I thought the opening scenes did a good job nailing how alienating going to college is for the socially awkward. otherwise it didn't really work.
Jacob Edwards
I thought it succeeded as a thriller/mystery but it failed as a horror.
Robert Kelly
Just don't go into any horror movie expecting it to be a horror and you won't be disappointed.
Isaac Clark
i like how in this pic they look like girls you had in class in high school and not famous actresses.

Thomasin is the awkward shut-in sister who stays in her room all day and sneaks down for food at night
Anya is the slutty stacey who brings home a different guy every week and makes sure Thomasin can hear them fuck
Kayden Ramirez
There's some great direction and creative camerawork, the colours are gorgeous, it's an interesting story (although it kind of falls apart near the end) and the acting is really good for the most part. It just doesn't excel at anything - there's nothing Edgar Wright does here that he hasn't done better in other movies. Also it's not scary and the reliance on jumpscares is irritating.
Blake Young
Edgar Wright should have decided if he wanted to tell a "let's solve a mystery with my supernatural insight" story or a "am I seeing ghosts or am I just insane?" story. He kind of tries to do both at the same time and it doesn't work.
Josiah Ramirez
There are plenty of horror films which succeed as horror films. This isn't one of them. That said, I still enjoyed it.
How does the story fall apart near the end? It's a cohesive narrative.

How does Thomasin look older than her? kek

my neighbor's face looks like a combination of these two girls. her body is nothing special at all but i've been wondering if i should try to get her on a date. she's really awkward though, i honestly think she's a virgin and she'd probably not go for it
Adam Cook
I think it needed more interracial fuckee suckee scenes

>How does the story fall apart near the end?
It just doesn't come together very neatly.
There's a whole gaslighting theme throughout the story and they keep questioning whether the protagonist has gone insane, but that whole aspect of the film basically dropped once they reveal that the ghosts are 100% real and have an appreciable effect on our world.
The ending of the climax is a bit rushed and it gives off the impression that the protagonist / film are condoning all the murders, which I don't think was Edgar Wright's intention at all.
There's the whole thing about how the bitchy old roommate may have spiked the protagonist's drink at the Halloween party but it's never resolved and the film just seems to forget about it.
Also there's some distracting logic problems - e.g. how could the singer have murdered all those people and stored their bodies etc. whilst also having tenants?
I really enjoyed the movie but it does have problems.
James Ward
The best part was seeing Thomasin in a bra but overall it's just a complete mess. The black kid puts up with way too much insanity from Thomasin and the movie is kind of aimless until the end when it just turns retarded.
Jordan Smith
Wtf I love puppets now youtube.com
Oliver Myers
Oh and the camera tricks back and forth between Anya and Thomasin are neat if you are into that. That is the end of my review.
Jackson Cook
unfortunately this wasn't the scenario of the movie.
when the very first info about the movie came out I unironically thought it would be some kind of grounded character study about two contrasting girls on the town, turns out the movie in my head was better than the one that got made.
Asher Gonzalez
The black kid was an insanely simpy wet blanket though. It kind of makes sense that he'd put up with it - although I agree he gets over her freakout in the bedroom and trying to stab people with scissors in the library extremely quickly.
Thomas Sanders
it was honestly more embarrassing than if he had been a chav stereotype.
Brayden Parker
Post the scene where she gets BLACKED
Ethan Scott
Incredible premise and Edgar Wright's obviously a very skilled filmmaker who can make some entertaining sequences, but the story just kind of meanders and when they reveal everything behind the mystery it just seems really dumb.
Nathaniel Brooks
I didn’t watch it
Blake Sullivan
>trying to get into Thomasin's pants
>don't tell her for weeks you can drive
>don't pretend you own your own car
even the biggest autist in the world is going to know to do these things.
Benjamin Martinez
They're in London where he was born & raised, having a car isn't worth shit.
Christian Sanders

