia killed in all three . And three good movies .

[@timothyw98]

Bit like Call of the Wilder people.

[@ricknilson1]

Timothy, I heard or read that somewhere else.

[@rosstee]

Think you mean Hunt for the Wilderpeople, the one with Sam Neill?

[@rdcanyon]

@@rosstee it's way better than that one

[@thediscokidd]

That’s exactly what I thought. Both great films. X

[@pacman_birthmark]

@@thediscokidd Absolutely. Falcon is darker and harsher, but equally as hopeful and uplifting. I love both films.

[@johntaylorson7769]

...Nah. It's a lovely, sweet, nice film, with a great soundtrack and fantastic cinematography, but it's really let down by plot contrivances and uneven mood- plus a cop-out ending. It was a joy to watch, but could have been so much better.

[@frogman562]

@@nicknewman7848 I agree. It was trying hard to be something, but it didn't hit the mark.

[@oliverdevine2181]

Kermode. Up your game. Just watched this and shocked to hear how much you like this. The plot is frustratingly predictable and the characters all rather two dimensional. The locations are nice, but after a series like True Detective (set in similar landscape), nice doesn't cut it. The film felt like it should have been so much more, but I was left with a sense the script had really let the film down.

[@alm5966]

Maybe he's just better at seeing the charm of a movie than you are.

[@pacman_birthmark]

@@alm5966 Spot on. Not every film has to be heavy and hard hitting. Such an arrogant original comment. Bet they detested Hunt for the Wilderpeople. 😂

[@SwazersC]

Thank God your opinon is in the minority, Oliver. The film is all about love & finding redemption, a new purpose. The film touched my heart & maybe you should let your guard down. The cycnical world we live in has disconnected us from the human emotions we all need & crave. Our true purpose as beings of light, is that we can lift others up . By doing so we can save ourselves in the process.

[@oliverdevine2181]

@@SwazersC I'll cop to it being a bit of an arrogant comment. I think I remember that my real trouble with the film was that I didn't believe in any of the characters so I had no emotional connection

[@frogman562]

@@SwazersC if you want to see a film that this film aspires to be (and fails) see the Shawshank Redemption. This film does not quite cut it.

Looks like a movie to warm Shia back in with the public. Not biting. It's a pass for me.
