Absolute madness. I am huge Nathan fan and I was setting my expectations low due to all the hype. It certainly lived up and left my jaw on the floor by the end. Holy hell there’s so many layers to this movie… I’m also glad I watched it in theater. It had been a few years since I’ve been to the movies and this one was def an experience.

Bruh, I can't even remember for sure the last time I went to the actual movies. Like a movie theater.
It was definitely pre-covid and I think it may have been to see Jordan Peele's US
Anyway, I went to see this last night and holy shit I think this might be the best movie I've ever seen. And I'm so glad I saw it in a movie theater on opening night.
This movie is An Experience.
It started out kinda slow and within the first 20 mins or so I was worried I might end up regretting choosing to spend 3 hours watching a movie about Elizabeth Holmes.
In hindsight, I wonder if that was a trick/illusion of the magician himself, intentionally trying to play with the audience's mind. Bc almost right after I had that thought I was 100% locked in for the remainder of the movie.
I can't remember ever sitting through a movie in a theater before where at various points throughout a single movie, my fellow audience members had such a range of shared reactions: laughter, shocked audible gasps, angry wtfs, disgust, empathy. Then when it was all over, (and I mean this in the least sacrilegious way possible) the audience all got up and left in a dazed and heavy silence that I seriously can only compare to my memory of seeing Passion of the Christ.
Anyway, go see this movie.
Nathan Fielder does what he does best, but also gives shades of Alfred Hitchcock. I know that doesn't sound like a real description, but it is.
I hadn't heard anything about this, but it sounds pretty interesting. The Guardian's description makes it sound a little like 'F for Fake," which is pretty great.
I saw it today and it was great. I really appreciate a movie that actually leaves room for interpretation. Every 30 minutes or so it felt like the narrative was being turned on its head and it kept me at the edge of my seat like few movies of this length have. Definitely a movie I'll be thinking about for a while.
Why is this movie not planned for release in India.
Kinda a big English speaking market to skip out on.
Oh THAT'S who she is. I didn't connect the dots for so long. I really wasn't paying attention to any of this. But I remember now.
What part of speech is the word "doc" in that headline?
