I'm Your Woman (2020)
Beautiful film
A great experience throughout. I thoroughly enjoyed the relationships and the slow burn of what would happen when someone is on the run. The acting is incredible and captivating.
The Laundromat (2019)
A slow and steady train wreck
The beginning was interesting but the narration with Oldman and Banderas was unbareable. I realize their characters were there to lighten the mood and explain what is happening but I hated listening to them. The story structure was all over the place. I wasn't invested in anyone besides Streep's character and when she was absent I didn't care. Also having her play the woman in Panama was distracting and confusing. You could tell it was Streep right away. There is also a mishmash of short stories strung together with people you'll never care about throughout the entire film. I almost turned it off a few times but I stayed til the end and it was not worth it. Not only did the end "explain" what we just witnessed but it had a strange monologue by Streep as herself to prove a point about corruption; which felt out of place, preachy and pretentious. I hated every minute of that ending. It could have been great with the subject matter. Instead it was dry, disorienting, over indulgent and annoying. Watch the first 20 minutes then turn it off. My eyebrows have been furrowed for nearly an hour now.
The Perfect 46 (2014)
Excruciating
This film had an interesting concept, but lacked all elements that make a film watchable. The dialogue alone made me want to pull my hair out. It takes question and answer dialogue to a whole new meaningless level. The lead actor had no connection to anything and was excruciating to watch. The ending was so anticlimactic and predictable, but also confusing and cliché'. I'm confused as to what the director was trying to say with this film. There wasn't any address to why the main character wanted this so badly. If he wanted to just help people, why did he charge money for the service? Did he hate having OCD so much that he created this formula? And why was the OCD never mentioned? I was counting down the minutes for this boring, pointless film to just end.
