I don't care what anyone says; I love this movie and it still holds up today. Was ready for it to be a teenage nerd's wet dream, but it's so goddamn stylish and satisfying to watch I can't do anything but love it.

Thought this would be fine for Tabitha (6) but she was still a little young for it. As usual, not the parts I'd expect, but still it wasn't really what I'd call a success.
The visuals, story, performances and soundtrack are all brilliant, in my opinion, though. It's been so long since I last saw this but it's one of those that is going to be great forever, I think.

Films like this are one of the reasons I try to avoid extended trailers and spoilers of any kind. I had no idea what it was going to be about and watching it felt like a rollercoaster. Loved it.

Wasn't for me. There's a lot to like about this film: the soundtrack, suspense, comedy. Jordan Peele seems to be skilled at making people believable. But the story and lore left me thoroughly frustrated. I'd love to ask Jordan Peele some questions but I don't think he could give me satisfying answers.

It's a lie. It's sweet, but it's a lie. We don't benefit from lying to children that one strong outcast is going to solve all our problems. One bull who refuses to fight isn't going to stop the concept of bullfighting, so why lie about it?
If you're the sort of person who can watch a giant lie and not feel guilty for concealing the truth, this is for you. If not; avoid it, because you're going to have some stuff to explain to your child.

It's just sad. So many potential scientists, if they could just get out of their own way. So many people who just want to belong somewhere.

Absolutely perfect. Honestly one of the best things I've seen recently. There's a reason that so much pop culture takes elements from this. It's just brilliant, I wouldn't change any of it.

Totally side-swiped by this. Very well-executed, and some properly funny moments. Loved the style and a great soundtrack. I don't think it would survive a rewatch, but then I also don't think every film has to.

Thinks it's John Wick, Smokin' Aces and Leon, but it's no John Wick, Smokin' Aces or Leon. Was ready to love this but it's too long and too stupid.

Never enjoyed any of his comedy before, but liked this a lot, and had a nice ending I wasn't expecting.

I'm going to be honest here I don't think I really know what this is trying to say, but I was glued to it the entire time.

I don't think I get the Austrian/Nazi invasion setting for this film. It's so selectively referenced that I think you could lose 30 minutes of this already exceptionally long film and just make it about a father discovering his love for his children.
I love all the music, though.

It takes everything the original set up, builds on it and exceeds it in every way. I could talk about this film for hours but I won't. I absolutely love it.
