The Bad Batch (2016)
Massively underrated gem of a movie!
I really don't understand why this movie has such a low score. The acting is superb, utilizing star actors like Jim Carrey (who I didn't even recognize), Keanu Reeves and Giovani Ribisi in small characteristic roles, while putting full weight of the movie onto Suki and Momoa, which they all perform to the highest grade.
This movie is uneasy and strange in many ways and after the shocker of first 10 minutes you don't even know what to expect.
At the end the whole movie feels like something you have never seen, yet somehow (on the feeling level?) reminds you of Tideland and Wristcutters: A Love Story. It is completely off-beat, sometimes awkward, sometimes beautiful, funny and scary, but definitely gripping.
Just as a cherry on the top, the music ties it all into something of a must see!
P.S. If you like Die Antwoord it gives you several pleasant surprises! ;)
