Hit Man (2023)
If Glen Powell was a publicly traded security, I'd buy
This film was a ton of fun - a smart script, witty dialogue, lots of laughs, lots of twists and turns, two incredibly watchable stars with great chemistry, and some interesting themes on who we are and our capacity to change. Glen Powell is on a meteoric rise and will be an A-lister in no time (he cowrote the screenplay?! Super impressive)
Honestly they don't make many movies like this these days - it's a clever screwball dark comedy with some whodunit elements that ropes you right in. Ever find yourself checking the time when you're watching a movie in a theater? Not with this one; it left me wanting more.
I Saw the TV Glow (2024)
I wanted so badly to like it
It features many dynamite indie rockers (both in cameos and musically), it started off great with interesting characters and EXCELLENT aesthetics - as a millennial, I felt a lot of nostalgia for similar shows I used to watch growing up. Ultimately though, the story fell apart and offered little substance.
The film has an interesting and societally relevant theme, but I think that's where this falls flat - a great film may elicit the response:
"That was a great story - what were its most prominent themes?"
But instead I found myself asking:
"That was an interesting theme - what were its most prominent plot lines?"