she's so cute bros

I just found out about the existence of ‘Lucy Lewis Can’t Lose’
Alexander Gomez
It seemed empty overall and not nearly as rewatchable as his other films. Baby Driver was the same. Does Wright suck without Pegg?
Ryder Ortiz
Shit movie. Why do they paint old Anya as the good guy and shit on all the men she killed?
Evan Jones
>There's a whole gaslighting theme throughout the story and they keep questioning whether the protagonist has gone insane, but that whole aspect of the film basically dropped once they reveal that the ghosts are 100% real and have an appreciable effect on our world.
nothing wrong with that. I suppose he could have left it ambiguous but that would require an entirely different ending.
>The ending of the climax is a bit rushed and it gives off the impression that the protagonist / film are condoning all the murders, which I don't think was Edgar Wright's intention at all.
I think that very much was the intent. She went through with her dresses inspired by Sandy's and the general 60's motif. At the end of the film, during a very happy moment in Elly's life, she sees Sandy in the mirror. The other time that she saw someone in the mirror it was her mother, who she loved. That's enough for me.
As for the rest, the halloween party thing is unimportant imo. And I'm fairly sure that Sandie wasn't boarding tenants during her murder spree. The bigger question there is how fucking incompetent were the police not to solve dozens of murders all committed in the same part of town?
I'll agree it's not perfect and with the way the movie started I definitely did not expect it to end the way it did but at the end of the day I thought it was largely done well. The story could have been much more interesting for sure. After the scene with the mirror I thought that it was going to be a conflict between Sandy and Ellie with Sandy somehow trying to take her place and trap her in the 60's.

I want to cum inside ana, but im not watching that movie, looks like wright's worst
Daniel Jenkins
the black kid is a turbo simp
Thomasin was at least nice to him whenever she wasn't being crazy. Some men put up with far worse for pussy.
Joshua Hughes
There's no way that the insane hallucinating and screaming fit when they were about to have sex followed almost immediately by her trying to stab the old flatmate with scissors wouldn't have driven him away, I don't care how much of a simp he is.
Colton Baker
can Edgar Wright stop trying to make serious movies and just stick to Comedy again?
Levi Ortiz
He is supposed to be the libshit paragon of male (romantic) companionship. 100% good, pure, kind, sensitive, patient, caring, thoughtful, loyal, simpy, forgiving, trusting, nonthreatening and black.

Elijah Wilson
literally every white male is Le Bad, I mean everyone, main cast, random side characters, even extras
>charming Taxi driver is a perv
>College guys at bar are pervs
>College guy at bar is a perv
>Doctor who turns out to be a perv and a pimp
>All the clients are white
>The vice cop who tried to save Anya turns out to be a perv as well, who is described as "handsy" and is shown frequenting a brothel
>White male cops don't believe Elly and laugh at her in the bathroom. Only the female cop is supportive
Elly doesn't even have a father to act as a counterexample of a good white man, so the onlyy positive male characte is the black guy, who is 100% pure good kind friendly support live patient trusting and helpful, he is portrayed as being incapable of doing wrong,
Cameron Clark
i don't watch any movie starring women, unless it's a snuff film or a porno

Refute a word of it.
Grayson Campbell
Yeah fuckin weird and crazy that a story about people who exploit sex workers in 1960s London would feature a high volume of unpleasant white male characters.
Cameron Bailey
>Waaaaah the only positively-portrayed character in the movie wasn't the race I wanted
I thought you retards hated diversity quotas?
Gavin Myers
I love everything sixties and the movie had a good aesthetic but it was kinda shit otherwise. Good whenever Anya was onscreen basically
Logan Jenkins
That’s one fugly genetic abomination
Justin Miller
The white male cop who is investigating her and trying to get her real name makes a legitimate offer to help Sandy and warns her that bad shit will happen if she stays on her path, which comes true.
As for the Johns, it definitely shows at least one black one and it only shows a few that treated her poorly. All of them ended up dead regardless. And then as spirits they warned Thomasin of the danger.
There's a such thing as nuance. The only characters without moral ambiguity in the film are Thomasin's boss at the bar who is nothing but good to her and the black kid although you could argue he is just trying to get into her pants. Stop looking at things through your /pol/ glasses. Sometimes a movie is just a movie.
Aaron Jenkins
I like Giallo movies (even the bad ones), so I enjoyed this shit.
Eli Young
Dishonest filmmaking.

Who's that goober running around with his hand on the cameraman's waist? Looks kinds gay ngl
