Sorry, but if you're posting on social media instead of watching the movie, is it really a good movie?

See you at the end.
Yeah that ending was a trash fire
Make sure all reviews are set to music!
Okay, I like music and musicals. I've known every song so far. 1:14 in.
Wait. They're all preexisting songs, not written for the movie?
Yeah itβs popular music
Oh damn. I haven't seen it, but I had no idea it was a jukebox musical. That's so much worse.
Ugh!
That's the lazy kind of musical.
I'm not usually a fan of those.
So, final score?
Updated the post if you want to see
Thanks!
I also wondered, is Lee dead after the phone message and he just fantasies the rest? I'm guessing the director left that up to interpretation.
The kids came home and I put them to bed. I wanted to finish but I was tired and it was almost an hour so I decided on an intermission.
It's a good movie. Don't know why it was so panned.
panned
?
"Critically panned" means to receive a poor critical response. I tried looking for the etymology, but couldn't find anything convincing... It seems to have started as something to do with panning for gold (i.e. using a literal pan to sift through dirt looking for gold flakes), but I can't see where that shifted from "looking for small bits of good in mostly dirt" to "this straight up sucks".
Thank you
?
Lowest-effort comment ever. A single character.
A dictionary's a thing. Looking it up may require typing a second letter - and then a third! - but it's good practice.
Not as low effort as going all in on scolding someone over the most trivial comment ever
Breath in breath out homie, you're gonna pop a blood vessel
I almost erased this movie from my mind and you have to bring it up again?
Quentin Tarantino liked it. John Waters liked it.
I respect the opinion of those two legendary film makers over any amount of loud mouth social media shitstorm enablers who got their knickers twisted because the movie didn't conform to their idea of a sequel.
It is a good movie. And I'm tired of pretending it's not.
8/10 film
Tiktok brains couldn't handled the slow burn
